The Karwa Chauth festival is just around the corner. Every year, it falls on the fourth day of the Hindu lunisolar month of Kartik.
On this day, married Hindu women fast from sunrise to moonrise and pray for their husbands’ longevity. They break their fast after seeing the moon and then looking through a sieve with a dia at their husbands. Because the moon plays an important role in the festival, here is when the moon will rise in various cities on Karwa Chauth.
