Today is Navami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Kartik — Ravivara, governed by Ashlesha. Navami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 4:47 PM to 6:13 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:06 PM–12:52 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
