An easy-does-it day
Reading the day
Jaya (victory) tithi falling on Tuesday forms a Siddha yoga — an auspicious alignment of day and tithi.
- Tuesday · Mars’s day
- Favours courage, surgery, disputes over land or property, and work with metals and fire.
- Chitra · Mridu (soft) star
- The Moon’s star suits marriage, music, new clothes, friendship, and celebration.
- Jaya (victory) tithi
- A tithi for contest — competition, litigation, and assertive starts.
- The Vyatipata yoga runs today — its whole span is classically avoided for auspicious beginnings.
- Disha Shool sits in the north — travellers traditionally avoid beginning a journey toward the north today.
