New Year Traditions


    Coptic Egyptian New Year

    The Coptic New Year is based on the reappearance of Sirius, the Dog Star in the skies over Egypt.

    Copts observe the New Year with memorials to Coptic martyrs. Altar dressings and officiants' vestments are bright red on this day, to represent the martyrs' spilled blood. Also it is customary to eat red dates.
