Happy New Year to All
To all my Stemians Friends and brothers. Kung Hei Fat Choi! I hope yo have all a good health and prosperous for the whole year.
This year is the year of the dog what does mean to us?
We all know that dogs, as our best animal friends, are loyal, friendly, and kind. People born under the sign of the dog are said to share those traits. They are honest, easygoing, and helpful to others. They are less likely to seek money and power and are more likely to try and make the world a better place. On the other hand, they may be critical, stubborn, and cold at times. Dogs can have difficulty communicating and may fall into pessimism when they feel doubt, but if they can live a good, quiet life, they will have a positive outlook. These personality traits also vary based on the lunar month of the year in which dogs are born, too.
Some fellow Earth Dogs include Madonna and Michael Jackson. Other people born under the sign of the dog in non-earth element years include Steven Spielberg, Justin Bieber, Winston Churchill, Elvis Presley, Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, and Mother Teresa among others. Dogs’ lucky numbers are 3, 4, and 9, and unlucky numbers are 1, 6, and 7. Lucky colors are red, green, and purple, while blue, white, and gold are unlucky. Dogs are said to be romantically compatible with people born under the sign of the rabbit, but not with those born under the dragon, goat, or rooster.
Not only does the year play a part in the destiny of a person born with the dog as their sign, but the time and date are also factors. Those born between 9 AM and 1 PM, as well as those born between 3 PM and 5 PM are said to be the most likely to achieve success. Those born on the 1st, 6th, 7th, 17th, 21st, 24th, 26th, 28th or the 30th day of the month in the Chinese lunar calendar are said to be the luckiest.
LUCKY FOOD
To be prosperous this year you have to prepare Tikoy as a gift and eaten during Chinese New Year celebrations because in Chinese folk religion/mythology, it is believed that the Kitchen God makes his annual trip to heaven just before the first day of the new year to give his report to the Jade Emperor, emperor of the heavens, on the activities of every household for the past year.
Offerings of tikoy to the Kitchen God makes his mouth sticky so that he won’t be able to report negative things about the family that offered him tikoy. Another reason is why this sticky sweet snack is commonly eaten during the Chinese New Year celebrations is because in the Mandarin pronunciation of tikoy, nian gao (nian-sticky; gao-cake), if pronounced with a different intonation, sounds like the Mandarin words for “higher year” (nian-year; gao-higher).
Tikoy is therefore considered a symbol of a “higher year” to come.
