8th Muhurat
The middle one = Abhijit
Each muhurat is ~48 minutes. Since sunrise shifts daily, so does Abhijit.
What the Texts Say
The Muhurta Chintamani, a 16th-century treatise on electional astrology, defines Abhijit as the 8th muhurat of the day—the midpoint between sunrise and sunset. This places it when the Sun is at its peak.
"Ruled by Lord Hari (Vishnu), this window carries the promise of preservation and success. Classical texts call it 'sarva-karya-siddhi'—favorable for all undertakings."
— Muhurta Chintamani, Ch. 3
In Hyderabad, today's Abhijit window runs from 12:07 PM to 12:52 PM IST, calculated from local sunrise at 6:47 AM.
The Hidden 28th Star
There are 27 nakshatras in the standard lunar calendar. But old texts speak of a 28th—Abhijit, meaning "the victorious."
The Mahabharata (Vana Parva, Ch. 230) records that Abhijit, the younger sister of Rohini, once left her position in the sky to perform austerities on earth. This created a gap in the celestial order, and Krittika moved up to take her place.
Astronomers link Abhijit to Vega—one of the brightest stars, once a pole star around 12,000 BCE. Though no longer in the main nakshatra belt, Abhijit's influence persists through this daily muhurat.
— Mahabharata, Vana Parva 230:8-11
