Today is Chaturdashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Ashwin — Mangalavara, governed by Hasta. Chaturdashi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 3:17 PM to 4:44 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:00 PM–12:46 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is શિવ ચૌદસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
