Vasant Panchami arrives January 23, heralding spring and Saraswati’s blessings for wisdom and creativity. Indians relish it as a golden window for new beginnings—be it studies, businesses, or joyous events like marriages and naming ceremonies. But 2024 defies tradition: zero shubh muhurat for weddings.
