Thursday, Shukla Shashthi of Bhadrapada, with the tithi running until 03:20 PM. No festival or major vratam falls today — an ordinary day, which is most of them.
Shukla Shashthi is a nanda — joyful tithi: Celebration and beginnings. The moon is in Anuradha, devotion that keeps its shape under pressure, holding until 12:24 AM, and the yoga is Vishkambha.
The day runs from 06:18 AM to 06:12 PM. Abhijit muhurta — the window centred on solar noon and held open to nearly anything — falls between 11:51 AM and 12:39 PM. Rahu kalam runs 01:44 PM to 03:14 PM.
