शुक्र · सित 01

Thiruvonam -- the principal day of the ten-day Kerala harvest festival, falling on Shravana Nakshatra in the Malayalam solar month of Chingam (when the Sun is in Simha Rashi). The day commemorates the annual return of King Mahabali to visit his subjects; the Bhagavata Purana (8.15-23) records the Vamana avatara of Vishnu and the granting of this boon. Celebrations include the Onasadya feast, pookalam floral arrangements, and Vallam Kali boat races.
