Karwa Chauth 2024: Astrological Remedies For Karva Chauth To Ensure Marital Harmony 

1. Perform the Pooja in the Northeast Direction

- According to Vastu, the northeast direction is considered highly auspicious for conducting any spiritual or religious activities. Performing your Karwa Chauth pooja in this part of the house can enhance the flow of positive energies and bring peace and harmony to your relationship.

- Decorate this space with flowers, diyas (lamps), and idols of deities to further attract blessings for a happy married life.

2. Offer Red Flowers to the Goddess

- Red is a powerful colour in astrology and symbolises love, passion, and marital bliss. Offering red flowers, especially roses, to the goddess during your Karwa Chauth prayers can invoke positive energies that help strengthen the emotional and physical bond between you and your spouse.

- Ensure that both partners wear shades of red or pink during the day, as it helps promote love and affection.

3. Chant the Mantras for Marital Bliss

- Chanting mantras dedicated to Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva during Karwa Chauth can enhance the positive vibrations in your home. Recite the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra or Parvati Mantra to seek blessings for a long and prosperous married life.

- The vibrations from chanting these mantras are believed to resolve conflicts and misunderstandings, promoting peace and understanding in relationships.

4. Donate to the Needy

- Acts of charity during Karwa Chauth hold immense significance. Donating food, clothes, or money to the poor can help eliminate any negative influences or obstacles in your marital life. This selfless act attracts blessings and ensures that your relationship thrives.

- Donating red-coloured items like clothes or sweets is considered especially auspicious, as red symbolises love and happiness.

5. Offer Water to the Moon

- One of the most important rituals on Karwa Chauth is offering water to the moon after sighting it. This act is not just symbolic but also holds astrological importance. The moon governs emotions and the mind, and offering water while chanting prayers can help balance emotions and foster a calm and peaceful environment in the marriage.

- Make sure to perform this ritual in an open space, ideally facing the north or east, as these directions are considered auspicious for offering prayers.

6. Fasting Together

- Traditionally, Karwa Chauth is a day for women to fast for the well-being of their husbands, but some modern couples now choose to fast together. When both partners observe the fast, it becomes a mutual gesture of love, understanding, and commitment.

- Fasting together not only enhances mutual respect but also strengthens emotional and spiritual bonds.

7. Keep Fresh Flowers and Fragrances at Home

- Flowers and fragrances play a significant role in creating a positive atmosphere. On Karwa Chauth, place fresh flowers like roses, jasmine, or lilies in the northeast or southwest corner of your home to symbolise love, beauty, and purity.

- Additionally, use natural fragrances like sandalwood, jasmine, or rose incense to purify the environment and create a soothing atmosphere that promotes marital bliss.

8. Gift Your Partner Something Meaningful

- Karwa Chauth is an occasion to express love and gratitude to your spouse. Gifting something meaningful, such as a piece of jewellery, a handwritten note, or even a simple gesture of affection, can go a long way in nurturing your relationship.

- According to astrology, gifting items related to Venus, such as perfumes or diamonds, enhances love and romance in a marriage.

9. Light a Ghee Diya in the South-East Corner

- The southeast corner of your home is ruled by Agni (the fire element), which is crucial for maintaining energy and warmth in a relationship. On Karwa Chauth, lighting a ghee diya in this corner ensures that the relationship remains strong, full of passion, and devoid of conflicts.

- It also invites prosperity and good fortune, helping both partners grow together in happiness and success.

10. Avoid Negative Thoughts and Arguments

- Karwa Chauth is a day dedicated to love and devotion. It’s important to maintain a positive mindset throughout the day and avoid arguments, misunderstandings, or negative thoughts.

- Focus on the qualities you admire in your spouse, express gratitude, and engage in activities that promote bonding.
