Welcome to the second day of celebrating Pancha Ganapati!

Pancha Ganapati is a modern Hindu holiday, developed around the elephant-headed God Ganesha, that runs from December 21-25. Like Kwanza, it was created around the Solstice/Christmas/Hannukah time, but with a spiritual/community focus for each day. And each day also has its own color!

The first day is December 21 (the Solstice), and is the color yellow and is focused on FAMILY. So this is the day when you work through or just forgive any issues you have with family members. For the second day, the color is blue and you do the same thing with FRIENDS and COMMUNITY. So that seemed to be the perfect day for me to share this on my blog. As for the other days, you can watch this video:

I’m into music these days, so here is a lovely Pancha Ganapati music video from Hawaii:

So much to celebrate at this time of the year from so many different spiritual traditions and parts of the globe!
