Nowruz mobarak!
"Nowruz, meaning "new day" in Persian, is an ancient festival marking the spring equinox and the beginning of the new year in the Iranian calendar. Celebrated for over 3,000 years, it symbolizes renewal, the triumph of light over darkness, and the rebirth of nature. It is observed by around 300 million people across Iran, Central Asia, the Caucasus, and beyond, often with family gatherings, traditional meals, the setting of a Haft Sin table with seven symbolic items, spring cleaning, and gift-giving. Nowruz is a secular and cultural celebration with roots in Zoroastrianism and is recognized by the United Nations as International Nowruz Day."
