Happy Chinese New Year - Year of the OX
Happy Chinese New Year or Kung Hei Fat Choy to everyone and to our Chinese friends.
What I remember when I was a kid, there were Chinese people who gives gifts, Chinese food like the Tikoy ( Tikoy is the most popular treat during Lunar New Year festivities in the Philippines ) to my grandmother. I also remember receiving ampaw ( money ).
Chinese New year starts at the first day of the Lunar Calendar. And what’s good about year of the Ox? According to some Feng Shui expert, this years color is Purple which gives fire energy and this energy will be very intense and could bring disasters,war or racial conflicts. Some even say it will be a prosperous year. Some say that this year will be good for those who’s looking for love and wants to get married.
Though they say this year will not be a good year for those who are born on the year of the sheep like me, I still believe that we are the one who brings good or bad luck to ourselves.
Again, Happy Chinese New Year to all of you!
