Hariyali Teej is one of the auspicious festivals in Hindu religion, which is celebrated with great joy by all married women. It falls on Tritiya Tithi of Shukla Paksha during the Shravana month, typically occurring two days before Nag Panchami.This year, it will be celebrated on August 7.
The festival symbolises the reunion of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. On this day, women pray to Goddess Parvati for a happy married life. Even unmarried women fast in the hope of finding their ideal life partner.
Married women visit their parents’ homes, wear new clothes, particularly green sarees, apply mehendi or henna, and adorn themselves with bangles. They prepare swings, which they use while singing traditional Teej songs.
During this celebration, the parents of a married woman send Sindhara, a gift bucket, to their daughter and her in-laws. It includes homemade sweets, Ghewar, bangles, henna, and more. Because of this custom, Hariyali Teej is also called Sindhara Teej.
This festival is predominantly celebrated in northern India, particularly in states such as Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Rajasthan. Let’s take a look at different styles of Mehndi that you can apply on this Teej.
