The year 2024 will be unusual, one might even say fabulous, because its symbol is the Dragon – a mythical creature symbolizing mystery and the forces of nature.
Let's discuss what is best to give this New Year, how to properly greet the successor of the Rabbit.
Let us remember that the Dragon will assume its powers only on February 10th, according to the eastern calendar.
Lucky or unlucky
The Chinese calendar states that the Year of the Dragon is a favorable time for absolutely everyone. It relates well to all twelve signs of the zodiac.
The patronage of the Dragon extends to those who:
- believes in his own strength;
- sets goals for the year;
- does not confuse confidence with impudence.
Don't forget about the ferocity of the fairy-tale animal. Trouble awaits slackers and conceited people. Try to achieve everything on your own and believe in yourself.
Another advantage of the Dragon is the ability to work miracles. Dream boldly, remember what has not worked out for a long time or has been postponed for the future. In 2024, it is time to act.
In 2024, success awaits: Rooster, Rat, Monkey. Obstacles may arise in career and personal relationships: Ox, Dog, Snake.
Those born in the year of the Dragon should not relax. The year will be full of both positive events and failures.
Feast and gifts
In Chinese culture, the Year of the Dragon is celebrated with dishes that symbolize health. It is necessary to show kindness to others and be considerate.
A great idea would be to make cookies or other desserts with a coin in them. The person who gets the lucky find will have good luck all year long.
The dragon loves sweets. The Chinese always prepare sweet rice cake "nian gao". It is brought as a gift to friends and relatives.
The best and simplest gift that is traditionally given in China in the Year of the Dragon is a red envelope with money. The red color will bring good luck in finances. Food is also given, mainly sweet dishes. You can give fruits, they are healthy, but not pears, as they represent separation.
The Dragon loves brightness. For the New Year, choose red to attract happiness and gold shades for wealth. But the Dragon does not like blue. Green is also a priority.
Celebrate 2024 in style. Decorate the festive table in an unusual way. Invite only the closest people. The Dragon patronizes the family. Be bright and confident. Make wishes boldly, work hard, and luck will not pass you by. The Dragon will bring many surprises.
