Holi—the festival of colours, joy, and togetherness! Whether you’ve grown up celebrating Holi in India or are experiencing it for the first time in the UK, one thing is for sure—this festival is all about spreading happiness and positivity.
At its heart, Holi is a celebration of good over evil, marking the victory of devotion and love. But what truly makes Holi special is the riot of colours that fill the air! In India, colours are deeply symbolic and have cultural, religious, and emotional meanings. Let’s explore the significance of these vibrant hues in Indian traditions.
Each colour of Holi carries a beautiful meaning, reflecting different emotions and aspects of Indian life:
Red: The colour of love, power, and fertility! It symbolizes strength and deep bonds. In Indian traditions, red is also associated with marriage, prosperity, and festivals, making it a colour of auspiciousness.
Yellow: A colour of purity, energy, and happiness! Yellow is linked to turmeric, which is widely used in Indian rituals, cooking, and Ayurvedic healing. It is also associated with Lord Vishnu and wisdom.
Blue: Representing calmness, truth, and divinity, blue is the colour of Lord Krishna, one of the most beloved deities in Indian culture. His playful Holi celebrations in Vrindavan are legendary!
Green: The colour of nature, harvest, and new beginnings! Green symbolizes prosperity and growth. It is also associated with spring, which Holi welcomes with open arms.
Pink & Purple: These shades stand for joy, magic, and celebration, making them perfect for the spirit of Holi in India, where fun, dance, and festivity take centre stage!
