Hariyali means greenery, which can be seen everywhere around during the monsoons and thus the name. Goddess Parvati had fasted and prayed for many years, and finally, in her 108th birth, Lord Shiva accepted her as his wife. It is believed that Haryali Teej was the day when Shiva accepted Parvati as his wife.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"customs\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Customs\"><\/span><strong>Customs<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A day prior to Hariyali Teej, Sinjara is celebrated. Sindhara, which are gifts for a married woman, is also received from her mother. These gifts include new clothes, bangles, mehndi and all the other shringar essentials. She also receives ghevar and other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/in\/mithai\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/in\/mithai\">sweets<\/a> on this auspicious occasion. On the day of Sinjara, women apply mehndi to their hands and feet. It is considered auspicious to do so.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the day of Teej, women dress up in beautiful new sarees. The green colour is mostly preferred to be worn for the celebrations. In some areas, women wear leheriyas. Leheriya is traditional work or print that is done on sarees and dupattas and looks like waves. They wear bangles and do shringar, which is considered an important part of a married woman in the Hindu culture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many women also make idols of Parvati, Shiva and Ganesh using clay to worship them. Doing this is also considered auspicious. The ladies listen to the Vrat kathas (stories) and fast for the whole day to pray for their husband&#8217;s well-being. Since it is the Goddess Parvati who is worshipped, she is also called &#8216;Teej Mata&#8217;. All the ladies gather to set up Goddess Parvati&#8217;s idol and offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/in\/flowers-and-mithai\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/in\/flowers-and-mithai\">flowers, sweets<\/a>, and shringaar items to the idol. One of the ladies read the vrat katha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unmarried girls also keep fast and celebrate this festival in the desire to find a good husband.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Swings are also set up in the gardens, and all the women take turns on the swings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-is-puja-done\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_is_Puja_Done\"><\/span><strong>How is Puja Done?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/istock-913344080-cropped-1597996191.jpg\" alt=\"Family Puja\" class=\"wp-image-8349\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/istock-913344080-cropped-1597996191.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/istock-913344080-cropped-1597996191-300x188.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Women wake up early in the morning, two hours before sunrise. They get dressed in green coloured clothes after taking a bath for the puja. The area where the puja will take place is cleansed with Gangajal and then covered with red cloth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, Lord Ganesh is prayed to, and a Kalash is placed at the chowki. Placing a Kalash filled with water near the puja sthal is considered very auspicious in Hindu culture. This Kalash is covered with leaves and coconut. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The food on this day is specially cooked without onion and garlic.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"teej-festival-and-celebration-in-jaipur-rajasthan\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Teej_Festival_And_Celebration_in_Jaipur_Rajasthan\"><\/span><strong>Teej Festival And Celebration in Jaipur, Rajasthan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;uploadedSrc&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.bloomsflora.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/07\\\/imago0301920356s.jpg&quot;,&quot;figureClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-block-image size-full&quot;,&quot;figureStyles&quot;:null,&quot;imgClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-image-8354&quot;,&quot;imgStyles&quot;:null,&quot;targetWidth&quot;:630,&quot;targetHeight&quot;:420,&quot;scaleAttr&quot;:false,&quot;ariaLabel&quot;:&quot;Enlarge image: Teej Festival And Celebration in Jaipur&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Teej Festival And Celebration in Jaipur&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"420\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/imago0301920356s.jpg\" alt=\"Teej Festival And Celebration in Jaipur\" class=\"wp-image-8354\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/imago0301920356s.jpg 630w, https:\/\/www.bloomsflora.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/imago0301920356s-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge image: Teej Festival And Celebration in Jaipur\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"context.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"context.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Teej Festival In Jaipur Devotees take part in a traditional procession on the occasion of Teej festival, in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India, on Saturday, Aug 19, 2023.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The celebrations of Teej in Jaipur are a must-watch.
