New Delhi: With the arrival of September, it's time to kick off the festive season by donning our bright Garba outfits and dancing our hearts out in celebration of Goddess Durga. Garba, a Gujarati folk dance popular during Navaratri (also known as Durga Puja), represents the feminine divine and the circle of life.
Garba is derived from the Sanskrit word "Garbha," which means "womb." Garba is a community dance in which participants spin and whirl in a circle around a clay lantern known as Garbha deep (womb light) or an image of Maa Durga. The center represents life, the divine feminine strength, and the ever-changing universe in which only God (represented as feminine) remains constant.
The community dance brings Hindus from all over the world together to celebrate the auspicious Nine Nights, which represent the nine forms of Shakti. Because everyone wants to welcome the divinity with great pomp and grandeur, the Garba dress receives special attention.
Garba Dress Significance:
Bright colours are chosen to stand out in the crowd and gladden the divinity. The Garba dress is a three-piece costume consisting of mirrorwork and embroidery. It is a celebration of Indian art and culture.
Traditional choli (blouse), chaniya (skirt), and dupatta are worn by women. For men, the traditional kediyu (kurta with flares), pyjamas, and a turban are worn. Garba is all about glittering colours and loving vibes. Colors are known to have a significant impact on the human mind and psychology; therefore, choosing a colour that is appropriate for a person quadruples the love vibes of colour and festive around us. One way to choose a Garba dress could be based on your zodiac sign.
