Correct Answer: Moon


Solution : The correct answer is the Moon.

Parsis observe Nowruz, their new year, by attending the synagogue three times. During these visits, they worship Khorshed, associated with the sun, and Meher, linked to the moon. Celebrated on the first day of the first month in the Shehenshahi calendar, followed by Zoroastrians, Nowruz holds significance in the Parsi community as they welcome the beginning of a new year in their faith.
