Today is Dwadashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of કારતક — Shukravara, governed by Hasta. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 10:57 AM to 12:21 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (11:59 AM–12:44 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
