Today is Saptami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Bhadrapad — Mangalavara, governed by Bharani. Saptami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 3:58 PM to 5:34 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:20 PM–1:11 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
