Important if you are coordinating with family in India:
Hariyali Teej falls on August 5, 2027 in Kolkata, but on August 4, 2027 in India.
Hindu observances are tied to the tithi at your local sunrise (or to a local moment such as sunset or midnight),
so the calendar date legitimately shifts by a day across time zones. Both are correct for their own location.
What Hariyali Teej means
Religious significance
Celebrates the reunion of Shiva and Parvati — the day Shiva accepted Parvati as his wife after her long tapasya. Married women fast for their husbands’ long life and unmarried girls for a good match, worshipping Parvati as Teej Mata.
Cultural significance
The festival of the monsoon’s green (hariyali): women in green sarees and mehndi gather at swings hung from trees, sing Teej songs, and receive shrinjhara gifts from their parental home. Especially beloved in Rajasthan, UP and Bihar — Jaipur’s Teej procession is famous.
Good to know
Swinging, mehndi and green bangles are the day’s signatures. The related Kajari Teej follows in Bhadrapada Krishna paksha.
