13 bedaar!
We have lots of ceremonies and festivals that were celebrated before. But nowadays just some of them remain. One of the most interesting ones is 13Bedar.how What a strange name. ,isn’t it?
Our new year is in first the beginning of spring. Nowrouz holiday is 12 days as representing of 12 months of a year.13th day of Farvardin is called 13Bedar.in In the past the 13th day of each month was called Tir ,It is the name of a holly holy angel, and they celebrate every month.
Most of us think that this day is infelicitous but it isn’t true. in In the history it is mentioned as one of the jubilant days in a year.
In this day people go out to parks or jungles and after 12 days of celebration they officially end Nowrouz. people do some interesting things. younger ones play different games and the elders prepareing food such as Kabab or Tahchin , these are some types of traditional Iranian food. Another custom is to eavesdrop other’s conversations, if they talk about good events your new year will be good, but if not unfortunately it won’t be a good year for you.
The other cute custom is knitting grass! “Do you have any idea about it?” it's popular for young girls and boys who wants to get married.They purposing wish and knit the grass and hope to get married in the new year. It is an old custom. I read in myths that the first couple in the world did it when they got married.
All of ceremonies and festivals has reason behind it. It’s good to be aware when we celebrate them.
I love this ceremony . My father had bornd in this day. Can you draw an imagin about 13! and its effect on my fatter, anyway, you can see he has a unique dauther!
