Today is Chaturthi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Kartik — Mangalavara, governed by Rohini. Chaturthi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 3:26 PM to 4:53 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:09 PM–12:56 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is સંકષ્ટ ચોથ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
