GOL-GOL CHAHARSHANBEH
Another ancient Iranian tradition in Guilan, which has had some changes, is (Chaharshanbeh souri). It is done in the last Tuesday of the year. To do so some bushes and hay are gathered and are fired. They usually put it towards the kiblah and jumped over it.
This tradition which is held from zoraster and even before him, mixed with people’s belief in Islamic era and changed to almost Islamic one. Firing wild rue seed is also such a tradition which people tried to buy them from Sadat (our Islam’s offspring) …
The Chaharshanbeh souri tradition is performed in all parts of Guilan nearly the same, and sometimes there shoot or used firecracker. There was also a superstition idea about blessing, a man who carrying an axe went over to a tree that didn’t give fruits, but other people asked him not to cut the tree to guarantee it for a fruitful year.
