Regarding the philosophy behind Tirgan, there are two interesting narratives, and we will introduce them here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_First_Narration_Arash_Kamangir\"><\/span>The First Narration, Arash Kamangir<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the first narrative, the conflict between Iran and Turan continued for years. In the battle between Afrasiab and Manouchehr, the Iranian army faced a tough defeat on the first day of Tir. The Iranian forces found themselves in a difficult situation in Mazandaran, and eventually, both sides came to a compromise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To establish the border between the two countries and put an end to the conflict, they agreed to shoot an arrow towards the east from Mazandaran. Wherever the arrow landed would mark the border, and no country would go beyond that point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arash, the greatest archer among Iranians, could throw the arrow farther than anyone with his unique strength. The earth angel ordered Arash to take the bow and shoot an arrow towards the east. Arash then took the arrow and bow, climbed the heights of Mount Damavand, released the arrow towards the east, and fell lifeless to the ground. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/arash-kamangir.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/arash-kamangir.webp\" alt=\"tirgan festival history\" class=\"wp-image-4106\" srcset=\"https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/arash-kamangir.webp 800w, https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/arash-kamangir-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/arash-kamangir-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/arash-kamangir-705x529.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Arash Kamangir Statue<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ahura Mazda, the great god, commanded the wind angel to guard the arrow and protect it from harm. The arrow traveled across the sky from dawn until noon, passing over mountains, valleys, and plains until it settled next to a walnut tree, the largest in existence, by the Jeyhun River. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They made that place as the border between Iran and Turan, and every year, they celebrated Tirgan in remembrance of this event. The Tirgan festival among Iranians emerged from that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Second_Narration_Tishtriya\"><\/span>The Second Narration, Tishtriya<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second narration, Tishtar Baran or Tishtriya, the rain angel appears in the form of a fifteen-year-old youth in the first ten days of the month. In the next ten days, Tishtar turns into a bull, and in the last ten days, he takes on the appearance of a horse. Tishtar descends into the cosmic sea in the form of a white horse with beautiful golden ears and adorned with a golden mane and harness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There, he encounters the drought demon (Apaosha) in the form of a scary-looking black horse with black ears and tail. These two are engaged in a fierce battle for three days and nights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tishtar, however, faces defeat in this fight and seeks help from God. Seeking divine help, Tishtar once again triumphs over the demon of drought and allows the waters to flow freely in the fields and pastures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The winds carry the rain clouds from the cosmic sea and rain the life-giving rains throughout the seven regions of the earth. In celebration of this victory, Iranians celebrate a day of celebration in memory of Tishtar&#8217;s victory over the demon of drought and the subsequent blessing of abundant rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Is_Tirgan_Celebrated\"><\/span>How Is Tirgan Celebrated?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tirgan Summer Festival is celebrated with great enthusiasm and joy, which shows the rich cultural heritage of Iranian society. This festival is usually held in July and is dedicated to Tir, an ancient Persian god associated with rain and fertility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tirgan-celebration.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tirgan-celebration.webp\" alt=\"tirgan festival iran\" class=\"wp-image-4107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tirgan-celebration.webp 800w, https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tirgan-celebration-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tirgan-celebration-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/matcont\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tirgan-celebration-705x529.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Rituals of Tirgan Festival<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>During Tirgan, people participate in various celebrations, including traditional music and dance performances, art exhibitions, and cultural shows. One of the prominent traditions is to tie colorful threads around the wrist as a symbol of unity and friendship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Families and friends gather to enjoy delicious <a href=\"https:\/\/matinabad.com\/en\/top-persian-food-of-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Persian food<\/a>, and picnics in parks and public spaces are a common sight. Tirgan is a time when Iranians celebrate their culture, appreciate the blessings of nature, and strengthen their sense of community through shared experiences and traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Seven-Color_Bracelets\"><\/span>Seven-Color Bracelets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the beginning of the Tirgan summer festival, people sweeten their mouths with available sweets. After this sweet beginning, they adorn their wrists with bracelets called &#8220;Tir and Bad,&#8221; or seven-colored bracelets that symbolize Arash&#8217;s bow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These bracelets, which are usually woven from seven threads or ropes with different colors, have special importance. Nine days later, as the Tirgan festival ends on the 22nd day of Tir or Wind Day, people ceremonially throw their Tir and Bad bracelets to the wind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This ritual, which is held in a high place, is a tribute to Arash Kamangir and embodies personal and national aspirations, such as protecting the homeland from the devil&#8217;s trap. Leaving these bracelets to the wind becomes a symbolic movement that carries hopes and wishes for the welfare and protection of the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Aabpashi\"><\/span>Aabpashi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another common custom in the Tirgan summer festival is &#8220;Ab-Rizan&#8221; or &#8220;Aabpashi,&#8221; which involves splashing water on others. This tradition, which is known by titles such as &#8220;Abrizegan,&#8221; &#8220;Abpashan,&#8221; or &#8220;Sarshuran,&#8221; contains the wish for rain and to avoid drought. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants joyfully participate in sprinkling water on each other, symbolizing their collective desire for abundant rainfall and an easing of dry spells. This lively custom not only adds to the festive atmosphere of Tirgan but also brings collective hope for the prosperity and abundance of agriculture and makes it an integral part of the celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tirgan_Festival_Food\"><\/span>Tirgan Festival Food<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tirgan Festival food is a delightful showcase of Iranian culinary traditions that offers a feast for the senses.

The summer solstice is the longest day of the year and has cultural significance in Iran. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chelleh, which occurs around June 21st, is a joyful occasion where families and friends gather to celebrate the warmth of summer, nature, and abundant life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People participate in various celebrations, including picnics, music, and dancing. Chelleh is a reflection of the deep connection of Persians with nature and the change of seasons and has turned it into a lively and popular celebration in Iranian culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tirgan_Festival_Iran\"><\/span>Tirgan Festival Iran<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tirgan festival is the only surviving monthly festival from ancient Iran, which is held on the 13th day of the Tir month in the Zoroastrian calendar, corresponding to the 10th day of the solar month of Tir. This festival is held in different regions of Iran, and its history differs in each region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Mazandaran province and cities such as Firuzkuh, Sari, Savadkuh, and also Sangsar in Semnan province, a festival known as &#8220;Tir Rouz&#8221; or &#8220;Sizdah Shou&#8221; is held in the autumn season.
