Today is Trayodashi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Ashadh — Mangalavara, governed by Jyeshtha. Trayodashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 4:12 PM to 5:53 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:23 PM–1:17 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is પ્રદોષ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
