Rhythms of Nature
Festivals and seasons
Discover how many of our festivals are linked to the seasons.
In your book, Our Wondrous World (Chapter 9), you learn that many of our festivals are connected with the seasons.
Holi is celebrated in spring, when flowers bloom. Diwali is celebrated in autumn, after the crops are harvested.
Pongal and Makar Sankranti are celebrated in winter.
Baisakhi, Gudi Padwa, Vishu and Rongali Bihu are new year and harvest festivals. So the seasons do not just change the weather — they also give us reasons to celebrate together.
Holi comes in spring when flowers bloom, Diwali in autumn after the harvest, Pongal and Makar Sankranti in winter, and Baisakhi, Gudi Padwa, Vishu and Rongali Bihu are new year and harvest festivals.
