Every year, the day after Devuthani Ekadashi — on the Dwadashi Tithi of Shukla Paksha in the month of Kartika — the sacred ritual of Tulsi Vivah is observed. This auspicious occasion marks the ceremonial marriage of Goddess Tulsi and Lord Shaligram, a manifestation of Lord Vishnu. Devotees consider the day highly favorable for worshipping both Lord Vishnu and Goddess Tulsi, as it symbolizes the divine union of purity and devotion.
In 2025, Tulsi Vivah will be celebrated on November 2. It is believed that performing rituals on this day brings good fortune, marital harmony, and prosperity. Unmarried individuals or those experiencing delays in marriage are encouraged to observe special puja rituals and remedies to seek the blessings of Lord Shaligram and Goddess Tulsi for an early and fulfilling marriage.
On the auspicious occasion of Tulsi Vivah, devotees should offer shringar (adornment) items such as chunni or saree to Maa Tulsi. These offerings are believed to be blessed by Lord Vishnu and Goddess Tulsi, bringing good fortune and marital harmony.
2. Perform Gathbandhan
During the Tulsi Vivah ceremony, tie a sacred red thread around the Tulsi plant and the Shaligram, symbolizing their divine union. After the ritual, offer fruits, sweets, and clothes to an unmarried girl, especially one who wishes to get married soon. This act is said to invite blessings for an early and happy marriage.
3. Observe a Fast
Unmarried women seeking an ideal life partner are encouraged to observe a fast on Tulsi Vivah. Following the traditional puja rituals and offering haldi (turmeric) water and milk infused with turmeric to Maa Tulsi is considered highly auspicious. This fast is believed to increase the likelihood of finding a suitable partner.
4. Take a Turmeric Bath
On the sacred day of Tulsi Vivah, devotees wishing to get married to their desired partner should bathe in water mixed with a pinch of turmeric. This simple ritual is believed to strengthen Jupiter’s position in one’s horoscope, resolve marital delays, and enhance prospects of a blissful marriage.
5. Offer Clothes to Lord Vishnu and Goddess Tulsi
Dress the idols of Lord Shaligram and Goddess Tulsi in new clothes as part of the divine wedding ceremony. Adorn Lord Shaligram as the groom, and offer mehendi, bangles, sindoor, chunni, and payal to the Goddess.
