Today is Champak Dwadashi, a day dedicated to offering Champa flowers to Lord Krishna. It also marks the beginning of the Vat Savitri Vrat (for the Purnima Paksha tradition). Additionally, it is the day of the Barhe Mela in Bhatinda, Anti-Drug Day, and Muharram.

Rahu is the primary planet for distractions, illusions, and lack of focus. If Rahu afflicts the 5th House, the 5th Lord, or the Moon (which controls the mind), the child will easily lose interest in studies and get distracted by gadgets, play, or bad company.

Today is Shukla Ekadashi. It is highly auspicious for worshipping Lord Vishnu. Offering yellow flowers or bananas to Vishnu/Jupiter helps improve financial luck and reduces obstacles.
