What is the Lunar New Year?

Taking place in January or February of each year, the Lunar New Year is a 15-day celebration designated by the lunar calendar. It starts with the New moon on the first day of the first lunar month and ends on the Full moon 15 days later on what is called the Lantern Festival. Commonly referred to as the Spring Festival, citizens in China and Chinese communities around the globe gather to usher out the old and ring in the new year. The most important of all Chinese holidays, the Lunar New Year is a time steeped in tradition and marked with family, food, festivities and fireworks.

The Lunar New Year and the Significance of Red and Gold

From clothing to décor, the Lunar New Year is decked out in red. Believed to have the power to scare away evil spirits, red is a significant symbol of good fortune for the Lunar New Year. A long-held tradition, older adults will give red envelopes of money as a Lunar New Year gift to unwed young adults and children to wish them good luck and good health. A sign of prosperity, the red envelopes can also be given as Lunar New Year gifts to employees as well as between co-workers and friends. Complementing red's importance in the traditions of the Lunar New Year, gold is another key color that signifies prosperity and wealth in the holiday's festivities.
