DESCRIPTION:

Raksha Bandhan can also be called Siblings Day. It is a celebration of sibling love observed on the Purnima of Sawan in the Hindu calendar.

Raksha Bandhan is an ancient observance ripe with myth and historical legends. One recounts how the Rajput queens practiced the custom of sending rakhi threads to neighboring rulers as a token of fraternity. This legend is illustrated today by sisters tying a sacred thread, rakhi, on her brother's wrist as a symbol of her love and prayers for her brother's well-being and his lifelong vow to protect her.

PLEASE NOTE:
We use the Indian civil calendar, the official holiday calendar in India. The Hindu faith has many calendars, each specific to different regions and tribes, with dates and celebrations marked by differing positions of the sun, moon, and stars. Names of months and holidays and the corresponding dates in the Gregorian Calendar may vary widely from one calendar to the next. Determine the proper calendar before attending local events.
