Der Haft-Sin-Tisch zum persischen Neujahrsfest Nowruz besteht aus sieben symbolischen Elementen:

Sabze (Sprossen) – Munterkeit

Samanou (Malz) – Segen

Sir (Knoblauch) – Schutz

Sendsched (Mehlbeere) – Leben

Serkeh (Essig) – Geduld

Somagh (Sumach) – Geschmack

Sib (Apfel) – Schönheit

Zusätzlich: Hyazinthen (Freundschaft), Münzen (Wohlstand), Spiegel (Reinheit), Kerzen (Feuer), gefärbte Eier (Fruchtbarkeit), Goldfisch (Glück) & Bücher (Weisheit). 🏺✨ #Nowruz #HaftSin

In a couple of hours (2025-03-20 09:01:30 UTC) earth will go through the Northern Hemisphere spring equinox, which is the exact moment of Nowruz (a.k.a. Persian new year). This is one of the major differences of Persian new year and Gregorian calendar new year, that the whole earth will experience the new year at once and together, which is pretty cool 🤓

Happy #Nowruz to all Fedizens 🪻

Happy #Nowruz to all who celebrate. Makes much more sense to me to celebrate the #NewYear at the beginning of spring on an astronomically significant day rather than on some odd, astronomically insignificant day in mid-winter. I mean, what’s up with that anyway? So to celebrate Nowruz, which BTW is observed by an enormous population including in Iran, Central and South Asia, I’m posting a short video memorial to one of the greatest #mathematicians ever, who happened to be an #Iranian woman, Maryam Mirzakhani. The first woman to win the Field’s Prize, math’s equivalent to the Nobel, Mirzakhani broke barriers and forever changed her chosen field. A Harvard graduate and former professor at both Princeton and Stanford, she deserves more attention than she gets. Regrettably, she died far too young at 40. May the new year bring us more genius minds like hers. #math #mathematics #STEM #WomenInSTEM #science
