Today is Dashami (Krishna Paksha) in the month of Kartik — Shukravara, governed by Purva Phalguni. Dashami is an auspicious Tithi — favorable for new beginnings, ceremonies, and important decisions. Rahu Kaal: 11:01 AM to 12:24 PM — avoid starting new activities during this period. Abhijit Muhurta (12:02 PM–12:46 PM) is the most auspicious window of the day.
