Today is Dwadashi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of કારતક — Shukravara, governed by Purva Bhadrapada. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 10:51 AM to 12:17 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (11:54 AM–12:40 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
