Captivating innumerable visitors to India every year, Holi is remarked to possess ‘no bars and no boundaries’ and is also commemorated within the Indian communities all around the world.

Essence Of Holi Celebrations


The celebrations of Holi kicks off with the Holika Dahan, a day prior to the colorful celebrations. A huge bonfire is lighted a night before, where people all gather, sing and celebrate the beginning of the Holi festival. The pyre of fire reveals the metaphoric burning of the demoness ‘Holika’, a malevolent mythological character. The victory of good over the desolation of evil is contemplated in this very ritual. People believe that the heat of the fire bids the winter months a farewell and hails the heat of the summers to come. Also known as ‘Chhoti Holi’, Holika Dahan bonfires are prepared from almost 40 days prior to the festival, with local inhabitants accumulating the sticks, dry leaves, twigs and woods left from the winter.

The ‘Colour Play’ Festival is what most of the people relate with the festival of Holi and is celebrated the following morning from the Holika Dahan. The parks, streets and temples are lined with a long queue of people and a fiesta of colours ensues as the widespread procession of music brims the air making the aura highly exuberant. People buy holi powder & colours, chase and amble around after one another with their fists full of coloured powders and loaded Pichkaris. Everyone gets involved in the festivities and the celebrations with full enthusiasm; right from adult men and women, to the children. Then, in the evening everyone dresses up in their finest clothes. Food and drinks are shared, and the special dishes that women carefully prepared earlier are enjoyed.

Holi is celebrated so widely in India that no matter where you are in the month of March, you would never be far from its celebrations. 

So, we at AstroSage wish you very Happy Holi, filled with sweet moments and colourful memories which you can cherish forever.
