There are many different traditions of celebrating New Year in different countries, yet the fervor and the intensity remains almost same all over. While some countries like United States of America and France hold parades in order to eulogize the occasion. While Chinese and Spanish people like to have a family dinner and then going out for celebrations, natives of Brazil enjoy New Year jubilations at street with colorful props. Making loud noises, having festive food and singing and dancing on jolly tunes is certainly the highlight of the day in any country across the world. Chinese New Year, which is also known as spring festival is one of the most important traditional holidays. This festival starts on the first day of the first months of the Lunar month in the Chinese calendar and end on the fifteenth day. The last day of the festival is also called "Lantern festival".
The Chinese calendar is based on a combination of lunar and solar movements. The lunar cycle is about 29.5 days. In order to "catch up" with the solar calendar the Chinese insert an extra month once every few years (seven years out of a 19-year cycle) much like we add an extra day on leap year. Because of this, the Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year.
The Chinese lunar calendar is structured to represent the 12 different animals and represents the cyclical nature of time, synchronizing with the moons natural cycles as opposed to the Western Linear concept of time. Although the Chinese make use of the Western calendar, the lunar calendar is still used for festive occasions and is used extensively as part of Chinese Astrological formats and calculations. The New Years celebration ushers in the New Year and is a time of celebration to welcome the new zodiac year. For the Chinese culture, compatibility, matchmaking and luck cycles are heavily linked to a person's astrological animal symbol. An Australian lunar gold coin is an ideal Chinese New Year gift for anyone born in the relevant animal year or as a special token to bring wealth, health and happiness.
The Chinese New Year is being celebrated by pasting New Year pictures. The main objective of pasting these is to please children ands also to promote the traditional Chinese values of hard work and integrity. This way, the children from a very young age gets to learn about their cultures and also their duties. Such pictures are based on various themes, subjects and ideas. There is no particular place for making those crafts. All over the country is engaged in this profession and is being practiced from the ancient times.
Chinese New Year is not just a festival of fun and part, but also a time to welcome the new season, pray for prosperity and well being and cleanse away the any thing evil.
