And now for something completely different! My Missus goes to Gujarat in India four times a year for work, and the last time she was there was during Navratri. She was invited to a Garba dance festival and picked up this dress. I can't imagine she'd wear it again over here, so I thought I'd borrow it for myself

women playing 'garba', a popular folk dance of gujarat where they move around in a circle, clapping and with specific rhythm according to beat of the drum.

 

finishing 'sitra mata pooja' and related religious rituals, people gather around to play this 'garba'. for most of the people (even here in india), 'navratri festival' is nothing else but playing 'garba' (that too after the dark).

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.

 

Happy Navratri, Happy Garba!
