The celebration of Trndez has pagan origins and is connected with the Sun and fire worship in the ancient Armenia of the pre-Christian period. Later, the Armenian Apostolic Church preserved this tradition as it was very popular among people. According to religious custom, this holiday is associated with the idea of coming forward to the Lord with fire, after 40 days of the Nativity. The main rite of this holiday is to jump over the bonfire. Mostly, it is done by either newlyweds or the bride and groom. To the sound of the Duduk, couples pass around bonfire 7 times, and then jump over it. It’s symbolic of the purification of the sins. The main thing is to not unclasp the hands, that the union will be strong. During the ritual, elders of the clan pour on the heads of newlywed wheat grains, so that the abundance follows throughout their life. Childless women, who desire to beget children, also can jump over the bonfire. The holiday is concluded with dancing round the bonfire and feasting later on that day.
