Today is Dwadashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of ચૈત્ર — Somavara, governed by Dhanishtha. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 8:16 AM to 9:47 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:23 PM–1:11 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
