For two days, India celebrates the Holi Festival, a tradition with a long history that aims to welcome spring with music, dance, joy and, above all, a lot of color. During its celebration, colored powders are thrown freely, covering both bodies and clothes with vibrant pigments.
Each color has a different symbology, red represents love and fertility, yellow is turmeric, blue is Krishna and green refers to the upcoming spring that has just begun.
With this festival, they encourage nature so that spring brings good harvests and fertility reaches all the fields of India. The first European merchants and British colonizers left written testimonies of its celebration in the 17th century.
