Nowruz is a time to celebrate the victory of light. Houses will be filled with candles, and mirrors polished bright to reflect their light. Nowruz is a time of change, from ice-locked winter to rushing streams, from barren earth to blossoming green, from hardness of heart to softening of affection.

People clean the house from top to bottom, and buy a new spring outfit. Nowruz is a time for celebrating the blessings of earth and the life it sustains.

Therefore every house will proudly put in the center of its holiday display a large platter of fresh green grass or sprouted wheat, wrapped in a bright red ribbon. Each of the items begins with the letter "s" in Persian. Some Zoroastrians say that it used to be the letter "sh" and certainly included wine, sharab , to toast the new year but that, since Islam banned alcohol, the entire display changed.

Another theory is that it signified "seven crops" or "seven items" Haft Chin. Persian culture is very flexible and both the number seven and the letter "s" are also flexible. On the last day of Nowruz, the 13th day, Iranians go outside for picnics. It is a day both to be out of the house and in nature and also to be sharing a meal with family.

Some Iranians have now taken this as a day to conduct a food drive for the poor, enlarging the sense of family. Discover the spirit of Nowruz with traditional music, dance and crafts from Central Asia and Iran. Details here.
