KARWA CHAUTH 2015 is on 30th OCTOBER, FRIDAY
After the puja, the women seek the blessings of their-mothers-in-law by touching their feet and offering almonds, saree and gift to them as a mark of respect.
Breaking the Fast: After sunset, with the sighting of the moon, the women go up to the terrace with their puja thalis, light deepak and through a sieve look at the moon while simultaneously offering arag from the glass. They offer water and sweet mathri 7 times to the moon after saying a short prayer for the husband on the occasion of Karwa Chauth
"Sir Dhadi, Paer Kadi, Ark Dendi, Sarv Suhagan, Chaubare Khadi.. "
This song is sung 5 times. A parikrama of moon is done each time after offering arag. For parikrama, one turns a full circle standing at one place. The fast is broken by first taking a piece of the mathri and a sip of water, which was offered to the moon.
After the puja, one touches the feet of the husband and elders in the family.
