Description

The myth of Tishtrya's battle with the demon of drought, Apaosha, is one of the most beautiful and important myths in Iran, which describes the Iranian society's perspective on how rain falls. Tishtrya is the shining and glorious star, the first star and the origin of all waters and the source of rain and fertility. The fourth month of the year is dedicated to Tishtrya, which marks the beginning of the hot season and a decrease in rainfall. Tishtrya, in the form of a golden-eared white horse with instruments and leaves, descended into the sea of the universe, where he confronted the demon Apaosha, who appeared as a black horse with terrifying black ears and tail. They fought face to face for three days and nights, but Apaosha proved to be stronger and Tishtrya, with great sorrow and grief, cried out to Ahura Mazda, expressing his inability due to the lack of proper worship and sacrifices from the people. Then Ahura Mazda himself sacrificed for Tishtrya, instilling in him the power of 10 horses, 10 camels, 10 bulls, 10 mountains, and 10 rivers. Once again, Tishtrya and Apaosha faced each other, but this time, empowered by the sacrifice, Tishtrya emerged victorious from the battlefield, and the waters could flow freely into the fields and pastures. The winds scattered the rain-clouds rising from the sea of the universe in all directions, and life-giving rains poured down upon the seven climes.
