Today is a Sunday (Ravivar), ruled by the Sun. The Moon is in the impulsive and fiery sign of Aries (Mesh) under the intense Bharani Nakshatra. It is Chaitra Shukla Chaturthi. A highly powerful, yet challenging 'Vaidhriti Yoga' is active today, which makes it a complicated day for major initiations without astrological guidance.

The three main planets are Mars (Mangal) for bravery and uniform, Sun (Surya) for government authority, and Jupiter (Guru) for administrative wisdom and law.

Lord Rama offered a precious ring, given to him by Mata Sita, as the fare for crossing the river. However, Kevat humbly refused it.

Devotees generally observe a strict fast from sunrise until the Puja is completed. Many choose to observe a "Phalahar" fast, where they consume only fruits, milk, and specific Vrat items (like Sabudana or Kuttu). Grains and salt are usually avoided.
