| Description |
This article describes some thoughts on the Sada celebration, which is one of the traditional rituals of the ancient Tajiks, the Arian people. Sada embodies the sun, and its symbol is fire. The fire is also sacred as people count the fire as the source of the warmth and light. Worship of the fire was spread among people in different ways. One of these forms of spreading had a mythical feature then it became the art of thinking of people like proverbs and popular beliefs. According to the opinion of the old people, the fire sent out seven colors. Seven colors from ancient times had a mystical significance. Sada is celebrated in all regions of Tajikistan in slightly different ways depending on a region's economic and cultural conditions. |
