Auspicious
11:46 AM – 12:33 PM
No festival or vrat falls today for your region.
That is a real answer, not a gap — most days of the year are ordinary days,
and a calendar that always has something to sell you is not a calendar.
Coming up
- Shukla Shashti in 4 days Fri, 7 Oct
- Masik Durgashtami in 6 days Sun, 9 Oct
- Papankusha Ekadashi in 9 days Wed, 12 Oct

10:59 AM – 12:33 PM, 2:53 PM – 4:27 PM
