Manoto Norouz Promo (2016,2017,2018)

Norouz is the traditional Iranian new year holiday. It is the most cherished of all Iranian festivities. Norouz marks the first day of spring and the beginning of the Iranian solar calendar. It is celebrated on the day of the astronomical vernal equinox (start of spring).

 

A major tradition of Norouz is the preparation of an elaborately prepared spread known as the Haft Seen - the seven ’S’s, seven items starting with letter S or sîn in Persian alphabet, which are seven specific items corresponding to the seven creations and the seven holy immortals protecting them.

Greenery (Sabze) – wheat, barley or lentil sprouts grown in a dish Samanu (Samanu) – a sweet pudding made from germinated wheat The dried fruit of the oleaster tree (Senjed) Garlic (Sir) Apples (Sib) Sumac berries (Somāq) Vinegar (Serke)
These items are also known to have astrological correlations to planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Sun and Moon.

Other symbolic items which are usually set along the Haft Seen are candles, a mirror, decorating coins (Sekke), Hyacinth (Sombol) and decorated eggs. A bowl of water with goldfish, A poetry book (e.g. the Divan of Hafez)
