Today is Navami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Kartik — Guruvara, governed by Magha. Navami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 1:54 PM to 3:17 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:09 PM–12:53 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
