Today is Dwitiya (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Chaitra — Somavara, governed by Ashwini. Dwitiya is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 8:10 AM to 9:42 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:23 PM–1:12 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
