Today is Navami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Ashadh — Guruvara, governed by Ashwini. Navami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 2:24 PM to 4:04 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:17 PM–1:11 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
