Hariyali Teej 2025: Is It On July 26 or July 27? Know The Correct Date And Muhurat
Hariyali Teej, one of the most auspicious festivals for married Hindu women, is celebrated with great devotion and enthusiasm, especially in northern India. Dedicated to the union of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, Hariyali Teej symbolises marital bliss, love, and prosperity. Women observe a day-long fast and pray for the long life and well-being of their husbands or for an ideal life partner.
However, this year, there is confusion over the exact date of the festival, whether it falls on July 26 or 27. Astrologer Dr Mrityunjay Tiwari of Maharishi Panini Sanskrit and Vedic University, Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, has provided clarification on the correct date and auspicious timings for Hariyali Teej in 2025.
According to this, since Tritiya Tithi begins at sunrise on Sunday, July 27 (from 05:40 AM), Hariyali Teej will be celebrated on Sunday, July 27, 2025. This is the correct and scripturally accepted date.

Hariyali Teej is traditionally observed with evening puja, during Pradosh Kaal, which begins around sunset. On July 27, the sun will set at 07:15 PM and the most auspicious time for worship is between 07:15 PM and 08:33 PM. Other shubh muhurats on this day include:
Abhijit Muhurat: 12:00 PM to 12:55 PM
Brahma Muhurat: 04:17 AM to 04:58 AM
Nishita Muhurat: 12:07 AM to 12:49 AM

Puja Rituals and Mantras
On Hariyali Teej, women worship Teej Mata, Lord Shiva, and Goddess Parvati, praying for marital bliss and prosperity. Those observing the fast often chant the following mantras:
Ya Devi Sarvabhuteshu Maa Gauri Rupena Sansthita.
Namastesyaye Namastesyaye Namastesyaye Namo Namah.
Devi Devi Ume Gauri Trahi Maam Karuna Nidhe,
Mamaparadha Kshantavya Bhukti Mukti Prada Bhava.
Parana Time
Women observing the fast, whether married or unmarried, can break it on Monday, July 28, after sunrise at 05:40 AM.
Hariyali Teej is considered highly auspicious for married women. It is believed to bless them with marital bliss. Unmarried girls also observe this fast to get a life partner of their choice. Women seeking a suitable match are said to receive divine blessings for success in their search.

UP: Devotees seek blessings of lord Banke Bihari on Hariyali Teej
Mathura (UP), Jul 27 (PTI) People from different walks of life flocked to the temples in Mathura and Vrindavan and sought the blessings of lord Banke Bihari on the occasion of Hariyali Teej on Sunday. 'A large number of devotees are visiting the Shri Banke Bihari Temple (in Vrindavan) today. Banke Bihari jee Maharaj, in a green attire, gave darshan to devotees on a 'Hindola' (swing) made of gold and silver along with Radha Rani," temple Sewayat Gyanendra Kishor Goswami said. Elaborating on the significance of the day, he said that apart from a religious point of view, this ritual has a connection with India's independence as the tradition started on August 15, 1947, the day of India's independence. 'Earlier, Hindola darshans were available only in the evening, but after a Supreme Court order in 2016, Hindola darshan is now available both in the morning and evening darshans. Ghewar and Pheni are two special additions made to Thakur ji's prashad today," Goswami said. 'The swing was crafted by two goldsmiths of Varanasi in Vrindavan with 1 lakh tola of silver and 10,000 tola of gold, some 79 years ago," temple Sewayat and scholar Prahlad Vallabh Goswami said. Hariyali Teej is also celebrated in 'Sapt Devalaya' (seven ancient temples) of Vrindavan. In Radharaman temple (in Vrindavan), the day marks the beginning of the 485-year-old festival, which culminates on Rakshabandhan. 'Radharaman is wearing green clothes with a 'pagrhi' while giving darshans in a golden swing kept at the temple. The deity will give darshans in the golden swing for the next two days, followed by darshans in silver swing for the subsequent three days and in other types of swings thereafter," temple Sewayat Dinesh Chandra Goswami said. A special prasad called 'Sinhare', which includes Ghewar and Pheni, is offered to the deity on the occasion. However, a sweet puri called 'pua' is offered during the Sawan month, he said. In the Dwarkadheesh temple in Mathura city, two silver and one gold swings are put in the temple's courtyard, from the beginning of the Sawan, and they will remain there till Nandotsav, Rakesh Tiwari, media in-charge of Dwarkadheesh temple, said. The swings are decorated with fruits and flowers, and the temple is also decorated with different colours of cloth, each of which is associated with Lord Krishna's different Leelas, Rakesh Tiwari said. Mathura District Magistrate Chandra Prakash Singh, in an appeal to devotees, asked them to celebrate this festival without plastic and maintain cleanliness. 'Adequate arrangements are in place to ensure smooth darshan of Shri Bankey Bihari ji without compromising the safety of the devotees. Sector magistrates are instructed to maintain continuity in movement of devotees," Singh said. Mathura Senior Superintendent of Police Shlok Kumar said, 'The area is divided into four zones and 22 sectors and is supervised by magistrates and police officers. A traffic plan is in place to prevent traffic jams. Holding areas and parking places are identified to regulate the crowd."
