Shukla Paksha
Today's Panchang Summary General information only — not personal advice.
It's Navami of Shukla Paksha, in the month of Kartik. Today falls on a Mangalavara, traditionally ruled by Mars, with the Moon resting in Shravana nakshatra. Navami is considered an auspicious tithi, so it's a good day for new beginnings, ceremonies, or important decisions. Between 3:17 PM and 4:44 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 12:01 PM to 12:47 PM — a good slot for anything important.
Navami is the 9th day of Shukla Paksha in the month of Kartik. Ninth day — good for weapons, machinery and valor In the Gujarati Amanta tradition, months end on Amavasya (new moon).
Shula is one of 27 Yogas in Vedic astrology, calculated from the combined longitudes of Sun and Moon. Pain — avoid important decisions The Moon is in Shravana Nakshatra (Pada 3) — Listening, learning energy — favors education, communication, and spiritual knowledge.
