Today is Chaturdashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Chaitra — Somavara, governed by Purva Bhadrapada. Chaturdashi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 8:08 AM to 9:41 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:23 PM–1:13 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is શિવ ચૌદસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
