Today is Chaturdashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Ashadh — Mangalavara, governed by Rohini. Chaturdashi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 4:12 PM to 5:53 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:24 PM–1:18 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is શિવ ચૌદસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
