Significance of Kajri Teej 

According to the scriptures, Kajri Teej is one of the three Teej ceremonies celebrated throughout the year. Like Akha and Hariyali Teej, special preparations are also made for this Teej. Women who observe this fast get the blessings of Goddess Parvati. It is believed that on the day of Kajri Teej, Maa Parvati had received the results through deep meditation (Tapasya) to win over Shiva. For this particular reason, both Shankar ji and Parvati Mata are worshiped on this day.

If unmarried girls observe this fast, they get their desired groom. On this day, women have to observe a complete fast i.e. even without a sip of water. At the time of sunset, women have to take a bath, wear clean clothes and make a clay idol of Shiva-Parvati to worship the pair.

Kajri Teej Fast : Mythology and Legends

There are many famous stories related to Kajri Teej. Today, we are going to tell you about one of these. According to mythological beliefs, on this day, Parvati Mata received Shiva as her husband after observing deep austerity (Tapasya). It was very difficult for Goddess Parvati to get married to Mahadev, the grand patron of the deities. 

After observing deep meditation for several years, Parvati Mata could win over Mahadev as her husband. According to the Puranas, after going through 108 life circles, Goddess Parvati was able to marry Lord Shiva. Therefore, if a woman fasts and worships Goddess Parvati and Shiva on this day, she is blessed to live as “Suhagin”/ married  forever.
