Today is Trayodashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Kartik — Shanivara, governed by Chitra. Trayodashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 9:30 AM to 10:55 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (11:57 AM–12:42 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is પ્રદોષ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
