AT CHRISTMAS ALL ROADS LEAD HOME

hristmas has always been one of the most awaited holidays in Armenia. It is one of the unique holidays that make families get together in the warm, friendly and sincere atmosphere. In Armenia Christmas is celebrated on January 6 which has been the only kind, forgiving, charitable time so far in the long calendar of the year, when people opened up their hearts, expressed their true feelings and started to think of people below them. Christmas is special by its meaning and the way of its interpretation. It shows the spirit of love, generosity, goodness and the main meaning of the holiday- the holy birth of Jesus that set the beginning of a new life and spread God’s forgiveness all over our sins. It actually represents a human being who is almighty, who never dies and is the perfect living image of one true God. “ Who does not have Christmas in his heart will not find under a tree’’. Considering the true meaning of these words, each of us should take the celebration of Christmas-the birth of the only Son of God, as simple and of great importance as it was used to be celebrated; as the idea of Chirstmas is not just the luxurious celebration of the holiday with expensive presents, but the celebration of Christ himself honored with true prayers. Value the ritual meaning of holidays and its symbols carried throughout many years. We greatly hope that celebrating Christmas in Armenia will make you feel that purity and sincerity the day promises.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

However, people are filled with much enthusiasm and excitement how to please the crazy, fire monkey for having a generous and lucky year ahead. Of course, every Armenian family is impatient to cover the festive table with different mouthwatering dishes and sweets, but you should accurately consider the taste of the monkey for this year. What to put on the festive table? It is more preferable to make vegetarian salads including cheese and greens by all means, and other dishes made of vegetables, e.g ragu. If you are meat lovers, then it is suggested to make barbeque or lamb prepared on the open fire. Do not make fries, monkeys do not like them. The table has to be filled with a vase of fresh fruits: pineapple, banana, grapes, orange and kiwi. As for the drinks, monkeys love expensive drinks such as whiskey, cognac and sparkling wine. What to wear? The color trends for the year of fire monkey are red and all tones of red, orange, yellow, gold, maroon, chocolate, violet. Women are suggested to wear cocktail dresses on that day, they can be open enough, it is completely affordable. It is the right time to use parental jewelers or get new ones with natural stones. As for the make-up, it should be very light and natural. Different kinds of accessories such as hair brooches can be freely used. Preferred hairstyle is either pony tail or spread wavy hair. How to decorate the house and the tree? For interior and tree decorations, handmade ornaments are highly appreciated. So, work your imagination and show your creativity. The tree is advised to be decorated with sweets, currency notes, balloons, handmade snowflakes that would look great and special on your festive tree.

INTERPRETATION OF ARMENIAN NEW YEAR BY PR SPECIALIST ARMAN KHARAZYAN

ew Year is the most awaited holiday for all of us. Especially for Armenians New Year is among those unique holidays celebrated heartily despite of age, possibilities and mood. Old stories and traditions passed through different sources related to this holiday are interesting. As we know, since the 18th century Armenians considered 1st of January as the beginning of the year. Though there are historians mentioning that the idea of the word “year” has occurred in Old

Egypt, when dates existed, but different nations considered different months as the first month of the year, accordingly they celebrated New Year differently as well. As historians state, in historical Armenia New Year carried national meaning that was celebrated in festivals and parties by the participation of the nation. The decoration of New Year Tree was a tradition both among Armenians and other nations as well. In Armenian “amanor” has another name; that is “Navasard” which means new year (nava-new and sard- year). For old Armenians 1st day of Navasard was a national festivity. During that time different contests were held except from singing and dancing, for the participants to show off their abilities. On that very day, the first harvest of people was presented creating a grand event. It is also interesting to know, that in Armenia the character of Santa Claus or Kakhand Father comes from the great name of Armenian Catholicos Sahak Partev, who was famous in the history with his charity. Though nowadays in the 21st of century traditions and customs of New Year celebrations and the meals served at the traditional tables are changed, this holiday remains the most favorite for both Armenians and other nations. People are waiting for this holiday with great enthusiasm and expectations relating their dreams and goals to the very day. Happy New Year and Merry Christmas to all! Let 2016 be the year of great achievements, love, peace, welfare, happiness, new ideas and fulfilled dreams for our nation.
