Dr. Taara Malhotra talks about Karwa Chauth Puja, Fasting & Spiritual Significance
Dr. Taara Malhotra, India’s leading numerologist, spiritual healing and energy expert, has been guiding people across the globe to transform their lives through the power of numbers, intuition and ancient spiritual practices. With her deep knowledge of occult sciences, karmic cleansing and energy alignment, she bridges the gap between tradition and modern spirituality. On this Karwa Chauth, she sheds light on the deeper significance of fasting, rituals, and cosmic energies that make this day a sacred celebration of love, devotion and transformation.
“Karwa Chauth is more than an age-old ritual; it is a potent confluence of devotion, intention, and subtle energy work. Observed predominantly by married Hindu women, this moonlit fast honours marital fidelity and invokes the blessings of longevity, prosperit, and emotional union. From a spiritual-healing and numerological lens, Karwa Chauth offers a unique opportunity to align personal intention with cosmic rhythms amplifying relationship energy and inner transformation,” says Dr. Taara Malhotra
At its core, Karwa Chauth is an act of conscious devotion. The day begins before sunrise with the sargi… a nourishing pre-dawn meal shared from elder women, symbolising generational blessings and continuity. Through the daylight hours, women maintain a strict fast, abstaining from food and water, while engaging in self-discipline and mindful practices. This physical restraint becomes a vehicle for sharpening focus and cultivating inner strength.
The evening puja is the ritual heart. Women gather, often in groups, to recite traditional prayers, sing bhajans, and perform the karwa (earthen pot) ritual. Dr Taara shares –
- The pot, filled with water and decorated, symbolises abundance and the vessel of life… an external mirror of the inner emotional container that sustains relationships.
- Viewing the moon through a sieve and then looking at the husband’s face through the same sieve is a beautiful symbolic exchange: the moon’s cool, reflective energy passing through the sieve is offered to the beloved, weaving together celestial blessing and human bond.
- From a numerological perspective, the date and tithi (lunar day) of Karwa Chauth carry amplified vibrations. As a numerologist, I emphasize how lunar phases influence emotional receptivity and relationship dynamics. The Chaturthi tithi (fourth lunar day) resonates with stability, introspection, and steady growth… qualities essential to marriage.
- When Karwa Chauth aligns with auspicious planetary transits, the collective intention set by devotees can be energetically magnified, making prayers and healing intentions more receptive to manifestation.
- Intention-setting during the puja, spoken or silent, programs the heart-mind with clarity: longevity, trust, mutual respect and shared spiritual growth.
Spiritually, fasting acts as a purification practice. Depriving the body transiently of nourishment quiets the mind and heightens subtle perception. This is an ideal time for guided meditation, energy-clearing visualisations, and silently offering gratitude for the partner’s presence and shared life.
Practical guidance: honour the body’s limits; those who are pregnant, menstruating, ill, or elderly should adapt observances compassionately. Hydrate well after the moon sighting and approach the fast as a heartfelt offering, not an obligation.
Karwa Chauth is ultimately an invitation: to make love conscious, to turn devotion into deliberate energy, and to use ritual as a bridge between earthly commitments and cosmic support. Observed with mindful intent and subtle energy awareness, this ancient fast becomes a living practice of relationship alchemy nurturing not just a marriage, but the radiant inner union of two souls.
