Raksha Bandhan is just around the corner. This day celebrates the beautiful bond between brother and sister. On this day, sisters express their love and affection by tying a rakhi, a sacred thread, on their brother’s wrist. In return, brothers give gifts to their sisters and promise to protect them throughout their lives. It is celebrated every year in the month of Shravana during the full moon day or the day of Purnima and this year it will be celebrated on August 19. So, why not make the celebration even more special by choosing a rakhi that aligns with your brother’s zodiac sign? We have listed the suitable rakhi colours for your brother:
