過年的”吉祥”習俗
Traditions to build wealth Jessica Mai
Clean before Chinese New Year to get rid of bad spirits.
As much as Chinese people believe in good luck, we also believe that there are bad spirits keeping us from it.
About a week before Chinese New Year, there is a lot of dusting, sweeping, and mopping going on in my home. Houses are cleaned to their entirety to sweep away bad luck and "inauspicious breaths,"
Any cleaning after the eve of Chinese New Year is considered bad, because you're potentially sweeping away any fortune coming your way.
Red is our lucky color.
This color is traditionally believed to bring wealth by warding off the spirits of bad fortune.
It doesn't matter what it is you're buying — if it comes in red, get it!
We emphasize the number 8, and avoid the number 4.
Numbers are not just numbers, especially during Chinese New Year. Even numbers are preferred because of their belief of balance and harmony. But the two numbers you have to remember for your wealth are eight and four.
The number eight in Cantonese is "bot" and is supposed to sound like "fot", which means rich. So, if you believe in the superstition, this number is supposed to bring you wealth.
We don't shower on the holiday.
One of the oddest superstitions I have followed is not showering, and especially not washing my hair on Chinese New Year. This superstition can be compared to the idiom, "getting yourself into hot water," or a bad situation.
Instead, the night before the holiday, we bathe in tea and pomelo leaves to wash away the bad luck and bring good fortune.
We exchange red envelopes.
These red envelopes are a major part of Chinese New Year, and are handed out throughout the two weeks. We go from relative to relative to bai lien, which means greeting the new year together, and exchange these envelopes. Exchanging red envelopes means giving blessings of wealth and good fortune to each other.
We plan our meals carefully.
Food is a major part of Chinese New Year, and eating certain meals is supposed to bring you wealth and prosperity.
For dinner, however, we prepare a feast: fish, chicken, long noodles, dumplings — the list goes on! Each food has its own superstition: Fish is supposed to bring a "surplus" of wealth; dumplings eaten during the celebrations are supposed to bring you more money; pomelos and tangerines symbolize fullness, wealth, and good fortune.
