We are deep into preparations for Persian New Year.
Nowruz (sounds like know rooz).
We celebrate the first day of spring. New beginnings, new life, new blossoms, fresh green grass – rebirth. Nature – Mother Earth wakening from her deep winter slumber.
Nowruz this year falls on Wednesday March 20 at 4:01:56 am (PST). Vernal equinox. Exactly the moment when the Earth’s axis tilts neither towards nor away from the sun.
