Happy New Iranian Year !!

Now-Rouz, in word, means “New Day”. It is the new day that starts the year, traditionally the exact astronomical beginning of the Spring.

Iranians take that as the beginning of the year.

Now-Rouz with its’ uniquely Iranian characteristics has been celebrated for at least 3,000 years.

فرا رسیدن سال نو (1390) را به تمام هموطنان ایرانی عزیزم تبریک عرض میکنم

امیدوارم سال خوبی  پیش رو داشته باشید

Iranians consider Nowruz as their biggest celebration of the year, before the new year, they start cleaning their houses (Khaane Tekaani), and they buy new clothes. But a major part of New Year rituals is setting the “Haft Seen” with seven specific items. In ancient times each of the items corresponded to one of the seven creations and the seven holy immortals protecting them. Today they are changed and modified but some have kept their symbolism. All the seven items start with the letter “S”; this was not the order in ancient times. These seven things usually are: Seeb (apple), Sabze (green grass), Serke (vinager), Samanoo (a meal made out of wheat), Senjed (a special kind of berry), Sekke (coin), and Seer (garlic).

Sometimes instead of Serke they put Somagh (sumak, an Iranian spice). Zoroastrians today do not have the seven “S”s but they have the ritual of growing seven seeds as a reminder that this is the seventh feast of creation, while their sprouting into new growth symbolized resurrection and eternal life to come.

    The last photo of the winged bull (the man with the wings mainly) Is NOT Persian. It is Assyrian Art. Do not be mistaken for this. Just like this website its self. All the photos they use for their logo is not Persian art. It is Assyrian art. But It seems like Jewish people own this website because they hate Assyrians because we used them as slaves thousands of years ago. Assyrians are one of the first civilization of the world. ( to be exact, the second) and Assyrians are one of the main reasons why we have technology, for many reasons but mostly because of the lens. but I dont want to educate you right now. But if you want to hear more about these people just search in the Google video…. Assyrian Legacy. and the film is acted by a famous actor, It is George Kennedy. But please take some time to educate your self. And if someone puts a negative comment on this comment, then your probably a Jew. But there is nothing wrong with Jews.
