Hariyali Teej 2025: Fasting, prayers and mehendi
At the heart of the celebration is a fast, kept by married women to pray for their husband's long life and health. Dressed in green sarees and adorned with bangles and
mehendi
, they gather in homes and temples to offer prayers.
Unmarried women also take part, praying to Shiva and Parvati for a good life partner in the future. The rituals are steeped in symbolism, but they also carry a very personal emotional weight for many.
As one message shared widely this year reads, "Let your fast be sacred and your prayers be answered this Teej."

For some, it's a first celebration in a new family or as a newlywed. Teej becomes more than a ritual, it's a rite of passage.
One mother wrote to her daughter, "To my daughter, enjoy your first Hariyali Teej with all the colours of love and devotion."
The day also becomes an occasion for sisters, friends, and mothers to come together, sing traditional songs, share sweets, and sit on decorated swings tied to trees. In cities like Jaipur, grand processions of

through royal roads add further charm.
Hariyali Teej 2025: Wishes that speak from the heart
With every festival now shared online as much as it is in person, Teej greetings have taken new life. From WhatsApp to
Instagram
, people are exchanging wishes that blend old sentiment with modern formats.
Messages like "May the greenery and rain bring prosperity and happiness to your life. Happy Hariyali Teej!" reflect the spirit of the season.
Some are more spiritual, like "Praying for love that lasts beyond lifetimes, just like Shiv-Parvati. Happy Hariyali Teej!"
Others take a playful turn: "Girls just wanna swing on Teej! Let's enjoy every moment."
Celebration beyond marriage
While Teej is often associated with married women, many now see it as a wider celebration of womanhood, strength, and shared tradition.
"Teej isn't just for married women — it's a celebration of love in all forms."
That quote, passed around in several greetings this year, shows how the meaning of the festival is evolving while holding onto its roots.
Hariyali Teej 2025: Rituals with personal meaning
The rituals are simple but hold profound meaning. Fasting from dawn to dusk. Offering prayers. Singing bhajans. Tying swings on trees. Each act connects women not only with the divine but with each other and their shared heritage.
One quote captures this connection well: "Teej is not just a fast — it's a celebration of feminine strength and divine love."
Others turn to nature to express their devotion: "Let every swing remind you of joy, and every drop of rain remind you of grace."
Love, prayer and the power of waiting
For couples, the day holds a quiet significance. It becomes a time to reflect on relationships, on commitment, and on the patience that often defines long-lasting love.
'On this Hariyali Teej, may our bond be as deep as Parvati's devotion and as strong as Shiva's love.'
Another heartfelt message from a wife reads:
"With every fast, my heart prays only for your happiness and our togetherness. Happy Teej, my love."
As with most festivals in India, Hariyali Teej lives through people, not just texts. The rituals may be age-old, but each year brings new stories, new moments and new memories.
This year, as women fasted, sang, and prayed, they also took time to reflect, to connect with loved ones, and to pass on what they know. A message shared among many families summed it up best, "Let's celebrate the sacred bond of love, devotion, and eternal union. Happy Hariyali Teej!"
