Significance of Karwa Chauth

On Karwa Chauth, women observe a nirjala vrat, abstaining from food and water. They purchase new karwas (earthen pots) and beautifully decorate them. Before sunrise, women wake up, have a light snack called saragi, and begin their fast. Throughout the day, they abstain from food and water, and in the evening, they dress up like brides and perform puja. After offering prayers to the Moon God, they break their fast.

According to ancient scriptures, the Moon God symbolizes love and marital bliss. Therefore, women worship the Moon God, seeking a long and happy married life. Karwa Chauth is an opportunity for women to rejuvenate their marital bond and seek divine blessings for their husbands' well-being.

In conclusion, Karwa Chauth is a significant festival that celebrates the sacred bond of marriage. On October 20, 2024, married women will come together to observe this auspicious day, seeking happiness, longevity, and eternal love.
