Kajari Teej 2025: Date, Tithi, Significance, and Rituals

Kajari Teej 2025 will be observed on Tuesday, August 12, 2025. This sacred Hindu festival, primarily celebrated by women in North India, especially in states like Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Madhya Pradesh, holds deep spiritual and emotional significance. Kajari Teej, also known as Badi Teej, is observed during the Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada month, and is deeply associated with the devotion and love of Goddess Parvati for Lord Shiva.

On this auspicious day, married women fast and pray for the long life, happiness, and prosperity of their husbands, while unmarried girls perform rituals seeking a virtuous life partner like Lord Shiva. The fast observed on Kajari Teej is considered highly sacred and is kept without consuming food or water, showcasing immense devotion and spiritual discipline.

Homes are beautifully decorated, traditional songs are sung, and women dress in bright ethnic wear, applying mehendi and adorning themselves with bangles and jewelry. The Kajari Teej Vrat Katha (the story of the fast) is recited with devotion, and puja is performed with neem leaves, clay idols, and sacred offerings.

The festival also holds a strong cultural essence — swings (jhoolas) are hung from trees, folk songs fill the air, and communities come together in celebration. It is not just a ritual but a celebration of feminine energy, marital bliss, and divine love.
