  • Story:

    It is believed that Loy Krathong, or ‘the festival of light,’ originated in the ancient city of Sukhothai, located about five hours north of Bangkok. It is not necessarily a religious holiday, but you will see many Thais praying to the water goddess, Mae Khongkha.

    Celebration:

    Each candle has a prayer, memory, or wish attached to it as it makes it way down the water system. The festival celebrates new beginnings, letting go of their misfortunes or whatever is holding them back. The water carries the negativity away downstream for good.

    Burning incense and lit candles cover the tops of the krathongs, which are the circular objects, usually made of banana leaves and flowers, floating down the river. Loy means ‘to float.’

Maggie M. acknowledges the Traditional Owners of woka (land) in the Echuca/Moama region: the Yorta Yorta Nation, whose clans include the Bangerang, Kailtheban, Wollithiga, Moira, Ulupna, Kwat Kwat, Yalaba Yalaba and Ngurai-illiam-wurrung people.

We pay respect to their Tribal Elders, we celebrate their continuing culture, and we acknowledge the memory of their ancestors.  We thank them for their continued care for woka, including Dhungala (Murray) and Yakoa (Campaspe) river and forests.
