Today is Dwadashi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of પોષ — Somavara, governed by Bharani. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 8:31 AM to 9:53 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:14 PM–12:58 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
