This festival, observed on July 1, is celebrated in ancient Iran to honor Archangel Tishtrya. Tishtrya is the deity of the star Sirius and keeper of rain. Legend has it that Tishtrya, in the form of a white horse, fought his antithesis, the demon Apaosha in his form of a black horse during the dry and hot summer month of July. If Tishtrya brought healing rains, Apaosha brought drought. As faith in Archangel Tishtrya diminished amongst the people, their prayers also faltered, giving Apaosha strength as Tishtrya weakened. Upon his last plea, in his most vulnerable state, Tishtrya appealed to Creator Ahura Mazda. Creator Ahura Mazda then offered him a sacrifice, and Tishtrya won the battle against Apaosha. The Zoroastrian Festival of Rain honors the importance of offerings and sacrifice of our own faith and spiritual practices. It highlights the importance of giving as well as receiving – to always practice gratitude and pay it forward. These small things are beautiful sacrifices we can do every day, and on this day, these sacrifices are celebrated and returned with fertile and healing rains.
