Today is Panchami (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Shravan — Somavara, governed by Chitra. Panchami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 8:04 AM to 9:40 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:28 PM–1:20 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
