Enjoy the Swing of Monsoon with Teej and Rakhi

This article on teej and rakhi is originally published by Sauve Women.
The Hindu months of Saawan and Bhadrapada correspond to the Gregorian months of July, August and September. It is in these months that the two important festivals - Teej and Rakhi are celebrated with gusto in various parts of India.
Teej
With the onset of monsoon, the smell of petrichor emanates from the earth and the downpour of rain, lifts the heart with joy. There's greenery everywhere and nature shines in all its glory.
This is also a period that is marked by the fasting of women who worship Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva to grant them the boon of marital bliss. 
Teej is actually celebrated in three forms: Hariyali Teej, Kajari Teej, Haritalika Teej and is celebrated with enthusiasm by both married and unmarried women.
