According to astrologer Pandit Kalki Ram of Ayodhya, the Hartalika Teej fast can be kept by unmarried girls and women. On this day, married women keep a waterless fast and pray for their husband’s long life. On the occasion of Teej, married women worship Lord Shiva and Mother Parvati.

Things to Keep in Mind:
⦁ Women should not get angry even by mistake during the Hartalika Teej fast. If they do so, their fast will be considered incomplete.
⦁ After taking a vow to keep the fast of Hartalika Teej, one should not break the fast even by mistake. By doing this, fortunate women also have to see many types of inauspicious results.

⦁ Women who keep the fast should not sleep at night; they should stay awake the whole night and narrate the story of Lord Shiva.
⦁ Hartalika Teej fast is very difficult. This is a Nirjala fast. That is, women who keep the fast cannot even consume water on this day. If a woman drinks water, the fast is broken.
⦁ Along with this, one should avoid black colour on this day and should not wear black bangles and clothes.
⦁ On this day, the women of the house should not insult the elders even by mistake; rather, they should touch their feet and take a vow to fast.
