Janmashtami, the holy festival of the birth anniversary of Lord Krishna is celebrated with great pomp all over India. On this day houses and temples are decorated with flowers, lights and special rangoli. Rangoli is not just a decoration, but a traditional way of inviting God.
If you want to make this time (Janmashtami 2025) even more memorable, then Rangoli can include the favorite elements of Kanhaji like Murali, Morpankh, Flute and Jhula. This will fill the environment of your home with devotion and happiness.
Lord Krishna’s Murali is a symbol of his identity and love. Use yellow, orange and blue colors to make a rangoli with a murally design. Make a border with small flower petals around Murali and write the name of Radha-Krishna in the middle. This design shows a glimpse of Kanhaji’s music and love.
Morpankh is an important part of the crown of Lord Krishna and is considered a symbol of beauty, peace and prosperity. Use green, blue and golden colors for this design. Make it alive by giving a white point at the tip of the peacock. This Rangoli will look very beautiful at the main gate of the house.
The swing on Janmashtami makes Kanhaji the most beloved reminiscent of his childhood. Make a wooden swing shape in a swing design rangoli, on which Kanhaji is sitting. Decorate with pink, yellow and green flowers. This design will attract both children and elders.
If you want to work hard, make Radha-Krishna shaped Rangoli. In this, fill the colors of facial gestures, crowns and clothes with special care. You can use marigold or rose petals in the background. This design is a unique confluence of devotion and love.
Kanhaji is very dear to Makhan, so Matki Rangoli is perfect for Janmashtami. In this, show the butter falling from the mat and make the hands of small gopis all around. This design will be made and attractive by red, yellow and white.
There is a simple but extremely effective design in which “Shri Krishna” or “Jai Kanha” is written. Create a circular design with flower petals around the letters. Yellow and blue combination will make it even more grand.
Janmashtami has bhajan-kirtan and lamp decoration overnight. You can make the atmosphere of devotion even more sacred by lighting a lamp in the middle of floral rangoli. Use more white and yellow flower petals in it and keep a picture of small Kanha ji in the middle.
