Today is Chaturdashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Chaitra — Budhavara, governed by Purva Bhadrapada. Chaturdashi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 12:45 PM to 2:16 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:21 PM–1:10 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is શિવ ચૌદસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
