Deck up the pooja room
The pooja room is the most essential corner of the house. So, it must be properly decked up especially, during the light festival of Diwali. Get some antique brass finish lamps and place them on the pedestal. Adorn the front part with a chain of flowers and also make sure the floor is beautifully decorated with various flower motifs. The flowers must be fresh and diyas can be placed accordingly as per the designs to give it a more festive look.
Decorate your entrance
Diwali is believed to bring the light of happiness into your home. So, never forget to give a touch to your front door. Hang down some pretty torans of various sizes and colours as this makes your home feel welcoming throughout the festive season. It also acts as a welcome symbol for goddess Lakshmi to usher colour and happiness into your life. Apart from torans, some chains of lights or flowers can also be used.
Light up your house from outside
Since Diwali is the festival of lights, so apart from making interior decorations, the house must be adorned with lights from outside to make the festive look more prominent. You can use bulbs or small chains of tiny lights of either the same or different colours as per your choice. However, makes sure that the strings of lights must be hung from the top to the bottom of the house.
Use beautiful rangoli designs
Making beautiful rangolis is an important Diwali customary that is believed to usher the blessings of goddess Lakshmi into your home. It is an old-age practise to draw colourful patterns in the pooja room as well as at the entrance to please the guests. While some use traditional motifs, others find it auspicious to draw Swastika and Om symbols on the floor.
Follow the festive muhurat
The festival of Diwali is done to welcome goddess Lakshmi’s presence into our homes and lives. Although the festive mood, use of firecrackers and beautiful decorations are necessary, the actual pooja should be done at the right muhurat (moment). The right muhurat or the right moment indicates the holy period through which we welcome the presence of the goddess in our hearts.
Make Marigold flower an important element of decoration
Just like other festivals, Diwali too can be made vibrant and beautiful by using Marigold flowers. These traditional flowers are also called the ‘herb of the sun’ whose fragrance helps to improve the home atmosphere and ward of stress. The vibrant yellow and orange colours symbolize prosperity and new beginnings in life. Garlands of marigold can be used both in the entryway or inside the pooja room to add a beautiful traditional touch with a festive aura.
Light up the rooms for prosperity
Diwali is all about lighting up your house to brighten up your soul. It is a must to use the best quality lights and the most traditional diyas for your rooms as per the Vastu Shastra. Nowadays, the markets offer a wide variety of lights, so one can choose accordingly as per their house interior and wall colour.
