Diwali also known as the Festival of Lights, Diwali is celebrated for a variety of reasons, although common themes are the triumph of light over darkness and of good over evil. For many, this important annual observance is a time to welcome happiness and good fortune. Diwali comes from the Sanskrit word dīpāvali, meaning rows of lights, and refers to the popular practice of placing diyas, or oil lamps, throughout homes and temples. Other traditions include decorating entranceways with colourful geometric Rangoli patterns made with materials such as rice, sand, powder or flower petals, illuminating the sky with fireworks, and exchanging gifts and sweet treats.
