Today is Dwadashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Ashwin — Ravivara, governed by Purva Phalguni. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 4:52 PM to 6:20 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:07 PM–12:54 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
