Today is Saptami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Kartik — Shukravara, governed by Punarvasu. Saptami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 11:02 AM to 12:28 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:05 PM–12:51 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
