  Lord Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita  that his month is Margazhi from which one can imagine the beauty and sanctity of this month. In the early morning of Margazhi temples are opened earlier than other months. Poojas are conducted specially.

The month is also noted for its numerous music concerts. Another main feature of this month is beautiful rangoli/kolam drawn on entrance of houses and temples. The margazhi month is supposed to be sacred from all ascpects. This  it is rendered to the God himself in aim of attaining prosperity and blessings, hoping god showers with all good luck. God surely listens to our prayers in this month.

In the Margazhi month the Upanyasam is also very famous. In the upanyasam a great person who knows everything about the Mahabharatha, Ramayana, Bhagavad Gita etc will explain in the poetic format to the people and the people will also be very much interested in knowing more about the Upanyasam in Margazhi month.

The Climatic conditions in the Margazhi month will be excellent so that people will enjoy it to

The traditional form of Rangoli made use of designs and motifs based on nature, such as mango, creepers, flowers, swans, peacocks, etc. Even the colors in the traditional art form were extracted from natural dyes, like barks of trees, leaves, indigo, etc. However, the practice is not much in use now. These days, synthetic dyes have more or less replaced the natural dyes of the earlier times. The materials used in the Rangoli patterns of today give either a very flat appearance or a 3-D effect. Rangoli designs used presently include, geometrical patterns, the swastika, lotus, trident, fish, conch shell, creepers, leaves, trees, flowers, animals, etc.

Numerous households in the Indian subcontinent make use of Rangoli designs for decorating the courtyard of their house.
