Today is Chaturdashi (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Chaitra — Mangalavara, governed by Shatabhisha. Chaturdashi is a neutral Tithi — suitable for routine activities. Rahu Kaal: 4:26 PM to 5:56 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (1:02 PM–1:50 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is શિવ ચૌદસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
