Why Purple for Day 9?
Purple is more than simply a gorgeous shade; it makes a statement! Surrounding yourself with this rich tone represents accepting ambition and the quest of wealth. So let’s get creative and infuse our celebrations with everything purple!
Purple: The royal choice for festive decor
Use purple flowers, such as orchids or lilacs, to create a lovely ambiance. These beauties not only look stunning, but they also radiate positivity. Add some purple torans with glittering gold accents to your entrance for the ultimate wow impact. If you’re feeling creative, build a purple rangoli with coloured powders and flower petals—don’t forget to add some silver glitter to make it really glow!
Divine bhog offerings
How about grapes, plums, or purple figs? Want to keep it sweet? Try making ube halwa or blueberry barfi to make dessert stand out. For savoury options, try brinjal bharta or a delicious purple cabbage stir-fry. Garnish your bhog offerings with edible flowers or sprinkle some silver leaf for a royal look.
Purple OOTD
Now, let’s get to the OOTD that will have everyone talking! Whether you choose a gorgeous purple lehenga with elaborate embroidery or a flowy purple gown that exudes elegance, you’ll undoubtedly turn heads. Not a fan of tradition? To keep it current and stylish, wear a gorgeous purple jumpsuit with bold silver jewellery.
Thoughtful purple gifts
Looking for presents that match today’s theme? Consider purple silk scarves or dupattas, which are ideal offerings to the goddess or contemporary gifts for your friends. Add some purple candles or lavender sachets as a personal touch to show you care. If you’re feeling creative, homemade treats like blueberry jam or lavender cookies are a lovely touch!
On this final day of Navratri, embrace the spirituality and ambition that purple symbolises. Allow Goddess Siddhidatri’s blessings to lead you to a happier, wealthier future.
