Today is Dwadashi (Shukla Paksha) in the month of અષાઢ — Guruvara, governed by Jyeshtha. Dwadashi is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 2:24 PM to 4:03 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:18 PM–1:11 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is બારસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
