Vasant Panchami Pooja is an important Hindu festival celebrated in India on the fifth day of the Hindu month of Magha. It marks the arrival of spring and the end of winter. On this day, people worship Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge, music, and arts.

Rituals include chanting mantras, offering flowers and fruits, and lighting diyas. Devotees wear yellow clothes, decorate their homes, and prepare special dishes such as kheer, puri, and halwa. Exchanging sweets and gifts symbolizes love and friendship.

The color yellow is symbolic of energy, prosperity, and the warmth of the sun which heralds the spring season. Vasant Panchami is celebrated as a festival of knowledge, creativity, and cultural renewal. Students and artists particularly seek blessings from Goddess Saraswati for wisdom and inspiration on this auspicious day.
