As spring approaches, many cultures around the world celebrate the start of a new year. One such celebration is Nowrouz, a Persian New Year that is observed by millions of people worldwide. Nowrouz is a time for new beginnings and renewal, and it is a celebration that is steeped in tradition and symbolism.
One of the most important traditions of Nowrouz is the Haft-Seen table. This table is set with seven items that begin with the Persian letter “sin” (س), which symbolizes the seven creations and holy immortals in Zoroastrianism. The items on the table may include Sabzeh (wheat or lentil sprouts), Samanu (sweet pudding made from wheat germ), Seeb (apples), Senjed (dried fruit from the lotus tree), Seer (garlic), Somagh (sumac), and Serkeh (vinegar).
In addition to the Haft-Seen table, Nowrouz is celebrated with various traditions such as jumping over bonfires to ward off evil spirits, buying new clothes to symbolize a fresh start, and visiting friends and family.
