What is the meaning of the Persian New Year?

Every year, millions of people worldwide celebrate Persian New Year, or Norooz. Norooz marks the end of the old year and the beginning of a new one, and it occurs on the day of the vernal equinox. More accurately, the new year begins the second the equinox does — so, not just at the stroke of midnight. Usually, the equinox happens from March 19 to 21. People start getting ready for Norooz about three weeks before the actual date. The centrepiece of the festivities turn on the “Haftseen,” or a collection of items that symbolize a different hope for the new year. The following provides a great synopsis of the Haftseen, including its meaning and influences: Visit here.
