first sunrise
January first daybreak
The first sunrise of a new year holds symbolic significance in many cultures, representing fresh beginnings and renewal.
In Japan, viewing the first sunrise (*hatsuhinode*) is a cherished New Year's tradition.
The phrase also appears in creation narratives and poetic contexts to mark primordial or mythic beginnings: They waited on the mountain for the first sunrise of the new millennium.
