Today is Navami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Ashwin — Shukravara, governed by Ardra. Navami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 11:10 AM to 12:41 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:16 PM–1:05 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
