Today is Panchami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Jyeshtha — Shanivara, governed by Purva Ashadha. Panchami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 9:18 AM to 10:56 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:08 PM–1:01 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
