About Raksha Bandhan
Raksha Bandhan, or Rakhi, falls on Shravana Purnima, the full Moon of the monsoon month of Shravana. Sisters tie a sacred protective thread (rakhi) on their brothers' wrists, pray for their wellbeing, and brothers in turn promise care and support. The traditional stories behind the day involve Vishnu, Lakshmi and Indra, and the thread is tied in the Rakhi Muhurat, after the Bhadra period has ended.
