Today's Panchang Summary General information only — not personal advice.
It's Amavasya of Krishna Paksha, in the month of Bhadrapad. Today falls on a Mangalavara, traditionally ruled by Mars, with the Moon resting in Magha nakshatra. Amavasya is generally avoided for major new ventures — devotional activities are fine, but for big decisions, tomorrow may suit you better. Between 3:47 PM and 5:21 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 12:13 PM to 1:03 PM — a good slot for anything important. Vrat: અમાસ is observed today, an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
Amavasya is the 15th day of Krishna Paksha in the month of Bhadrapad. New Moon — sacred day for ancestral offerings (Pitru Tarpan) In the Gujarati Amanta tradition, months end on Amavasya (new moon).
