The spirited festival is celebrated with tremendous enthusiasm by people, who get along with their family and friends on this festive occasion. It is a very popular harvest festival, celebrated in the North of India. Many people believe the festival commemorates the passing of the winter solstice and marks the end of winter.
Lohri is a traditional welcome of longer days and the sun’s journey to the northern hemisphere by Sikhs and Hindus in the Punjab region.
The main winter crop of Punjab – wheat, which is sown in October is seen at its prime in January across the fields of Punjab. The crop is then later harvested in March. There is a special significance attached to the celebration of Lohri as this day the sun enters the Rashi (zodiac) of Makara (Capricorn), considered auspicious as it signifies a fresh start.
