Karwa Chauth 2025 Fast: Women observing the Karwa Chauth fast for the first time need to be mindful of several things. Any mistakes during the fast are considered inauspicious, so women should observe the fast correctly.

The Karva Chauth fast is considered very special for women. On this day, women observe a waterless fast for the long life of their husbands. This year, Karva Chauth will be celebrated on October 10th. Many women are observing the Karva Chauth fast for the first time. So, let us tell you what important things to keep in mind if you are observing it for the first time, so that you don't face any problems during the fast.
Start the fast with Sargi.
Karva Chauth begins with the eating of the Sargi before sunrise. The mother-in-law gives the Sargi to her daughter-in-law, which contains fruits, sweets, dried fruits, water, and cosmetics. Women observing the fast for the first time often forget to eat the Sargi. This is considered a grave mistake, as a fast without the Sargi is considered incomplete. Therefore, women observing the fast for the first time must take special care to wake up early, bathe, and eat the Sargi before beginning their fast.
wearing red or pink clothes
Wearing black or white clothes on Karva Chauth is considered inauspicious. Try to wear red, pink, yellow, or maroon on this day. These colors symbolize good luck and love. For newly married women, wearing a red dress and applying 16 adornments is considered very auspicious on this day.
Take care of Nirjala fast.
The Karva Chauth fast is observed without water, meaning you don't even drink water on this day. If you feel thirsty, keep yourself busy with some work or wash your hands and face with cold water. Drinking water even accidentally breaks the fast, so observe the fast with devotion and restraint throughout the day.
Break the fast only after seeing the moon.
If you're observing the Karva Chauth fast for the first time, remember to break your fast only after the moon has risen in the evening. After offering prayers to the moon, look first at the moon through a sieve and then at your husband's face. Afterward, break your fast by drinking water from your husband's hand and then eating. People often break their fast in a hurry without waiting for the moon to appear, but this is considered inappropriate.
Pay attention to even the smallest things.
If you're observing the Karva Chauth fast for the first time, it's important to keep a few small things in mind. Avoid using sharp objects like needles, scissors, or knives on the day of the Karva Chauth fast. Also, avoid speaking ill of anyone, and don't forget to apply henna to your hands on the day of the fast.
