Today is Dwadashi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of પોષ — Somavara, governed by Bharani. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 8:29 AM to 9:50 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:09 PM–12:52 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
