This tithi is considered suitable for austerities, self-reflection, and resolving internal conflicts. It supports activities aimed at spiritual discipline and emotional cleansing. A traditional observance in some regions is Kajari Teej, where women fast and pray for marital bliss and family well-being, often involving rituals for purification.
