In Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu women decorate the front yard of their houses with rangoli (also known as kollam or muggulu) and farmers conduct a special puja before cutting paddy in their fields. Farmers pray to the earth and sun and anoint their sickles and ploughs with sandal wood paste. Then they proceed to the farms to cut the paddy.

In South India, people light up bonfires in front of their homes. They keep the fires burning by throwing useless household articles such as old clothes, old wooden furniture etc. They also burn agricultural waste in the bonfires. Women sing songs and dance around the bonfires and recollect the glories of the spring season and different Gods. The bonfires also symbolize the disposal or burning of old habits, vices and attachment to materials and relations.

Why is Lohri called Bhogi in South India?

Bhogi is the first day of the four-day Pongal festival. In Tamil Calendar, this corresponds to last day of the Tamil month Maargazhi.

On Bhogi, people discard old and derelict things and concentrate on new things causing change or transformation. At dawn, people light a bonfire with logs of wood, other solid-fuels and wooden furniture at home that are no longer useful.

Lohri coincides with the festivals of Bhogi(part of Pongal) and Bhogali Bihu.

Lohri actually marks the end of winter season, and is a traditional welcome of longer days and sun’s journey to the northern hemisphere.

It falls in the month of Paush and is set by the solar part of the lunisolar Punjabi Calendar. Bonfires are lit after the weeks of the rabi season cropping work, and people socialize around the fire, sing and dance together.
