Today is Pratipada (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Shravan — Somavara, governed by Uttara Ashadha. Pratipada is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 7:43 AM to 9:23 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:17 PM–1:10 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
