DTubeSnapX #25 | Gong Xi Fatt Chai Day One

in dtube •  6 years ago 


Gong Xi Gong Xi ! Xin Nian Kuai Le ! Wan Xi Ru Yi !

That's how we greet and wish each other on this very day. Red is the prosperity color which brings luck in both health, wealth and longevity. As to why we must have red in all our decorations to welcome the New Lunar year. This is is the year of the Pig or most people prefer to call it the year of the Boar; one of the twelve animal zodiac in the chinese lunar calendar.

This is us welcoming the year of the Boar as a family.....


According to one myth, the Jade Emperor said the order would be decided by the order in which they arrived to his party. Pig was late because he overslept. Another story says that a wolf destroyed his house. He had to rebuild his home before he could set off. When he arrived, he was the last one and could only take twelfth place.

The Pig is also associated with the Earthly Branch (地支—dì zhī) hài (亥), and the hours 9–11 in the night. In terms of yin and yang (阴阳—yīn yáng), the Pig is yin. In Chinese culture, pigs are the symbol of wealth.

Their chubby faces and big ears are signs of fortune as well.

Gong Xi Fa Cai from my family to you and entire family. It had been awhile I didn't see firecracker so close in front of my eyes and I get to view it from your video. :)

By the way, Nathan had taken away all the DtubeSnap or whatever Snap or Snap comment.

Happy Chinese New Year. May the boar year brings us bull market year. For Steem. 😊

Thanks for the heads up. There's so many updates and changes happening that sometimes it's hard to catch up. I see you everywhere and you're really on the ball even with the chores at home. Heads off to you!!

I do what I can and when I can. Not very efficient though and productive as I want to be. Thank goodness I have steemit friends like yourself to keep reminding me 😊

Gong Xi Fatt Chai to u and family too
