I don't know d exact reason pa...but i have heard in my native place(tanjore and trichy) ...my relatives keep diyas in karthigai evenings in addition to their maadam(niche) diyas and also in margazhi mornings....after they finish their kolams....waiting for somebody who has a better answer to this.. :) .

Laksh...my hubby is saying as margazhi is a month devoted fully to music, bhakthi and kolams....(as it is not a practice to celebrate any function)...may be ladies in those days did big spl kolams during this month and also kept diyas...even now in srirangam and tanjore we can see lot of elderly men and children chanting bhajans on d streets in d early mornings of this month... :)

Rani, ur kudam ( 8) kolam is so cute with nice kuzhal border. Rani, I too kep the kolampaper with me while putting chikku kolam for referring then and there. Regarding the Deepams for margazhi kolam.. may be early morning ladies put the big kolam and to avoid people stamping on it during the early moring fog and dim light, diyas were kept!
