Today's Panchang Summary General information only — not personal advice.
It's Shashthi of Krishna Paksha, in the month of Margashirsh. Today falls on a Budhavara, traditionally ruled by Mercury, with the Moon resting in Magha nakshatra. Shashthi is a neutral tithi, suitable for routine work without any specific restriction. Between 12:31 PM and 1:52 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 12:09 PM to 12:52 PM — a good slot for anything important.
Shashthi is the 6th day of Krishna Paksha in the month of Margashirsh. Sixth day — good for courage and strength activities In the Gujarati Amanta tradition, months end on Amavasya (new moon).
Vaidhriti is one of 27 Yogas in Vedic astrology, calculated from the combined longitudes of Sun and Moon. Incoherence — avoid all auspicious activities The Moon is in Magha Nakshatra (Pada 1) — Regal, ancestral energy — ideal for honoring ancestors, leadership, and ceremonies.
