Happy Chinese New Year 2012!!!

The Kitchen God

There are many Chinese legends and stories told on New Years. The Kitchen God is honored each New Year when families give him food to keep his mouth too full to speak ill of them. Common traditions include giving the Kitchen God sweet cakes, or by hanging a poster that the family can rub a small amount of honey on during the first morning of the New Year. There are many Chinese legends and stories, but these are passed down from generation to generation each year.

Chinese New Year and Astrology

Of all the Chinese legends and stories that are heard around the world, perhaps one of the most popular is that of the Chinese animals that journeyed to the Jade Emperor. Each Chinese New Year is also identified by an animal. For example, the year 2011 is the Year of the Rabbit. Legend says that the Jade Emperor invited all the animals to come to see him. Of all the animals invited, only the Rabbit, Snake, Horse, Dragon, Ox, Boar, Tiger, Rat, Ram, Monkey, Dog, and Rooster arrived at the palace. In honor of their arrival, the Emperor named a year after each of these animals whose characteristics are thought to be shared by other born in that year.

Other Chinese legends and stories say that Buddha was the person inventing the animals to him to reorganize China. Each of the animals that obeyed were given a year to be named after them, and their characteristics would influence events and people born throughout the year. The animals are also connected to the elements, as well. Earth, Water, Air, and Fire are all used to determine which of the animal’s characteristics will be most evident through the year. These Chinese legends and stories may be a little different from each other, but many people around the world still follow Chinese astrology carefully.

Happy Chinese New Year 2012!!!

Chinese legends and stories about the New Year traditions have been told for many centuries. Stories often are slightly different depending on the region that you are in, and the personal beliefs of the person telling the legend of the New Year.

There are three basic stories about how the Lantern Festival came to be, some older than the Han Dynasty.

The Legend of Nian

chinese legendsChinese legends and stories often include the beast Nian, a monster that preys on children, livestock, and crops. In some stories, Nian rises from the bottom of the sea to destroy life and property.

In Chinese legends, a village is preparing to go into the mountains to escape the wrath of Nian. As they were leaving, a beggar approached one of the villagers for help. Unable to resist fleeing, the woman left the beggar alone in the village. Upon their return, the villagers found the beggar had sent Nian back to the sea by hanging red paper decorations on the door, wearing red clothing, and setting off fireworks. This legend explains many of the Chinese traditions related to New Year, even in 2011.

The Dragon and Wealth

Dragon years are lucky for anyone thinking of starting a business or initiating a new project of any sort because money is easier to come by for everyone, whether it’s earned, borrowed or received as a gift. Consequently we can expect the economic downturn to ease up a bit in the coming year. Fortunes can be made but they can also be lost: Keep in mind like all good things, the Year of the Dragon will come to an end and you will be held accountable for unreasonable extravagances.

Dragons do well in professions that give them the ability to function somewhat autonomously. They make excellent sales people, publicists, political campaigners, lawyers, real estate brokers, actors and politicians.

The Dragon and Love

Dragons are passionate. They fall in love quickly – and out of love just as quickly. Their charisma and charm is an immense draw to people of the opposite s*x whose attention and admiration they crave. Though they have a tendency to treat love like a game, they can settle down when they meet the right partner, someone who’s strong enough not to be bowled over by the Dragon’s flamboyant, independent and stubborn personality.

The Dragon’s ideal partners are the Rat, the Monkey, and the Rooster: The Rat is practical, observant and resourceful, able to help the Dragon when extravagant promises have backed the Dragon into a corner. The Monkey is just as popular as the Dragon, curious, intellectual and fun-loving, one of the few personalities the Dragon doesn’t mind sharing the spotlight with. The Rooster can give the Dragon a run for the money on the fashion-forward front; attractive, well-groomed, fiercely loyal and committed to honesty, the Rooster serves as the Dragon’s reality check, keeping the Dragon from making promises that he or she can’t keep.

The Dragon’s Personality

People born under the Dragon are passionate, brave and self-assured. At their best they are pioneering spirits; at their worst, they epitomize the old adage: Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. Dragons are generous with their resources, a tendency that at its most negative can reflect a foolhardy attitude towards money. But Dragons in general are blessed with good fortune. They are smart, enterprising and have a wicked sense of humor. They have a natural flair for fashion and are the people to consult if you want to catch up on the latest trends.

This Chinese New Year 2012 ushers in the Water Dragon. Water exerts a calming influence on the Dragon’s innate fire. Water Dragons are more open to other people’s opinions than other Dragons which gives them the ability to channel their personal charisma into real leadership qualities.

Famous celebrities born in under the Dragon include John Lennon, Ringo Starr, Al Pacino, Marlene Dietrich and Matt Dillon. The Dragon’s lucky color is yellow.

Year of the Dragon

In Chinese tradition, each year is dedicated to a specific animal. The Dragon, Horse, Monkey, Rat, Boar, Rabbit, Dog, Rooster, Ox, Tiger, Snake, and Ram are the twelve animals that are part of this tradition. In 2012, the Dragon is welcomed back after the 2011 year of the Rabbit. Each of these animals are thought to bestow their characteristics to the people born in their year.

While the Year of the Rabbit was characterized by calm and tranquility, the Year of the Dragon will be marked by excitement, unpredictability, exhilaration and intensity. The Rabbit imbues people with a sense of cautious optimism, but people respond to the spirit of the Dragon with energy, vitality and unbridled enthusiasm, often throwing all caution to the wind – which can be an unwise move: The Dragon is all about drama but if you take unnecessary risks, you may find yourself starring in your own personal tragedy.
