What Is This Year’s Zodiac Animal?
This year is the year of the rabbit, which is the first of the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac. In Chinese culture, your zodiac animal can be indicative of your career, your health, and even the success of your relationships. Check out the video below to learn more about the Chinese Zodiac.
What Are Some Chinese New Year Traditions?
A staple of the beautiful Lunar New Year celebration is fireworks. Legend has it that a monster named Nian would come out to eat the villagers and destroy their homes on New Year's Eve. But why are fireworks so crucial to the festival? They are believed to scare away evil spirits and prompt a great start to a new year. The lion dance is also performed to scare off evil spirits. During some performances, the lions may bite people on the head to bring good luck.
What Is the Meaning of the Red Envelope?
Red is believed to be the color of good wishes and luck. Once the new year is started, red outfits are worn to visit relatives and friends. During the Lunar New Year, children and some fortuitous adults receive red envelopes full of lucky money.
May your Year of the Rabbit be full of peace. Celebrate with CXI by entering the giveaway for your chance to win a cash prize!
