Tie Rakhi Based on Your Brother’s Zodiac Sign

Raksha Bandhan is a sacred festival that celebrates the beautiful bond between siblings. On this day, a sister ties Rakhi on her brother’s wrist and prays for his long life. In return, the brother promises to protect his sister always. By tying a Rakhi that aligns with your brother’s zodiac sign, you can enhance his fortune, happiness, and success. Here’s how you can choose the right Rakhi for him according to his sign.
