Today is Amavasya (Krishna Paksha) in the month of પોષ — Somavara, governed by Mula. Amavasya is generally considered inauspicious for major new ventures. Rahu Kaal: 8:34 AM to 9:56 AM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:17 PM–1:01 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day. Today is અમાસ — an important fasting day in the Gujarati tradition.
