Why Do We Tie A Red String On Our Wrist Before  Ceremony?

Why Do We Tie A Red String On Our Wrist Before Ceremony?

I have sat in many puja’s since I was a little girl. Pujas during the wedding,  new home, new baby, Ganesh Puja’s and many more.  Each marking a milestone in my life.  I noticed every time we start the ceremony that the Brahmin would always tie a red string around out writs before we sat in pooja.  Has this happened you? I don’t know what it is but when that red string was tied on my wrist I always felt a connection to jai jais and felt special and empowered.
