Navroz: A Parsi New Year's Celebration of Accepting New Beginnings

Meaning in Culture: Navroz, which translates to "New Day," has its origins in antiquated Zoroastrian customs. It represents the arrival of prosperity and progress as well as the victory of light over darkness. Navroz, which falls on the vernal equinox, is widely observed by Zoroastrians, especially those of the Parsi community in India.

Jashan Ceremony: Held at Zoroastrian fire temples, the Jashan ceremony is a morning ritual of thanksgiving. We offer prayers for everyone's health, wealth, and communal well-being. Haft-Seen Table: In keeping with Persian customs, Parsi families arrange a Haft-Seen table that is decorated with seven symbolic objects, each of which begins with the letter "S." These objects stand for several facets of life, including forgiveness, love, rebirth, and health.



New Clothes and Housecleaning: Parsis take advantage of Navroz to buy new clothing and give their homes a thorough cleaning. Cleaning represents letting go of negativity and bringing in positive energy for the upcoming year.

According to Hindu mythology, Swarbhanu was an Asura (demon) who disguised himself as a Deva (god) to taste the nectar churned out during Samudra Manthan (the cosmic oceanic churning) which would grant immortality (amrita). Vishnu cut off his head using Sudarshan Chakra after realizing this fact thereby separating it into two parts: Rahu(the severed head) and Ketu(rest of its body).
