The city of Mosul is distinguished by the fact that its citizens come from different ethnic religious backgrounds, but they share some customs and traditions, which if they differ in appearance, but they intersect in many details, and the holidays are one of these occasions, and most of these holidays are celebrated at close times, the most important of which is the Festival Mosul, which is in April, and there is also the Nowruz and Akitu festival for the Chaldeans and Assyrians in the same season (spring), while other holidays are linked to lunar timings such as Eid Al-Fitr, and Red Wednesday is linked to this day.
Shape — Mosul’s Holidies
The formal formations of the symbols of the celebrations depend mostly on the central shape, especially the star, and these shapes are linked to the beliefs of the local population. We see the association of the crescent shape with the Eid for Muslims, while the radial shape of the terrain of Iraq (the two rivers) is linked to the symbols of the Assyrians, and we see the shape of the sun on Nowruz holidays, The circle shape is associated with the Spring Festival, and is derived from the pipon / chamomile flower
