Hartalika Teej is one of the three significant teej festivals in the country, apart from Hariyali Teej and Kajri Teej. On this auspicious day, Lord Shiva and Parvati are worshipped for achieving marital harmony. It is celebrated with great fervour in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Women perform pujas, dress in new clothes and observe a fast for happiness in their marriage.
Hartalika is derived from the words ‘Harat’ and ‘Aalika’ which means ‘kidnapping of a woman friend’. According to mythology, Goddess Parvati’s friend had once taken her to a forest so that her father would not be able to marry her to Lord Vishnu against her wishes.
The Hartalika Teej’s morning prayer muhurat is from 6:15 am to 08:42 am. Tritiya Tithi starts from 6:04 pm on September 11 and ends at 4:07 pm on September 12. The festival is celebrated a month after Hariyali teej and a day before Ganesh Chaturthi.
