Today is Vishu, new year festival of Kerala which is celebrated generally on 14th or 15th April. I started celebrating Vishu after marriage, I love this festival and traditional ritual of setting Vishu Kani. It is a beautiful spread of many auspicious items, harvest produce around Lord Krishna statue/ picture. All family members watch the glimpse of Vishu Kani as soon as they wake up early morning on the Vishu Day. Family members straight walk towards Vishu Kani with closed eyes and open to witness the auspicious Vishu Kani sight. It is believed that this first divine glimpse will bring good fortune in the new year. Viewing Vishu Kani is a very beautiful and happy experience. Vishu is not complete without Vishu Sadya, a delicious vegetarian feast, I will share it in another post. These images of Vishu Kani are from last year Vishu celebration.
On this very auspicious occasion of Vishu, I wish all my readers and visitors a very healthy, peaceful and prosperous new year.
**** Vishu Kani ****
