Happy Kumar Purnima!๐ŸŒนโ™ฅ๏ธ๐ŸŒ˜

Kumar Purnima is an odia festival. It is the full-moon day in the month of October-November. It is observed as the birthday of goddess Laxmi, the deity of wealth. The day is also known as Kumar Purnima when young girls in Odisha perform traditional rituals with the belief of getting ideal life partners.

This festival has lots of childhood memories of wearing new dresses in the evening and taking blessing from โ€˜Chanda Mamaโ€™ (Moon) followed by god and elders. Elders pay us post this ritual. Though I am away from family this year but celebrating this virtually with family. 
And also gambling has been a part of celebrations on this day for decades. This tradition of playing cards and the game of dice is still extant. It is also known as ritualistic gambling in my hometown Berhampur. Well, I donโ€™t know how to play cards but I always enjoyed wearing new dresses and earning a lot of pocket money by seeking blessings from elders. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿปโ™ฅ๏ธโ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿคญ๐Ÿคญ๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒน

This is the place where me and my husband spend most of the time while at home. Living room should be styled as per oneโ€™s own comfort. Someone rightly said โ€˜Change is the only constantโ€™ and I love changing the soft furnishings once a month.๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ’•It rejuvenates the inner peace along with the feel of home. 
Anyone else with me? Let me know in the comments.โ™ฅ๏ธ
Have a great week ahead everyone! ๐Ÿ‘โ™ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ’ปโ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿ’โ˜บ๏ธ
