Today's Panchang Summary
General information only — not personal advice.

It's Panchami of Krishna Paksha, in the month of Kartik. Today falls on a Budhavara, traditionally ruled by Mercury, with the Moon resting in Mrigashirsha nakshatra. Panchami is considered an auspicious tithi, so it's a good day for new beginnings, ceremonies, or important decisions. Between 12:23 PM and 1:50 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 12:00 PM to 12:46 PM — a good slot for anything important.
