Today's Panchang Summary General information only — not personal advice.
It's Pratipada of Shukla Paksha, in the month of Ashadh. Today falls on a Budhavara, traditionally ruled by Mercury, with the Moon resting in Pushya nakshatra. Pratipada is considered an auspicious tithi, so it's a good day for new beginnings, ceremonies, or important decisions. Between 12:46 PM and 2:26 PM, Rahu Kaal will be in effect; elders advise against starting anything new during this window. The most auspicious moment of the day is Abhijit Muhurta, from 12:19 PM to 1:12 PM — a good slot for anything important.
Pratipada is the 1th day of Shukla Paksha in the month of Ashadh. First day of lunar fortnight — good for starting new activities In the Gujarati Amanta tradition, months end on Amavasya (new moon).
