Today is Panchami (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Shravan — Somavara, governed by Chitra. Panchami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 8:01 AM to 9:38 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:26 PM–1:17 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
