Today is Chaturdashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Ashwin — Budhavara, governed by Uttara Phalguni. Chaturdashi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 12:28 PM to 1:58 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:04 PM–12:52 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is શિવ ચૌદસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
