Gangaur is all about honoring the goddess Gauri, and celebrating love and marriage. A manifestation of Parvati (Lord Shiva's wife), she represents purity and austerity. Married women worship Gauri for the good health and longevity of their husbands. Unmarried women worship her to be blessed with a good husband. "Gana" is another word for Lord Shiva, and Gangaur signifies Lord Shiva and Parvati together.
