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: 8:00 AM to 9:36 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:23 PM–1:15 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
