An easy-does-it day
Reading the day
- Friday · Venus’s day
- Favours the arts and music, romance and marriage, jewellery, clothing, and comforts.
- Purva Bhadrapada · Ugra (fierce) star
- The Moon’s star suits confrontation, demolition, weapons, and surgical operations — not gentle beginnings.
- Jaya (victory) tithi
- A tithi for contest — competition, litigation, and assertive starts.
- Vishti (Bhadra) karana is running — auspicious beginnings are traditionally deferred until it ends; see the karana row for the time.
- Disha Shool sits in the west — travellers traditionally avoid beginning a journey toward the west today.
