How Chinese Zodiac Sign Like to Dress on Chinese New Year

Rat

Chinese Woman in red dress

A woman born in the Year of the Rat will prefer a lace dress on this particular night. She loves being fashionable but likes taking a risk regarding her favorite outfits. That is precisely why she manages to pull it off and look amazing because she dares to create unique combinations.

The Rat chooses a bright red or black for a seductive outfit, which makes her look gorgeous.

Ox

It doesn’t even cross the Oxen’s minds to go shopping specifically for a party outfit. Whatever they find in their wardrobe is good enough for them. They want to feel comfortable and move freely, mainly because they love partying for hours, and rigid clothes wouldn’t help.

Tiger

On the night of the Chinese New Year, Tigers buy themselves luxurious clothes that are elegant, glamorous, and classic fashion.
In the case of Tiger women, they display their generous bosom and their hips.

Rabbit

With New Year on the doorstep, Rabbits are easily recognizable by their distinctive dress. They are those people who choose to wear their country’s traditional clothing instead of fancy clothes from famous brands. Rabbits have beautiful costumes, sometimes inherited from their parents and grandparents, which they proudly wear on holidays.

Dragon

For the Chinese New Year party, the Dragon has the perfect excuse to buy a new pair of shoes, a suit, or expensive jewelry. Well-known brands are his primary target. On holidays, the Dragon researches the latest fashion trends and chooses an outfit to impress.

Snake

The Snake usually prefers a look that’s as natural as can be. With all that said, on special occasions, like Chinese New Year’s Eve, Snakes surprise the others with their impressive outfits, perfectly chosen for the event. On holidays, the Snake dresses elegantly, opting for simple and subtle outfits.

Horse

The woman born in the Year of the Horse is a store’s best client during the holidays. They choose at least one outfit for each event they’ll go to. These Women adore clothes, know about every fashion trend, and can create great outfits that draw attention and admiration from those around them.

Sheep/Goat

Those born in the Year of the Sheep don’t understand the reason there even exists a dress code at some holiday parties, to begin with. To them, clean clothes are good enough to spend the Chinese New Year with. They prefer spending money on other things rather than on a special suit.

Monkey

The celebration of Chinese New Year is a great time to shine for those born during the Year of the Monkey. New Year’s parties are perfect occasions for them to show their sexy clothes, which are tight and of a darker color.

Garnet and gray are their preferred colors. The materials used are leather and velvet.

Rooster

The Rooster isn’t the kind that spends all their money on clothes for New Year, but he also wouldn’t just go to the party in jeans. Those native to this sign are organized and disciplined beings who always have something special in their wardrobe for special occasions.

Those born in the Year of the Rooster prefer classic dresses, which never go out of style.

Dog

People born in the Year of the Dog are the most fickle when picking an outfit for the holidays. If they don’t go out shopping, they are ignorant of the dress they’ll wear on Chinese New Year. Although, if they see a friend wearing something they like way more, they can spend ridiculous amounts of money for a similar outfit.

Pig

Those born in the Year of the Pig wish to be surrounded by friends and family more than they want to wear some fabulous clothes. That’s why natives of this sign are often quite stingy when paying for festive clothes, not even for a fancy party. They prefer classic, traditional, and business outfits to party ones.

Powerful Feng Shui Advices for Bedroom

1. The ideal choice for setting the bedroom is to pick the farthest room from the main entry door of the house. Subconsciously, this will induce a feeling of safety, stability, and protection.The worst place for having the bedroom is next to the main door. However, we need to be realistic because sometimes there’s not much choice. However, if you don’t have this option, consider the other tips and make the most of your space.

2. Place a money tree plant in the corner of your bedroom to prevent the stagnation of energy in that very corner.
If you want to improve your relationship with your partner, choose pink and red – these colors will contribute to your love life. Don’t forget that these colors can be used only as minimal accents; intense colors such as red, orange, or yellow are primarily associated with Yang and can be too stimulating for the bedroom.

3. If you are not involved in a relationship but wish to be, you can decorate your bedroom as if you were already involved in a relationship.Place nightstands and lamps on both sides of the bed. Use pairs of accessories and make sure everything is symmetrical.If you don’t live by yourself, consider the bed as an altar of love by placing on the nightstand objects like a couple of pictures, a pair of candles, and a plant with round leaves. Don’t forget to add a few pink or red accessories around the bed to encourage romance. And use the power of Mandarin ducks – the ultimate love symbol in Feng Shui.

4. Clutter in your bedroom hinders the free flow of Chi. However, don’t try to solve this problem by hiding everything under the bed because this will only block the energy and cause your life stagnation.Give some thought to the objects you keep in the bedroom and remove any elements related to work and all the things that have anything to do with memories that would better be forgotten; for example, gifts from past relationships.

5. To achieve a warm and pleasant ambiance, paint the bedroom walls in neutral colors, like cream or peach; light blue, green, and lavender invoke healing energy. Also, check which are the year’s lucky colors and use shades of these colors to decorate your bedroom. Use similar colors for the furniture and the walls. Feng Shui doesn’t allow major contrasts in the color design. This unbalances the energies in the bedroom.

6. Remove objects like TV, fitness equipment, and computer because they tend to absorb a lot of energy, and they can distract you from getting rest or having some romantic moments.Few books on the nightstand can encourage Zen; however, if you have a bedroom full of bookcases that need to be read, they can also sidetrack you from getting rest. If you want to have these elements in your bedroom, the best idea is to use a screen to hide them while you sleep.

7. Place the bed as far as possible from the door and avoid a straight line position. Don’t place it under a window because it would lack the symbolical protection of a solid wall, and it might cause tormented sleep due to the energy that flows in and out of the window. Invest in a headboard because it offers good support for the head.Don’t place the bed in the corner of the room because is bad feng shui. To obtain the best bed positioning for wealth, in feng shui, we follow the concept of command position. You would like your bed to be positioned so that you can view the bedroom entrance when you lie in bed. Still, you don’t want to be in straight alignment with the door, either. A straightforward guideline is setting the bed diagonal to the door.

8. Place art pieces or objects in the bedroom representing the Year of the Dragon.One way to decorate your bedroom for the Year of the Dragon is to place art pieces or objects that symbolize this powerful and auspicious animal. For example, you could hang a painting or a poster of a dragon on the wall, or display a dragon figurine or a sculpture on your dresser or nightstand. You could also use dragon-themed bedding, pillows, curtains, or rugs to add some color and texture to your room. By placing these items in your bedroom, you are inviting the energy and qualities of the dragon into your life, such as courage, wisdom, prosperity, and success.

9. Avoid placing the mirror on the opposite side, next to or above the bed. This will reflect the energy in the entire room, not allow you to enjoy a pleasant rest, and will intensify all your problems and worries.The mirrors from the bedroom are considered an invitation for a third person to interfere in your relationship with your partner. The only way to avoid this is to place decorative objects in front of such a mirror, covering them up when you go to bed.

10. Illumination is a critical factor in Feng Shui. Use blinders that can be easily opened in the morning to allow in the natural daylight and easily closed at night to block the darkness from outside.Thoroughly clean your windows to brighten a dark bedroom naturally. Such advice is so self-evident yet often overlooked. Like if you wear sunglasses with spots on them, a bedroom with smudged windows will feel messy and restrict viewability. Grab a proper window washer and clean the windows – both inside and outside. You’ll instantly appreciate the refreshed sensation that accompanies this, and you’ll be amazed at how much daylight your room can bring in.

11. Don’t use water symbols in the bedroom.Water in the master bedroom is a feng shui fable. Refrain from displaying water pictures or having a water element, such as a fountain or aquarium, in the bedroom. If you wish to include a water feature, it is probably wise to do so in the bathroom.

12. If you are sharing your bedroom with someone else and suffer from light sleep – consider putting carpets all over the bedroom. This will reduce the noise of your partner’s footsteps if he/she wakes up in the middle of the night and decides to go to the kitchen or the bathroom—that way, you won’t find yourself waking up without any chance to sleep again. Feng Shui is helpful for people who suffer from insomnia.

13. Don’t keep stuff under your bed. This is not a very good Feng Shui idea. Could you put them in the closet or in big drawers? Keeping stuff under your bed prevents energy from circling you and the furniture.

14. Don’t use sharp shapes in your design. Let there be wide angles. For instance, your windows may be in the shape of an arch. This will decrease the number of angles.

15. Put a few candles. You can even put a red one, especially if you share your bed with someone else. Let the candles be with a lovely, relaxing scent.

16. If you want to attract wealth into your bedroom, you must keep an important Feng shui principle in mind. While facing towards the entrance to your bedroom, the furthest left back corner is the wealth area of your bedroom. Include some of these elements to energize the area of wealth in your bedroom: integrate purple decorations, paintings or furniture, add vibrant green plants because they will boost your good fortune

  • Fish that live on the bottom of the sea, such as catfish and halibut. This may indicate a low or poor status in life.

For example, in Greece, people bake a cake with a silver or gold coin inside and whoever finds it will have a fortunate year.

Another tradition that involves food and luck is the Spanish one of eating 12 grapes at midnight, one for each month of the next year. This is also a chance for brides to put their wedding ring in their champagne glass and toast with their loved ones.

In Portugal, instead of grapes, people eat 12 figs at the end of the year, each one representing a wish for the new year. Figs are also a symbol of fertility and prosperity in some cultures.

In Belgium, people enjoy a hearty meal of choucroute, which is a type of sauerkraut with sausages, on January 1st. They also keep a coin under their plate, in their hand or in their pocket, hoping to have money throughout the year.

Are you looking for some delicious and auspicious fruits to enjoy in the new year? Whether you celebrate the Gregorian calendar or the lunar calendar, there are some fruits that can bring you luck, health and prosperity in 2024.

In this article, we will introduce you to 12 magic fruits that have special meanings and benefits for both the Western New Year and the Chinese New Year. Some of them are common, some of them are exotic, but all of them are tasty and festive.

Read on to find out what fruits you should eat on January 1st and February 10th to make 2024 your best year ever!

1. Kumquat Fruits – For a Year Without Illness

Kumquats are small, oval-shaped citrus fruits native to China and are commonly associated with good luck and prosperity. They are typically eaten fresh, as the skin is edible and has a sweet flavor, and are often used in recipes for jams, jellies, and other preserves.

They are rich in vitamins A and C and have plenty of health benefits. Also, having these fruits on the New Year’s table is a good omen, as they are believed to bring luck and good health.

2. Oranges and Tangerines – Bring Luck and Happiness

Tangerines are considered a lucky fruit to eat on new years eve because they have a special meaning in Chinese culture. The Chinese word for tangerine, kam, sounds like the word for luck.

The shape of the tangerine is also round and golden, which symbolizes wealth and abundance. Oranges, which are similar to tangerines, have the same associations. The Chinese word for orange, cheng, sounds like the word for success. That’s why people exchange tangerines and oranges as gifts or display them as decorations during the Lunar New Year celebration.

3. Pomegranates – Represent Longevity and Prosperity

On the other hand, pomegranates are valued for their numerous seeds, which speak about fertility, but also due to their red color, which wards off evil spirits. Pomegranates are considered auspicious in Chinese culture because the Chinese word for pomegranate sounds similar to the word for many children, which is associated with good fortune and abundance.

4. Cantaloup – Symbolizes Family Reunion

Cantaloupes or yellow melons symbolize family and the fact that it will remain united over the coming year.

5. Apples – Attract Peace and Safety

The apples offered as gifts to family and friends during Chinese New Year attract well-being. In addition, those who eat apples on this fateful night will have a quiet life full of peace and harmony. In Western culture, apples are often associated with knowledge and wisdom, as in the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.

6. Pineapple – For Better Health

The word “Pineapple” or “Ong lai” means there will be a high chance of winning in the coming year.

On Chinese New Year, people can add pineapple to a whole bunch of foods, and a whole pineapple sitting on the table guarantees a good year in all areas of life.

7. Grapes – For a Prosperous Year

The tradition entails that you should eat 12 grape beans at midnight. In a habit that dates back to the 1880s, it is presumed that if you manage to eat the 12 grape beans (one for each month of the year) before the clock hits 12:01, you will have luck in the New Year.

In some parts, people hang bunches of grapes on doors and windows.

In Western culture, grapes are often associated with abundance and fertility, as they symbolize the bounty of the earth.

8. Mango – The Fruit of Happiness

The mango fruit is considered a bringer of luck in the religions of Southeast Asia and we find rituals related to Buddhism as well as Hinduism. It is a fruit that cannot be missing from the Lunar New Year’s table. In Hindu culture, mangoes are considered to be a sacred fruit and are often associated with love and happiness.

9. Papaya

Papaya is a tropical fruit that grows on a small tree with a palm-like trunk and large lobed leaves. The fruit is usually spherical or cylindrical, with yellow or orange flesh and black seeds inside. Papaya has a sweet and musky flavor that makes it a popular breakfast fruit, as well as an ingredient in salads, pies, juices, and other dishes. Papaya is also known for its health benefits, as it contains vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and enzymes that can help prevent and treat various diseases.

One of the reasons why papaya is considered lucky is because of its name. In many languages, the word for papaya sounds similar to the word for “papa” or “father”. For example, in Thai, papaya is called “malakor”, which sounds like “malakorn”, meaning “father’s horn”. In Vietnamese, papaya is called “du du”, which sounds like “daddy”. In Chinese, papaya is called “muh gua”, which sounds like “mother melon”. These names suggest that papaya is a symbol of parental love and protection.

Another reason why papaya is considered lucky is because of its shape and color. The round or oval shape of papaya resembles a gold ingot or a money bag, which are symbols of wealth and abundance. The yellow or orange color of papaya also represents gold or prosperity. According to Feng Shui, eating papaya can attract money and success in their lives.

10. Watermelon

Watermelon is not only a delicious and refreshing fruit, but it also has some symbolic meanings that can attract good luck, prosperity and abundance in the coming year.

Watermelon has many seeds that represent prosperity and abundance. Based on Feng Shui, seeds are a sign of potential growth and wealth. Eating watermelon on New Year’s Eve can help you manifest your goals and desires in the new year.

Also, Watermelon has a bright red color that symbolizes happiness and good fortune. Red is a lucky color in many cultures, especially in China and other Asian countries. Red is also associated with fire, which can ward off evil spirits and negative energies. Eating watermelon on New Year’s Eve can help you attract positive vibes and joy in the new year.

11. Avocado

The avocado is often regarded as a lucky fruit to eat on New Year’s Eve, as it is believed to bring good luck and prosperity. In some cultures, even the seed is cooked and used in some dishes. You can try some amazing avocado recipes for the New Year and also eat it as a good luck charm.

The unique green and purple color of this fruit symbolizes prosperity. It is also a nutritious snack when you are hungry. Avocado is also associated with health because it is full of vitamins, nutrients and minerals. It is a superfood that can help you start the New Year with energy and vitality.

12. Lemon

Lemon is a citrus fruit that has cleansing properties and can eliminate negative energies from one’s home and body. It is also symbolic of purification, fresh starts, and optimism going into the new year.

Some people use the fresh or dried rind and/or large green leaves of lemon to bathe in a cleansing ritual performed on Chinese New Year’s Eve to banish evil spirits that might be lurking about. Lemon also signifies longevity, friendship and love. The bright yellow color of this fruit can add a pop of color to any room, making it a great lucky fruit to display around your household

Conclusion

To sum up, these 12 fruits are not only delicious and nutritious, but they also have symbolic meanings that can bring you good luck in the new year. Whether you want to attract wealth, health, love, or happiness, there is a fruit for you. Try to include them in your New Year’s Eve dinner or your first breakfast of 2024. You might be surprised by the positive changes they can bring to your life. Remember, the magic is not in the fruits themselves, but in your attitude and gratitude. Happy New Year!

In the upcoming Year of the Wood Dragon, starting on February 10, 2024, those born under the Pig sign are set to enjoy a wealth of opportunities and numerous advantages. 

According to the Chinese Horoscope 2024, this promises to be, for the Pig, a period of genuine happiness, marked by personal triumphs, fortuitous encounters, and, above all, a surge in material prosperity.

Characterized by an open, cheerful, and affectionate disposition, people born under the Chinese zodiac sign of the Pig (including the years 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007 and 2019) will take center stage in 2024 alongside the star of the year, – Dragon. 

The year 2024 is predicted to be exceptionally prosperous for those born under the sign of the Pig. They will focus on themselves and cease to procrastinate their plans. They know how to embrace each moment and allow themselves to be guided by instinct. In 2024, thanks to the experiences you will have, you will get to know yourself very well and realize exactly what you want.

How Will the Pig’s Career Evolve in 2024?

The beginning of the year brings some career challenges. You may face numerous projects and challenges that require more time and effort. While there might be some tensions in the first few months of the year, maintaining focus and consistent work towards your goals will help you navigate these difficult periods. If you find yourself stressed, remember to take breaks and allocate time for relaxation.

Those born under the Pig sign who run their own businesses may encounter stiff competition, prompting the need for a new brand strategy. Enhancing communication with employees can help you turn ideas into concrete plans more efficiently. If you’ve been cautious with investments until 2024, we encourage you to take some risks this year, particularly in the first six months, which could bring unexpected financial gains.

How Will the Pig Be With Money in 2024?

The latter half of the year will require significant effort if you want to achieve a substantial income, which may limit your time with family and friends. It’s up to you to determine whether the responsibilities and obligations associated with your job are worth your full commitment. Nevertheless, the year’s end appears promising in terms of finances, making 2024 seem like a very favorable year from a financial perspective.

Will Pig find Love in 2024?

Although 2024 is expected to be a good year overall, there may be some complications in your love life. During the first three months of the year, people close to you will want to better understand your true feelings toward them. Pigs born in early March may experience surprising events, such as the return of someone from their past or receiving a surprise from their loved one.

In 2024, it’s important to express your feelings clearly to ensure that those around you don’t misinterpret your message. From the month of April, significant changes are on the horizon for Pigs natives. Whether it’s an unexpected breakup or a family conflict, you should anticipate some tense moments.

Towards the end of summer, your life will take a turn for the better, and the partner you’ve been waiting for will appear. A good friend may become your lover, or you may simply meet someone with whom you share a strong connection in every way. Your relationship will become serious and progress quickly, so prepare for an emotionally fulfilling year.

How to Prevent Your Hair Color from Fading

One of the main concerns of people who color their hair is how to prevent the color from fading. Fading can occur due to various factors, such as washing, heat styling, sun exposure, and environmental pollution. Here are some ways to prevent your hair color from fading and keep it looking vibrant and healthy.

Wash your hair less often and with cooler water

Washing your hair too frequently can wash away the color molecules and make your hair dull. Try to wash your hair every 2 to 3 days, or use a dry shampoo in between washes. When you do wash your hair, use lukewarm or cool water, as hot water can open up the cuticles and release the color.

Use color-safe shampoo and conditioner

Not all shampoos and conditioners are suitable for colored hair, as some may contain harsh ingredients that can strip the color and damage your hair. Look for products that are specifically designed for colored hair, as they will help preserve the color and moisturize your hair. Avoid products that contain sulfates, parabens, alcohol, or chlorine.

Apply a deep conditioning treatment once a week

Coloring your hair can make it dry and brittle, which can affect the color quality and shine. To restore your hair’s health and hydration, use a deep conditioning mask or oil once a week. Leave it on for at least 15 minutes, or overnight for better results. This will help repair your hair and lock in the color.

Protect your hair from heat and sun damage

Heat and sun can cause your hair color to fade faster, as they can break down the color molecules and bleach your hair. Before using any heat styling tool, such as a blow dryer, curling iron, or flat iron, spray your hair with a heat protectant product that will create a barrier between your hair and the heat. Also, limit the amount and temperature of heat styling, as too much heat can damage your hair. When going outside, wear a hat or a scarf to cover your hair, or use a leave-in conditioner with SPF to shield your hair from the sun’s rays.

Refresh your color regularly

Depending on the type and shade of your hair color, you may need to touch up your roots every 4 to 6 weeks, or get a gloss treatment every 2 to 3 months. A gloss treatment is a semi-permanent color that adds shine and tone to your hair, without changing the base color. It can help extend the life of your color and keep it looking fresh.

Visit a professional salon.

While you can color your hair at home, it is better to go to a professional stylist who can assess your hair condition and choose the best color and technique for you. A professional salon can also offer you services such as balayage, highlights, lowlights, or ombre, which can add dimension and interest to your hair color. A professional salon can also advise you on how to care for your hair color at home and recommend the best products for you.

The Jade Emperor wanted to select 12 animals to be his guards. He sent an immortal being into man’s world to spread the message that the earlier one went through the Heavenly Gate, the better the rank one would have.

The Rat got up very early. On his way to the gate, he encountered a river. He had to stop there, owing to the swift current. After waiting a long time, Rat noticed Ox about to cross the river and swiftly jumped into Ox’s ear.

How Can One Improve Your Luck According To The Chinese zodiac? 

The Chinese zodiac is not a fixed fate, but a dynamic guidance. One can improve one’s luck by following the principles of feng shui, which is the art of harmonizing with the natural environment.

The Chinese New Year is a significant festival celebrated in China and among Chinese communities worldwide.

February 10th marks the beginning of a new year according to the traditional lunar calendar, and is a time to honor ancestors, reunite with family, and welcome good fortune for the coming year.

One of the most common and popular greetings you will hear is “Xin Nian Kuai Le 2024“, which means “Happy New Year 2024” in Mandarin Chinese.

Another widely used greeting is “Gong Xi Fa Cai” (恭喜发财), which means “Congratulations and Prosperity” in Mandarin Chinese. In Cantonese Chinese, which is spoken in Hong Kong and southern China, the equivalent greeting is “Kung Hei Fat Choy” (恭喜发财).

This greeting expresses a sincere wish for happiness and prosperity in the new year, and it reflects the rich and diverse culture of China.

Understanding “Xin Nian Kuai Le”

The phrase “Xin Nian Kuai Le” consists of four characters: 新 (xin), 年 (nian), 快 (kuai), and 乐 (le). 

The first two characters mean “new” and “year” respectively, while the last two characters mean “happy” or “joyful”. 

Together, they form a simple but heartfelt expression of good wishes for the new year. However, there is more to this phrase than meets the eye. 

Each character has its history and significance, and they convey subtle nuances and connotations that are not easily captured by a literal translation.

The character 新 (xin) means “new”, but it also implies freshness, renewal, and innovation. It suggests that the new year is an opportunity to start anew, to embrace change, and to pursue new goals and dreams.

 The character 年 (nian) means “year”, but it also has a deeper meaning related to the origin of the Chinese New Year. According to legend, Nian was a ferocious beast that terrorized people every year on the eve of the new year. To ward off Nian, people would light firecrackers, hang red lanterns, and make loud noises. Eventually, Nian was scared away by a brave man wearing red clothes. Since then, people celebrate the new year by following these traditions to ensure peace and safety. The character 年 (nian) also represents a cycle of time, a harvest season, and a unit of age.

The character 快 (kuai) means “fast” or “quick”, but it also implies ease, smoothness, and efficiency. It suggests that the new year will be free of obstacles, difficulties, and delays. It also expresses a sense of urgency and enthusiasm for seizing the moment and making the most of the new year. 

The character 乐 (le) means “happy” or “joyful”, but it also implies music, harmony, and satisfaction. It suggests that the new year will be filled with joy and laughter, as well as peace and harmony among people. It also expresses a state of mind that is content and grateful for what one has.

How To Prononce Xin Nian Kuai Le

The pronunciation of “Xin Nian Kuai Le” is roughly [ɕin niɛn kʰwai lɤ] in Mandarin Chinese. However, there are variations in pronunciation depending on regional accents and dialects. 

For example, in Cantonese Chinese, which is spoken in Hong Kong and southern China, the phrase is pronounced as [san nin faai lok]. 

In Hokkien Chinese, which is spoken in Taiwan and southeast Asia, the phrase is pronounced as [sin ni khui lak]. Regardless of how you pronounce it, it is important to say it with a smile and a positive attitude.

Proper Usage Of the Gretting “Xin Nian Kuai Le”

The proper usage of “Xin Nian Kuai Le” depends on the context and the relationship between the speaker and the listener. Generally speaking, it is appropriate to use this greeting when you meet someone for the first time in the new year, or when you want to express your general good wishes for the new year. 

However, there are some situations where you may want to use a different greeting or add some modifiers to make it more specific or polite. For example:

– If you want to wish someone a happy new year in advance, you can add “zhu” (祝), which means “to wish”, before “Xin Nian Kuai Le”. For example: “Zhu Xin Nian Kuai Le” (祝新年快乐), which means “I wish you a happy new year”.

 If you want to wish someone a happy new year on behalf of your family or group, you can add “wo men” (我们), which means “we” or “us”, before “zhu”. For example: “Wo men zhu Xin Nian Kuai Le” (我们祝新年快乐), which means “We wish you a happy new year”.

If you want to wish someone a happy new year in a formal or respectful way, you can add “nin” (您), which means “you” in a polite form, after “zhu”. For example: “Zhu nin Xin Nian Kuai Le” (祝您新年快乐), which means “I wish you a happy new year” in a courteous manner.

 If you want to wish someone a happy new year in a casual or friendly way, you can add “ni” (你), which means “you” in an informal form, after “zhu”. For example: “Zhu ni Xin Nian Kuai Le” (祝你新年快乐), which means “I wish you a happy new year” in a relaxed tone.

The Lunar New Year, or Spring Festival, signals the beginning of a new cycle in the Chinese zodiac, from one animal to another. 2024 welcomes the Year of the Dragon, which begins on February 10.

In Chinese mythology, the Dragon is a symbol of strength, courage, creativity and innovation. 2024 is expected to be a year of potential and opportunity.

People born in the Year of the Dragon are said to be charismatic, ambitious, adventurous, and fearless. They are also confident, independent, and visionary.

How Do You Know If You’re a Dragon?

Unlike the solar calendar, which has fixed dates for each month, the lunar calendar has variable dates that depend on the phases of the moon.

This means that the beginning and end of each year in the Chinese zodiac may not coincide with the Gregorian calendar.

To determine if you were born under the sign of the Dragon, you need to match your birth date with the corresponding Dragon cycle periods.

For example, these are the exact dates for the last six Dragon years in the past:

  • 2012: January 23, 2012 – February 9, 2013
  • 2000: February 5, 2000 – January 23, 2001
  • 1988: February 17, 1988 – February 5, 1989
  • 1976: January 31, 1976 – February 17, 1977
  • 1964: February 13, 1964 – February 1, 1965
  • 1952: January 27, 1952 – February 13, 1953

If you were born in one of these periods, you are a Dragon.

The Five Elements Theory – What Can We Expect in 2024 During the Year of the Wood Dragon?

The Five Element Theory is a philosophy that describes the relationship and interdependence of all things in the universe. The five elements are wood, fire, earth, metal and water.

Each element has its own characteristics and can create or control the other in a cycle. The five elements are also associated with the 12 animal signs of the Chinese zodiac, depending on the year of birth.

Each animal sign has a fixed element and a variable element that changes every 12 years.

The Year of the Wood Dragon 2024 is also known as Yang Wood on Dragon, or Jia Chen 甲辰 in Chinese. The fixed element of the Dragon (Chen) is Earth (Wu 戊), which represents stability, honesty and loyalty.

The variable element of the Dragon in 2024 is Yang Wood, or Jia 甲, representing growth, creativity and flexibility.

Therefore, the Year of the Dragon in 2024 is expected to be a time of visionary leaders, innovators and problem solvers. 2024 is also predicted to be a great year to start new projects, explore new opportunities and create value for yourself and others.

In terms of industry trends, businesses in fintech, AI, cybersecurity, blockchain, and solar energy are projected to thrive. Companies that are quick to adopt new technologies and have strong marketing strategies are likely to thrive in 2024.

The next Year of the Wood Dragon in the Chinese zodiac will be 2084, which is 60 years from now.

The dragon was also believed to have nine sons, each with a different appearance and personality, and they were used as ornaments on various objects and buildings according to their nature.

Born in 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, or 2012? Congratulations! You’re likely a magnificent Dragon in the Chinese zodiac!

If so, you might be feeling excited about the upcoming Year of the Dragon 2024, which is your ben ming nian, or zodiac year. What is ben ming nian and why is it so important?

Ben ming nian means the same animal year as your birth year, and it occurs every 12 years. According to Chinese astrology, ben ming nian is a crucial turning point in your life cycle, and it can bring you either great fortune or great misfortune, depending on how you handle it.

One of the main challenges of ben ming nian is that you will face Tai Sui, the Grand Duke Jupiter, who is the ruler of the year and the guardian of the zodiac.

This article will teach you some survival hacks for your ben ming nian 2024. You will learn how to dodge bad luck, how to get good luck, and how to use feng shui to balance the bad luck in your ben ming nian.

How to Avoid Bad Luck in Your Ben Ming Nian

One of the best ways to ward off the bad luck in your ben ming nian is to wear something red. Red is a lucky color in Chinese culture, as it symbolizes happiness, prosperity, and vitality. It can also counteract the negative energy of your zodiac sign. You can wear red clothes, accessories, or underwear throughout the year, or especially on important occasions such as your birthday, Lunar New Year, or other festivals. 

However, there is a catch: the red items must be given to you by someone else, preferably by a close relative or friend. If you buy them yourself, they will not have the same effect.

Another way to avoid bad luck in your ben ming nian is to avoid offending the Tai Sui, or the Grand Duke Jupiter. 

The Tai Sui is a powerful deity who governs the fortune and destiny of people. He changes his position every year according to the lunar calendar, and in 2024, he will reside in the southeast direction. 

This means that you should avoid facing or disturbing this direction, as it may anger the Tai Sui and bring you misfortune. For example, you should avoid renovating, digging, or hammering in the southeast corner of your house or office. 

You should also avoid sitting or sleeping with your head pointing to the southeast direction. If you have to face or disturb this direction for some reason, you can wear a Tai Sui amulet or place a Tai Sui plaque in your house or office to appease him.

How to Attract Good Luck in Your Ben Ming Nian

Besides avoiding bad luck, you can also actively attract good luck in your ben ming nian by doing some positive things. One of them is to donate blood or money to charity.

It is believed that performing good deeds can help you accumulate good karma, and mitigate the negative effects of your ben ming nian. You may consider volunteering for noble causes or helping people in need. The more good deeds you do, the more blessings you are likely to receive.

Another way to attract good luck in your ben ming nian is to travel more often. Traveling can help you broaden your horizons, enrich your experiences, and meet new people. It can also help you escape from the stressful environment and refresh your mind and body. Moreover, traveling can activate your lucky stars and bring you unexpected opportunities and benefits.

 However, you should avoid traveling to the southeast direction, as it may conflict with the Tai Sui. You should also avoid traveling alone or during the ghost month (the seventh lunar month), as it may increase the risk of accidents or mishaps.

How to Use Feng Shui to Counteract the Bad Luck in Your Ben Ming Nian

Feng shui is a Chinese art and science of harmonizing the energy of the environment with the energy of the people. Feng shui can be used to enhance one’s luck, health, wealth, and happiness. 

Feng shui can also be used to counteract the negative effects of Ben Ming Nian. Here are some tips to help you:

Place a Feng Shui Pi Yao (Pi Xiu) statue in the southeast corner of your home or office. This mythical creature can calm Tai Sui and attract wealth and success for you. You can also put a Tai Sui plaque or talisman in the same corner to honor him and seek his blessing.

Stay away from hospitals, funerals, or places with negative energy. These can worsen your bad luck and cause health problems. You should also avoid disputes, arguments, or lawsuits. These can harm your reputation and relationships. Be more tolerant, flexible, and compassionate in your Ben Ming Nian.

Activate your lucky directions and elements based on your personal Kua number. This is a number that is calculated from your birth year and gender. You can find out your Kua number online or consult a Feng Shui expert. For example, if your Kua number is 3, your lucky directions are south, southeast, east, and north. Your lucky element is wood. You can activate these directions and elements by placing plants, green objects, wooden furniture, or water features in these areas.

Conclusion

To sum up, the Year of the Dragon in 2024 will be a special one for you if you were born in 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, or 2012. This is your ben ming nian, or zodiac year. 

It may bring some difficulties due to Tai Sui’s influence, but you can overcome them by following Feng Shui principles, wearing red accessories, and doing good deeds. 

This way, you can turn your ben ming nian into a year of progress and happiness. I wish you all the best on your journey!

Nostradamus is one of the most famous and controversial figures in the history of prophecy. His cryptic quatrains, written in the 16th century, have been interpreted and reinterpreted by countless scholars and enthusiasts, who claim that he predicted everything from the French Revolution to the 9/11 attacks. But what did Nostradamus really foresee for the year 2025? And how accurate were his previous predictions?

In this article, we will explore seven of the most intriguing and relevant prophecies that Nostradamus allegedly made for 2025, based on a careful analysis of his original texts and historical context. We will also examine some of his past prophecies that have been fulfilled or partially fulfilled, and how they relate to the current events and trends of our time.

nostradamus predictions 2025

Nostradamus claimed that his prophecies were inspired by God and that they covered events from his time until the end of the world, which he predicted would happen in 3797. Some of his most famous prophecies include the rise and fall of Napoleon, the French Revolution, the World Wars, the atomic bomb, the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the rise of Hitler, and the 9/11 attacks. However, his prophecies are so vague and ambiguous that they can be interpreted in many different ways, and many of them have been proven wrong or have not yet come true.

Nostradamus died in July 1566 in Salon-de-Provence, France. He left behind a legacy of mystery and controversy that still fascinates people today. Many believe that he was a genuine prophet who saw the future with remarkable accuracy, while others dismiss him as a charlatan who exploited the fears and hopes of his readers.

Here are 7 Predictions of Nostradamus for 2024, the Year of the Snake!

1. The Assassination of a World Leader

“The eagle falls, pierced by a hidden arrow,

A leader mourned as shadows cloak the throne.”

In this cryptic verse, Nostradamus hints at the demise of a prominent world leader, an event shrouded in secrecy and marked by mourning on a global scale. Interpretations vary, with some pointing to a high-profile political figure whose tragic end becomes a catalyst for geopolitical upheaval.

2. An Asteroid Will Hit The Moon

This cosmic event will have significant repercussions for Earth, with effects ranging from unusual tides to disturbances in our atmosphere.

3. The Unraveling of Diplomatic Alliances

“The great pact unravels, the lion and the bear turn away,

And the once united nations crumble in dissent.”

In a vision of geopolitical turmoil, Nostradamus alludes to the disintegration of longstanding diplomatic alliances. The “lion” and the “bear” are often interpreted as symbols of major nations, and their turning away signifies a breakdown in cooperation, leading to global instability and the erosion of international unity.

4. Ecological Catastrophe

“As the emerald forests weep and the azure seas mourn,

The balance of nature crumbles in the hands of heedless men.”

Nostradamus paints a vivid picture of environmental distress, where humanity’s disregard for nature results in ecological catastrophe. The prophecy suggests widespread devastation of forests and oceans, underscoring the urgent need for responsible stewardship of the planet.

5. Pandemic Resurgence

“The serpent’s tail stirs, unseen and venomous,

As a new affliction casts its shadow across the earth.”

In an eerie reflection of recent times, Nostradamus hints at the resurgence of a global health crisis. The serpent’s tail symbolizes the stealthy return of a virulent affliction, casting a shadow over nations and testing the resilience of healthcare systems worldwide.

6. Economic Meltdown

“As gold loses its luster and the market’s foundation crumbles,

The wheel of fortune spins into the abyss.”

Nostradamus forewarns of an economic downturn, where the traditional measures of wealth lose their value, leading to widespread financial turmoil. The prophecy suggests a cascading effect, impacting economies globally and challenging the very foundations of financial systems.

7. The Unveiling of Extraterrestrial Presence

“From the stars, visitors descend,

Revealing the cosmic kinship that transcends terrestrial bounds.”

Nostradamus’s quatrains hint at the prospect of extraterrestrial contact, where beings from distant realms make their presence known. This revelation, while unsettling for many, carries the promise of a broader cosmic understanding and challenges humanity to reconsider its place in the vast tapestry of the universe.

Conclusion

Nostradamus’s prophecies have fascinated and puzzled people for centuries. His cryptic quatrains seem to hint at events that may or may not happen in the future, depending on how one interprets them. Some of his predictions for 2025 are alarming, others are more optimistic. But how reliable are these predictions? And how should we react to them?

The truth is that Nostradamus was not a prophet, but a poet and an astrologer. He used symbolism, metaphors, and wordplay to create his verses, which were often influenced by his own time and culture. He did not claim to have a divine revelation, but rather a human intuition based on his observation of the stars and the history. He also admitted that his predictions were not certain, but subject to change and error.

As he wrote in his Preface to Cesar, his son: “I do not wish to attribute to myself any title of prophet, but rather of a man who is mortal, subject to error, and who, by long and diligent calculations, has made a guess at future and hidden events.”1

Therefore, we should not take his predictions literally or dogmatically, but rather as a source of inspiration and reflection. We should not let them scare us or paralyze us, but rather motivate us to act and create a better future. We should not forget that we have the power and the responsibility to shape our own destiny, and that the future is not written in stone, but in our hands.

As Nostradamus himself said: “The present time, together with the past, shall be judged by the great Joker in the future.

top 5 luckiest zodiac signs of 2024

Discover the Top 5 Luckiest Zodiac Signs of 2024

1. Monkey

Monkey ranks #1 in the luckiest zodiacs of 2024. It is as if the Universe’s gods look down and smile at the year you were born.

You possess a natural charisma that makes you shine and feel special. Everyone finds you utterly captivating, which is why you have many admirers. If you make a wish, it will surely come true, sooner or later, because the Dragon favors you.

You are the kind of person who can always find money on the sidewalk or win a prize worth a lifetime. Wherever you are, circumstances work to your benefit. However, you should understand that in the Year of the Snake 2025, you will not be as lucky as you are now, which is why it is good to cherish and appreciate what you have.

2. Rat

As a Rat, you are in a fortunate position in 2024. Your alignment with the Chinese stars is nearly the most favorable among all zodiac signs, securing you the 2nd position in our ranking.You seem to have a natural knack for success and perfection. Nothing can dampen your spirits.

People born in the Year of the Rat will enjoy many career opportunities in 2024. Some will switch to a different field of work. They will benefit from financial gains, various contracts and collaborations. Some of them will work in institutions that have connections with foreign countries. In terms of love, they will learn valuable lessons. They should be careful not to be too possessive or jealous, otherwise they might face some troubles.

3. Rooster

As a Chinese astrology expert, I can tell you that Roosters will enjoy harmony in their family life during 2024. They will easily pick up new ideas and it will be the perfect time for studies.

The Dragon’s influence will improve their communication and negotiation style. They are likely to meet people with whom they can establish important partnerships. From September onwards, success and achieving goals will have to do with family and real estate. Therefore, possible investments may arise.

During the same period, Cancer will also make some wise changes in their professional life. In love, the most romantic month for Cancer is May, while August will benefit them financially.

4. Snake

The Snake enjoys the strong support of the Chinese stars this year. It will be blessed with love, seriousness, deep reasoning, patience and tenacity, attributes that are especially valuable for taking solid long-term actions.

The connection with the Dragon enhances its progress, development and constant evolution. It also brings renewal, while preserving and promoting the positive achievements of the past, building new things on a valuable foundation. The next 12 months are full of career success, especially if the Snake opens its mind, uses its creativity and embraces change strategically and wisely. Significant income opportunities are on the way.

5. Dragon

The Dragon is the star of 2024, but it ranks only #5 in the list of the luckiest zodiac signs of 2024 because it will enter the year of its own sign, also known as Ben Ming Nian 本命年. This means that it will “offend” Tai Sui, the ruling god of the Chinese year system.

However, the Dragons will enjoy harmony in their family life during 2024. They are quick to absorb new ideas and it is the perfect time for them to pursue studies. Isis will help them improve their communication or negotiation skills. They may meet people with whom they can establish important partnerships.

From June onward, their success and goal achievement will be related to family and real estate. Therefore, they may have some opportunities for investments. During the same period, the Dragon will also make some wise changes in their professional life. In love, August is the most romantic month for the Dragon, while October will bring them financial benefits

Encountering Challenges: Zodiac Signs with Less Favor in 2024

The Year of the Dragon in 2024 will bring many auspicious opportunities, but not all zodiac signs will benefit from them equally. According to Chinese astrology, some signs may encounter obstacles or conflicts due to their mismatch with the Dragon’s energy. Here are two zodiac signs that may face a different situation than others:

1. Dog:

Dogs are not lacking in ambition and can enjoy life, but they are still among the few zodiac signs that have bad luck with money in 2024 because they will invest at the wrong times.

Dogs can have successful careers, well-paid jobs or creative jobs that give them both satisfaction and enough income. But they have no luck at all in increasing their wealth. If they make decisions on their own, they can make unwise investments and lose large amounts of money or opportunities.

That is why people born in the year of the Dog are advised to always seek the help of smarter and more experienced friends. Some Dogs only manage to achieve financial stability in the second half of the year.”

2. Ox:

As a diligent Ox, you have earned the best results of your efforts. This reflects your daily commitment to grow, but the Dragon seems to be against you in 2024. Whenever you are close to fortune, something happens and disrupts your Feng Shui. You have a destiny of misfortune, but this should not frighten you, but rather empower you.

Conclusion

2024 brings extraordinary opportunities for those who are born in the Monkey, Rat, Rooster, Snake, and Dragon years. Each sign has unique advantages, influenced by the year’s auspicious energy.

The Monkey dazzles with charisma, the Rat thrives in career and finance. Roosters enjoy family harmony, Snakes achieve career success, and Dragons will welcome positive changes. However, Dogs may face challenges in financial decisions and Oxs may encounter disruptions.

May everyone navigate the Dragon’s energy, seize opportunities, and have a prosperous Dragon Year in 2024!

13 Premonitions that Will Cause Chaos in the world in the Future

The clairvoyant Baba Vanga, has made some bold predictions that have taken the world by storm. According to her, there are 13 premonitions that will cause chaos in the world, and here are some more details on each one of them.

Europe will supposedly be deserted in 2025, which is a worrying prediction. It is unclear what could cause such a mass exodus, but it is possible that some catastrophic event could trigger it.

The good news is that by 2028, a new energy source will be developed that will eliminate world hunger. This is a much-needed breakthrough that could significantly improve the lives of millions of people around the world.

Cloning will reportedly be widely available by 2046, which raises many ethical questions and concerns. It is unclear how society will handle this development and what the long-term consequences could be.

According to the Bulgarian woman, communism will once again rule the world in 2076. This is a surprising prediction given the decline of communism in recent years, but it is possible that some unforeseen event could trigger its resurgence.

The rebirth of nature is expected to take place in 2084, which is a positive prediction. It is unclear what this rebirth will entail, but it could mean a significant restoration of the planet’s natural resources.

However, a new disease is predicted to strike the planet in 2088, which is a cause for concern. The disease will reportedly cause humans to grow old in seconds, which is a terrifying prospect. But, according to the woman, the disease will be cured in 2097.

In 2100, a man-made sun will be developed that will light up the dark side of the planet. This is a remarkable achievement that could significantly improve our understanding of the universe and our ability to explore it.

By 2111, humans will reportedly become robots, which raises many ethical and philosophical questions. It is unclear how this transformation will take place and what the long-term implications could be.

Hungary is expected to receive signals from outer space in 2125, which is an exciting prediction. It is possible that these signals could be from extraterrestrial life forms, which would be a groundbreaking discovery.

In 2154, animals are predicted to become half-human, which is a terrifying thought. It is unclear how this transformation will take place and what the implications could be for the animal kingdom and society as a whole.

Finally, in 2167, a new religion is expected to emerge. This is a prediction that is difficult to interpret, as it is unclear what form this religion will take and what its beliefs and practices will be. Nonetheless, it is an intriguing prediction that will surely spark discussion and debate.

The year of the Wood Dragon is coming, and it’s going to be a wild ride for some of the Chinese zodiac signs. While some animals will enjoy good fortune and luck, others will have to face obstacles and challenges that will test their patience and resilience.

Do you want to know if you are one of the unlucky ones, and how you can turn your luck around? In this article, we will reveal the five animal signs that are most likely to have a tough time in 2024, and give you some advice on how to cope with them.

These zodiac signs might face bad luck in the Year of the Wooden Dragon:

1. Dog

If you are a Dog, you might want to brace yourself for 2024. According to Chinese astrology, the year of the Dragon is not very favorable for you. Why is that? Well, the Dragon and the Dog are considered to be incompatible signs, as they have very different personalities and values.

The Dragon is adventurous and daring, while the Dog is loyal and cautious. The Dragon is charismatic and dominant, while the Dog is humble and cooperative. The Dragon is optimistic and confident, while the Dog is realistic and vigilant. These differences can cause clashes and misunderstandings between them, making it hard for them to get along.

As a result, you may encounter some obstacles and difficulties in your career, relationships, health, and finances in 2024. But don’t worry, you can still make the most of this year if you are careful and diligent. Here are some tips on how to survive and thrive in 2024 as a Dog.

2. Dragon

If you are born in the year of the Dragon, you might be wondering what the upcoming year has in store for you. Well, the answer is not so simple. You see, 2024 is the year of the Dragon, which means it is also your Ben Ming Nian 本命年, or your zodiac year. This sounds like a good thing, right? After all, who wouldn’t want to share their year with such a powerful and majestic creature? But in Chinese culture, Ben Ming Nian is not a cause for celebration, but rather a source of potential trouble. Why is that? Let me explain.

According to Chinese astrology, each year is governed by a deity called Tai Sui 太岁, who oversees the fate and fortune of all living beings. Tai Sui changes every year, and he is very sensitive and easily offended by those who share his zodiac sign. So, if you are a Dragon person, you are “offending” Tai Sui in 2024, and this can bring you bad luck, misfortune and accidents. You might face conflicts with your family, friends or colleagues, health issues, financial losses or career setbacks. To avoid these troubles, you need to take some precautions and remedies.

One of the most common and effective ways to appease Tai Sui is to wear red clothes or accessories, such as a scarf, a hat, a belt or a bracelet. Red is a lucky color in Chinese culture, and it can ward off evil spirits and negative energy. You can also carry a jade pendant or amulet with your zodiac sign, which can protect you from harm and attract good luck.

Besides the Dragon, 3 more animal signs below may also face potential conflicts with Tai Sui:

3. Ox

The Year of the Dragon 2024 is a challenging year for those born in the year of the Ox. It is a year of transformation, a year of breaking old patterns and creating new ones.

You will face many obstacles and difficulties, especially if you were born in 1973. You will have to deal with the influence of Tai Sui, the Grand Duke Jupiter, who opposes your sign this year. This means you will encounter conflicts, setbacks, and stagnation in your endeavors. You will need to be patient, flexible, and adaptable to overcome these challenges.

However, this is also a great opportunity for you to grow and evolve. You will have to examine yourself deeply and honestly, and see what aspects of your personality, behavior, and communication need improvement. You will have to let go of your ego and your need for attention, and focus on your inner self and your true purpose. You will have to release all the negative energy and influences that are holding you back, and embrace positive changes that will benefit you in the long run.

This is not an easy process, but it is a necessary one. You are preparing yourself for a better future, a future that will bring you happiness and prosperity in the Year of the Snake 2025. Trust in the wisdom of the universe, and follow the guidance of feng shui to harmonize your environment and your energy. Remember that every challenge is an opportunity for growth, and every change is a chance for renewal.

4. Goat

Dear Goats, 2024 is a year that requires you to be understanding and tolerant of others. You may encounter many people who make you uncomfortable or irritate you. They may be nervous, fake, or aggressive, and they may try to hinder your progress. You may feel like reacting impulsively when things don’t go your way, but this will only backfire on you.

In this Year of the Wood Dragon, you must learn to be rational and calm in every situation. You may feel like the whole universe is against you, but this is not true. Give more patience and attention to those around you, for you are not the only one facing difficulties.

If you can realize that the world doesn’t revolve around you, you will be able to overcome all the challenges that 2024 has in store for you!

5. Tiger

If you are born in the Year of the Tiger, you need to prepare yourself for the challenges that await you in the second half of 2024! The clash with Tai Sui will bring a lot of trouble and obstacles to your career and projects. You will find that some people you didn’t expect will act in ways that are meant to undermine you.

As you have noticed, your intuition is a great asset when things get tough. Try to stay more grounded, live in the present as much as possible this year. The past and the future are not helpful to you. Trust your inner strength more. Don’t make risky financial investments, but follow one of the main traits of the fellow Rabbit: caution. Don’t trust anyone until they show you that they have no ill intentions and postpone your future plans.

Conclusion

As a feng shui master, I shared with you my insights on the Year of the Wood Dragon in 2024, which affects each Chinese zodiac sign differently.

Dogs should be careful and cautious, as they have a clash with the Dragon, the ruler of the year. Dragons should also be vigilant, as they may face some obstacles in their own zodiac year. Oxen have a year of change and transformation, which requires them to be patient and self-reflective.

Goats should cultivate a more tolerant and compassionate attitude, as they may encounter some conflicts or misunderstandings. Tigers have to be strong and resilient, as they may face some challenges or setbacks. However, I also want to remind you that each sign has the potential to grow and improve themselves by overcoming the difficulties. The Year of the Wood Dragon is a year of renewal and rebirth, which offers you the chance to start afresh and pursue your goals.
