Instead of celebrating a new figure in the calendar, voers celebrate unity with their dear ones, sum up the results of the year, and set themselves up positively for the next year. The full name of this holiday is "Purple Dawn, Eternal Sun, Sparkling Night", but most often it is called simply the Day of Sparks.

It's a very quiet and peaceful day, even the megacities seem to slow down... By noon, the streets are empty, and most often at this time you can only meet those who either did not have time to buy the necessary gifts for the family, or overslept. All the families are in their homes, reminiscing, cooking festive dishes and listening to national music on the radio. In general, each family has its own traditions for the Day of Sparks. On this day, someone can visit the monuments of the past, someone will play board games, and someone, for example, will definitely bring a couple of bottles of their favorite tauha or some other fruit alcohol to the festive table.
Gifts are one of the most important parts of the Day of Sparks. The voer, who has not received any gifts, is clearly very lonely and unhappy 😞
But you can only stay completely alone on this day if you don't have any friends at all, and in the amicable society of voers it sounds like something unreal. Even if you're not part of someone's family, you're still going to end up at someone's table one way or another. Neighbors usually know whether you are lonely or not, and on the Day of Sparks they will definitely invite you to their place if there is nowhere to go at all.

The families of Rory (pink-haired) and Ambrilia (with chopsticks) are far away, Aiko (white-haired) does not have it. Most often they spend the Day of Sparks with Ian's (he is on the left) family, his mother and cousin are very important for this holiday, so they are only happy to share it with someone else.

"When thousands and millions of sparkling sparks combine into something more, a deafening bright lightning turns out" - this is about the essence of this day ⚡
