The meaning of Kajari Teej
Celebrated three days after Raksha Bandhan, Kajari Teej is also known as Kajjali Teej and is celebrated by women for the long life of their husbands and eternal marital bliss. On this day, married women observe a day-long fast without water, which they break only after offering Arghya to the Moon in the evening, similar to Karva Chauth.
Performing the rituals with devotion on Kajari Teej is believed to please Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Married women as well as unmarried girls worship the divine couple in the hope of being blessed with a good life partner and a long and prosperous married life.
Three important festivals of Teej
There are three main Teej festivals celebrated throughout the year: Hariyali Teej, Hartalika Teej and Kajari Teej. These festivals hold great importance for married women, who celebrate them for the happiness and longevity of their married life.
It is said that on Kajari Teej, if unmarried girls worship Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati with complete devotion, they will be blessed with a good husband and eternal marital bliss. The day is also associated with the legend of Goddess Parvati, who performed intense penance to win the love of Lord Shiva, who eventually accepted her as his wife.
It is believed that celebrating Kajari Teej with proper rituals and devotion removes all obstacles in life, bringing joy and prosperity.
