Today is Chaturdashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Maha — Mangalavara, governed by Purva Ashadha. Chaturdashi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 3:38 PM to 5:00 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:30 PM–1:15 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is શિવ ચૌદસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
