Today is Thursday, ruled by Jupiter (Guru), an expansive, auspicious day, suited for ceremonies, learning and new ventures. The tithi is Shukla Chaturdashi, the nakshatra Dhanishta, the yoga Shobhana and the karana Vanija (as of sunrise). The Moon moves through Makara (Capricorn) while the Sun sits in Simha (Leo). Sunrise 05:56, sunset 18:48 IST. Avoid beginning important new work during Rahu Kalam, 13:59 to 15:35; the Abhijit muhurta around midday, 11:56 to 12:48, is favourable for most undertakings.
