Today is Amavasya (Krishna Paksha) in the month of ચૈત્ર — Guruvara, governed by Uttara Bhadrapada. Amavasya is generally considered inauspicious for major new ventures. Rahu Kaal: 2:17 PM to 3:48 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:22 PM–1:11 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is અમાસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
