Gowri Habba 2021: Significance And Rituals
It is usually women who observe fasts (Swarna Gowri Vratha) on the Tritiya Tithi (third day), Shukla Paksha (bright phase of the Lunar cycle) in the month of Bhadrapada to seek the blessing of Goddess Gowri for a happy married life.
Devotees believe that it was on this day that Goddess Gowri came to her parent's home like any other married woman. On the next day, her son, Lord Ganesha came to take her back to Mount Kailash. The fasts are observed by unmarried women too and wish for a life partner of their choice. Also, there is a ritual where married women tie a sacred thread Gauri Daara with 16 knots to their right wrist, and the unmarried girls tie it without the knots. Also, women wear new sarees, and get all decked up with jewelry and accessories before performing puja with the items sent by their parents. Therefore, it is the same festival that is known as Hartalika Teej in the northern states like Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, Uttarakhand, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan.
