Meaning
معنی۱
اردیبهشت is the most popular month for Iranian weddings. The weather is warm but not yet brutal, gardens are at peak, and the symbolism of the Yazata of truth and order makes the month auspicious for vows. Wedding halls in Tehran book up six months in advance for اردیبهشت dates. Iranian poetry, especially the ghazals of Hafez and Sa'di, refers to اردیبهشت as the season of the rose: گل اردیبهشت (gol-e ordibehesht) "the rose of Ordibehesht" is a poetic shorthand for ideal beauty.
