Monday was the second day of Holi and that’s when the colors come out in earnest. Also, the water balloons. I think there was a water component to the original festivals but now I think it’s just an excuse to have a giant water balloon fight. The water also makes the dyes stick more. Oh, the colors also apparently have meaning:
- Red is for Prosperity
- Green is for Happiness
- Blue is for Sensitivity
- Orange is for Progress
- Pink is for Friendship
