Teej is a vibrant festival celebrated with immense fervor and gaiety. There are three Teej festivals in a year: Hariyali Teej, Kajari Teej, and Hartalika Teej. Each version of Teej is associated with unique rituals and traditions. As the popularity of the Teej festival grows, more women are celebrating with utmost devotion, and the festival is attracting many tourists eager to be part of its joyous celebrations. Let’s delve into the three types of Teej:
Hariyali Teej
Hariyali Teej is celebrated in the Shukla Paksh of Shravana, corresponding to the month of August. Also known as Teejen, this festival is dedicated to the worship of the moon. Signifying greenery, women wear green-colored dresses and bangles to mark the auspicious occasion. They celebrate by singing and dancing to traditional Hariyali Teej songs. Enhance your festive spirit by donning a Krishna T-shirt or a Ganesh T-shirt as you partake in the celebrations.
Kajari Teej
Kajari Teej is celebrated on Krishna Paksh Tritiya, the third day of the month of Shravan. This festival is associated with the blackish shades of clouds during the monsoon season. It is a time to perform the sacred pooja of neem amidst various rituals and traditions. Women sing Kajari songs in praise of Lord Krishna, making the day vibrant and full of devotion. Embrace the spirit of the festival with a Lord Krishna T-shirt or an Anjaneya T-shirt.
Hartalika Teej
Hartalika Teej is celebrated with gusto on the third day of the first fortnight of the month of Bhadra. On this day, women observe a 'Nirjala Vrat' (a fast without food and water) and worship Goddess Parvati for the long and conjugal life of their husbands. The festival is marked by devotion and joyous celebrations. Add to the festive atmosphere with a Hanuman T-shirt or a Ganpati T-shirt.
Celebrate the essence of Teej by embracing its traditions and enhancing your festive attire with themed t-shirts. Whether it’s a Krsna T-shirt or a Hindu T-shirt, wearing these can make the occasion even more special. Enjoy the Teej festival with devotion, color, and joy!
