"Deepawali" literally means a row of lamps (in Sanskrit "deepa" = lamp and "aawaLi" = row, line). In due course, the popular name has shortened to Diwali, especially in northern India. While Diwali is popularly known as the "festival of lights", a more appropriate significance is "the new year of luck and wealth" and it is celebrated with a variety of fireworks.
So here’s wishing all of you out in Blogosphere and your families a very Happy & Prosperous Diwali !
