Today is Chaturthi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Ashadh — Budhavara, governed by Magha. Chaturthi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 12:44 PM to 2:25 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:17 PM–1:11 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is ચોથ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
