Post by : Bianca Qureshi

The Lion and Sun, a historic emblem of Iran representing sovereignty, identity, and continuity, is making a notable comeback as it appears across protests and international rallies, symbolizing hope for change. Long associated with Iran’s pre-revolutionary era, the symbol is being reclaimed by many Iranians as a vision for a future grounded in peace, dignity, and national unity.

Supporters say the resurgence of the Lion and Sun reflects a collective desire to move beyond decades of conflict and repression toward a new chapter defined by freedom, stability, and coexistence. Its growing visibility worldwide underscores its role as a powerful reminder of Iran’s cultural heritage and the aspirations of its people.
