Year of the Tiger - Lunar New Year 2010!

February 14, 2010 is not only the Valentine's Day, it is also starting Chinese New Year in lunar calendar. This is the year of TIGER! The Tiger is the third sign in the Chinese Zodiac cycle, and it is a sign of bravery. This courageous and fiery fighter is admired by the ancient Chinese as the sign that keeps away the three main tragedies of a household. These are fire, thieves and ghosts.

Anyone that is born in the Year of the Tiger is good nature and outgoing. They have extreme amount of patience, they are smart and instinctive.  People that are born in the Year of the Tiger are well liked by others with many friends.

Tonight is the New Year's Eve The celebration actually starts on New Year's Eve with the reunion dinner. If you celebrate Lunar New Year, by tonight you should have done the following:

  • Clean the entire home to get rid of all the things that are associated with the old year.
  • Put away all brooms and brushes.
  • Pay all your debts.
  • Resolve differences with family members, friends, neighbors and business associates.
  • Buy the following: red money envelopes, oranges and/or tangerines, circular candy tray, flowers (especially plum blossom, peach blossom, water lily), a new set of clothes and shoes for children, preferably something red or orange.
  • Get new dollar bills from the bank. Insert the new dollar bills into the red envelopes. Now the red envelope is called a lee see or lucky money envelope. (note: Very few modern families follow all the "cleaning" traditions.)

We are both English and Chinese Speaking Real Estate agents under one of the most successful Manhattan Brokerage firm Prudential Douglas Elliman with extensive market knowledge. In addition, we specialize in connecting the local Manhattan sellers with both local and international buyers with our preferred buyer networks. Call us today at (212)321-7122 or (917)837-8869.

I have always found the backgrounds behind the symbols of the Chinese New Year to be very fascintating. Thank you so much for the post.

Best regards.
