Today is Chaturthi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Margashirsh — Somavara, governed by Purva Ashadha. Chaturthi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 8:19 AM to 9:40 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:02 PM–12:45 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is ચોથ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
