Its always fun to bring a tradition to life in a new light.. be it a differently decorated “Christmas tree” or a more fun “Easter Bunny” hunt
Holi is no different, and certainly one that works well inside the BDSM world. Its traditionally the celebration of colors, love and spring (here is your Wiki)
Some things to consider when doing traditions, especially holi, is to try and capture the core of where the joy lies.
Suggestions for the more sensual plays:
As canvases are so ‘inconvenient’ to try and get your hands on, why not decorate your partner in some fun colors or spring time flowers for a nice photo shoot. You can add sensory to it by layering the colors with different scent.
You also could join in, and use body paint on both of you and ‘decorate’ a nice bedsheet with love.
Another part of Holi is the celebration of spring. THAT DOES NOT ALWAYS MEAN HAVING SEX OUTSIDE, but of course you could enjoy a spring time picnic in some secluded area.
More extreme:
It includes a celebration of past errors, so you could have a confession session where the sub advises the DOM of the errors. They are then rightfully discouraged from repeating and they are then forgotten to never emerge again. Its always fun with a little cleansing.
One of the first signs of spring are not just flowers but also nettles. why not have some picked for some lovely nettle tea, or to use as a gentle flogger. Keeping in mind to make sure there is no allergy beforehand, and to keep it gentle.
Note there are also many fun ways to color without using paint. Wax is always fun and can make some great art. If your sub enjoys a bruising, you can add some or use fun suction cups for a different flavour in certain places.
