About Karva Chauth

Karva Chauth is a one-day fast kept by married women for the health and long life of their husbands. It falls on the fourth day after the full moon of Kartik (Ashvin in the southern reckoning), in October or November, about nine days before Diwali.

The day starts before dawn with sargi, a meal often given by the mother-in-law. Women then fast without food or water, wear red or bridal clothes, apply mehendi and gather in the evening to hear the Karva Chauth katha and pass the puja thalis around in a circle.

At moonrise the wife looks at the moon and then at her husband through a sieve, offers water to the moon, and breaks the fast with a sip of water from her husband's hand. Many husbands now fast too, and unmarried girls sometimes keep it for a good match.

Karva Chauth is kept mainly in Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh, and by Punjabi and North Indian families abroad.

How people celebrate Karva Chauth

  • Sargi before dawn
  • A day-long fast without water
  • Mehendi, red bangles and bridal clothes
  • The evening katha and passing the thali
  • Seeing the moon through a sieve
  • Breaking the fast from the husband's hand

How to wish well

  • Send your wish in the afternoon or early evening, before moonrise.
  • Romantic wishes from husband to wife are the heart of the day; a gift or a cooked dinner says even more.
  • Light jokes about waiting for the moon are welcome; never joke about the fast itself.
  • Not everyone keeps this fast, so keep wishes to colleagues and customers simple and general.
