Nowrouz Mubarak!
we are going into the year 1403
Nowruz is a combination of Persian words نو now – meaning “new” – and روز ruz – meaning “day“.
To celebrate the start of the solar new year family members gather around a ‘haft-sin’ which is a table consisting of seven symbolic things taken from nature and their names begin with the letter ‘S’ in Farsi!
The arrangement this year was put together by a family at Cedar Place with homemade sweets.
Just wow: “we are going into the year 1403”
What a gorgeous reminder of the beautiful multiplicity we live and work in at UVic CCS. Nowrouz Mubarak Sadaf! So grateful to you and the Cedar Place family for their generosity in sharing and presencing this transitional celebration of spring and the new year.
Much gratitude,
Narda
Thanks so much, Sadaf, for your blog post!
What a thoughtful way to prepare for the new year. So grateful to the family for generously sharing and setting up the display for us.

We are certainly so very fortunate for such a beautiful connection with families and celebrations! I do so love the connection to the ‘new’ year and spring 🙂
Thank you!
