In order to make wishes come true, it is customary to prepare special foods and distribute them on this night. Noodle Soup and mixture of seven dried nuts and fruits, pistachios, roasted chic peas, almond, hazelnuts, figs, apricots, and raisins.

در ایران باستان، جشن آتش یا جشن سوری از جمله جشن های آریایی بوده است که امروزه تنها چهارشنبه سوری و جشن سده از آن به یادگار مانده است. جشن آذرگان ، شهریورگان یا آذر جشن دیگر اجرا نمی شود.

Sorkhie to az man, Zardieh man az to, literally means your redness (health) is mine, my paleness (pain) is yours. This phrase is whispered in Chaharshanbeh Soori, ancient purification ritual, while people jump over the fire.

Another tradition practice in Chahar-Shanbeh Soori is that people, most often children and young adults, wear strange dresses and sometimes wrap themselves up in sheets to symbolize the shrouds of the dead and head go to the street with pots and pans to create a cacophony you will never forget. As the saying goes, they could wake the dead! And that's pretty much the intention; this ancient ritual is said to ward off evil spirits. Then the kids go door to door to receive Chaharshanbeh Soori nuts, chocolates, etc.
