Today is Dwadashi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of પોષ — Somavara, governed by Bharani. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 8:43 AM to 10:04 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:24 PM–1:08 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
