Today is Dashami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Vaishakh — Mangalavara, governed by Purva Bhadrapada. Dashami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 3:59 PM to 5:37 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:16 PM–1:09 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
