Reading the day

Friday · Venus’s day
Favours the arts and music, romance and marriage, jewellery, clothing, and comforts.
Rohini · Dhruva (fixed) star
The Moon’s star suits laying foundations, building, planting, and beginnings meant to endure.
Jaya (victory) tithi
A tithi for contest — competition, litigation, and assertive starts.
  • Disha Shool sits in the west — travellers traditionally avoid beginning a journey toward the west today.

Classical muhurta guidance for the day, calculated without AI. It is general guidance, not a substitute for an elected muhurat.
