Norouz, The Iranian Ancient New Year

Hi :D

The Iranian ancient new year is going to take place. It's called "Norouz". Here, I just like to say my sense in the words of Farsi:

سال نو مبارك

say: "saale no mobaarak", which means "Happy new year".

Norouz is the first day of spring and the beginning of the Iranian year. It is celebrated by Iranian and some other countries on March 21st. Deppending on astronomical vernal equinox, it could be on March 21, 22 or 20, (the start of spring).
Norouz comes from "No" + "Rouz", the both of them are Farsi, "No" means new and "Rouz" means day, meaning new day. Remember, the saadi says:

برآمد باد صبح و بوي نوروز .... به كام دوستان و بخت پيروز

مبارك بادت اين سال و همه سال .... همايون بادت اين روز و همه روز

I think the Norouz is one of our most beatifull traditions which can make links between families when they are far far away.
