I love this time of year and by now, I think you understand my affinity toward Fire. In the Iranian tradition, on the eve of the last Tuesday before the Spring Equinox, which is also the Persian New Year, we gather to jump over Fire as a ritual of release and transformation.

Charshanbeh Soori is an ancient tradition offering us all a portal to cleansing, protection, and renewal. It’s the night we harness the element of Fire for cleansing and protection in accordance with Zoroastrianism - a religion based on Fire worship and the elements, and the OG religion of the Iranian people.

You light a bonfire (a candle in your home is fine too if you’re not wanting to go out). Jump over the fire from one direction and ask it to take all that no longer serves you. Say it aloud. Sickness. Stuckness. Patterns. Sadness. Whatever.

Jump again in the opposite direction and ask the Fire to pour blessings into your life. Envision all the things you want to invite into your life. Dance. Be happy. Howl. Shake it out. And get tribal!
