🌅Sinhala and Tamil New Year 🎇🪔

 


When the sun moves from the Meena Rashiya to the Mesha Rashiya in the celestial sphere; Sri Lankans begin celebrating 🎉🥳 their New Year 🎇 or Aluth Auruddu and puththandu . It marks the end of the harvest season and also coincidence with one of 2 instances when the sun is directly above Sri Lanka.


Cultural rituals begin shortly after the beginning of the new Year with the cleaning of the house 🏠 and lightning of an oil lamp. In some communities, women congregate to play upon on the raban to warm others of the incipient change in the year- from lightning the fire to making the kiribath to entering in to the first business transaction and eating the first morsels, Once these are done, the partying really begins as families mingle in the streets., Homes are thrown open and children are let out to play.  The ubiquitous plantain is dishes out alongside celebratory feasts of kavum and kokis 🤗😋🥳🎇🏠
