Today is Pratipada (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Shravan — Ravivara, governed by Dhanishtha. Pratipada is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 5:43 PM to 7:21 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:23 PM–1:15 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
