Today is Pratipada (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Shravan — Guruvara, governed by Magha. Pratipada is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 2:20 PM to 3:56 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:18 PM–1:09 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
