Not everyone celebrates the new year in the middle of winter; for 300 million people around the world, their new year begins at the moment of the vernal equinox. The holiday of Nowruz celebrates that “new day” by encouraging us to make poetic connections between life and death, and past and present. National Geographic photographer, Babak Tafreshi, reacquaints us with the shimmering origins of this ancient Persian holiday; they are above our heads, shining in the night sky.
