History of New Year Tradition

The modern Gregorian calendar and Julian calendar both observe January 1st as the start of a new year. The world welcomes the new year with zeal and excitement, with people celebrating the final day of the current year with fireworks, dance, and music at midnight. The start of the new year is the ideal time to set your goals for the following year. It’s time to move on from the events of the last year and make room for fresh possibilities in the next year.

The day, dedicated to Janus, the deity of doorways and beginnings in pre-Christian Rome. This deity, also commemorated during the month of January. It also remembered the Feast of the Naming and Circumcision of Jesus, still honoured in the Anglican and Lutheran Churches. On this day, the Roman Catholic Church, on the other hand, commemorates the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God. However, because the Feast of the Circumcision came within the 12 days of the Christmas season in the Western Christian liturgical calendar, European Christians exchanged Christmas gifts on that occasion.

People throughout the world enjoy this day with fireworks at midnight, large feasts, and other enjoyable activities. To celebrate the event, people also exchange greeting cards. Making New Year’s resolutions is one of the many customs. Some nations organize parades, such as London’s New Year’s Day Parade, Pasadena’s Tournament of Roses Parade, and Philadelphia’s Mummers Parade. On this day, notable athletic events do have organized in the United Kingdom and the United States.

Many of you may have also seen a classic editorial cartoon depicting Father Time wearing a sash with the previous year printed on it, handing over the reins to the Baby New Year, who is also wearing a sash with the new year printed on it. Babies born on this day, sometimes referred to as “New Year babies.” Some hospitals in the United States now provide rewards to the first baby born in the new year.

New Year’s Resolution

A New Year’s resolution is a cultural practice mostly followed by western countries. However, this practice is now familiar in eastern countries too. On New Year’s day, a person resolves to continue good practices, change an undesirable trait or behaviour, and achieve a personal goal. Or otherwise, improve their life at the start of a new year. Many

Christians prepare for the next year by praying and making these resolutions at watch night services (December 31). The Covenant Renewal Service is the liturgy used for the New Year’s Eve watch night service in Methodist Christianity. In addition to being historically held on New Year’s Eve, many churches offer the Covenant Renewal Service on both New Year’s Eve and the morning of New Year’s Day. There are numerous religious parallels to this tradition.

During the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, and the High Holidays that follow, culminating in Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement), one is to reflect on one’s misconduct over the year, and both seek and receive redemption. People might behave similarly during the Christian liturgical season of Lent, albeit the motivation for this festival is more of a sacrifice than a sense of obligation. The idea, regardless of religion, is to reflect on self-improvement once a year.

Why January 1 is the first day of the year?

The Roman republican calendar and the Julian calendar designated January 1 as the start of the New Year. The date was chosen in part to celebrate Janus, the Roman deity of beginnings and the name of the month. Though medieval Christians sought to replace January 1 with more religiously significant days. Pope Gregory XIII issued a new calendar in 1582 that formally confirmed January 1 as New Year’s Day. That date was rapidly embraced across Europe and beyond, and it later expanded to countries with no significant Christian traditions.
