What this day is
On the fourth night of the waning moon after Sharad Purnima, married women fast from before sunrise until moonrise for the long life of their spouse.
How families observe it at home
The fast opens before dawn with sargi (often sent by the mother-in-law), holds without food or water through the day, and breaks after sighting the moon through a sieve, then the spouse's face. US moonrise times vary widely by city; check yours locally. Many modern couples keep the fast for each other.
