Today is Pratipada (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Posh — Shanivara, governed by Ardra. Pratipada is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 10:07 AM to 11:14 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:04 PM–12:40 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
