Vanakkam to you too.
all the temples areopened in the early morning an does the pojja for gods.
Margali is important month for amman like mari,kali,durga.
Margasira/Margazhi is special for ALL religious and spiritual activities.
Lord Krishna in BG says that of all the months he is Margazhi-actually the sanskrit equivalent of it. The month is known as "peedu udai maadham" in Tamil, meaning great month. In all Vaishnavite temples of Tamil Nadu, they sing Aandaall's Thiruppavai first thing in the morning. Similarly in all Shiva temples, they sing Thiruvempaavai. Both urge the girls to get up early, to rush to pray, Krishna and Siva respectively, implicitly or explicitly stating that unmarried girls would get noble husbands etc. In fact, Thiruppavai starts with "Margazhi Thingall Mathi Niraindha Nannallal" meaning the month Margazhi is auspicious, therefore...
You can find the songs, free MP3 for thiruppavai (may be for the other one too) thru google.
Unfortunately, I do not know the special prayers in other languages specifically related to the month Margasira.
