Ways to bring love, prosperity in married life on Karva Chauth

* Red is the colour of love. Make sure to wear red in any form on this day. It could be a red lipstick, red bangles or red sari. A little of red is must on this day.

* The mustard oil diya is a symbol of the everlasting love. Make sure that the diya doesn’t extinguish and should light for the whole day, until you open the fast. In some cases, if you light your diya only during the ‘katha’, then don’t let it extinguish until moon-sighting.

* Open your fast with a sweet. Jaggery works the best. After having the jaggery, ask your husband to make you drink only a few drops of water.

* While praying to the moon, try to stand in a south-west corner. This corner boosts love and understanding between the couples. Also, this direction is the best when choosing a room for the couple.
