Today is Dashami (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Chaitra — Budhavara, governed by Ashlesha. Dashami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 12:38 PM to 2:12 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:13 PM–1:03 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
