Today is Panchami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Chaitra — Shanivara, governed by Anuradha. Panchami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 9:41 AM to 11:13 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:21 PM–1:10 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
