7 best ways to celebrate Navratri

Navratri has arrived and it is not unknown to us how excited people become with just the name of Navratri. This year the fear of covid persist in the hearts of people and also Navratri cannot be celebrated the way it was celebrated before covid knocked on the door. But we care for you and keeping in mind the auspiciousness of the occasion we have brought seven different ways by which you can celebrate your Navratri in the same way with the same excitement and joy. Let’s have a look at them. 

Dress up

Why sit ideally and bluntly? It is Navratri, dress up with your favourite dress or say lehenga choli and flaunt yourself. Ensure everyone in the house dress up each nine-day. Click selfies and do at home a photoshoot. Meet everyone virtually after dressing up and you will feel the aura of the occasion.

Host Gathering

Why feel sad if you cannot visit your near and dear ones. Everything can be done online. Arrange zoom meet or google meet and celebrate together. Laugh and talk and even sit on the puja together but virtually. It is the best way to stay connected and share moments that later in become memories worth remembering. 

Do the Garba

Garba or dandiya is something which we all crave and wait eagerly for an entire year to attend Garba nights. Why miss them this year when you can do the Garba with your family at home! Dress up with the ghagra choli and celebrate by doing the Garba. You can call over your neighbours as well and together celebrate. You even video call your relatives and then together celebrate. 

Feed Cows and The Poor

The ritual of feeding kanyas in Durga puja is a tradition. Maybe finding kanyas this year becomes difficult due to covid but you can continue the tradition differently. Feed the stray cows and poor people. It will add up more auspiciousness to the ritual. Feeding a hungry stomach will make your puja go blessed. And according to Hindu belief vows themselves are a form of God, so it is even appropriate. 

Send chocolates and food packages

The traditional food is something we get to eat during any occasion and Navratri are our best occasion when we share love and blessing by exchanging food. If you cannot invite your dear ones. You can send them customized food and chocolate packages. 

Make Mini Pandal at Home

This year making of huge and beautiful pandal has been restricted and you may miss out on the joy of visiting pandal. But there’s another way out. You can make mini pandals at home. There are many ideas you can from the internet and platforms like youtube from where you can see and make your own mini pandal. 

Arrange Some Games

There are times when you feel a lack of excitement, but having games can put a spark to the occasion. You can arrange both offline and online games to celebrate and enjoy together. This will make the family come together in a time of festivals.
