Shukla Paksha
Today's Panchang Summary General information only — not personal advice.
It's Pratipada of Shukla Paksha, in the month of Vaishakh. Today falls on a Shukravara, traditionally ruled by Venus, with the Moon resting in Krittika nakshatra. Pratipada is considered an auspicious tithi, so it's a good day for new beginnings, ceremonies, or important decisions. Between 10:57 AM and 12:35 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 1:01 PM — a good slot for anything important.
Pratipada is the 1th day of Shukla Paksha in the month of Vaishakh. First day of lunar fortnight — good for starting new activities In the Gujarati Amanta tradition, months end on Amavasya (new moon).
Saubhagya is one of 27 Yogas in Vedic astrology, calculated from the combined longitudes of Sun and Moon. Good fortune — excellent for all auspicious events The Moon is in Krittika Nakshatra (Pada 1) — Sharp, purifying energy — favors courage, cutting through obstacles, and fire rituals.
