Today is Navami (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Ashwin — Ravivara, governed by Purva Ashadha. Navami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 5:11 PM to 6:42 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:13 PM–1:01 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
