As we usher out the Dragon, we begin to welcome in the auspicious Year of the Snake, known for its charm, wisdom, and grace.
The Snake holds the sixth position in the Chinese zodiac, following the Dragon and preceding the Horse. People born under the Snake sign are considered intelligent, intuitive, and capable of handling life’s challenges with grace. They are also known for their strategic thinking and elegance, and are often seen as wise, mysterious, and persuasive.
The Lunar New Year, also known as the Spring Festival, is the most important festival on the Lunar calendar and one of the most widely celebrated festivals in the world. It’s a time that brings families back together as they celebrate the joyous occasion and wish health and prosperity to one another as they remove the ‘bad and old’ and welcome the ‘new and the good’.
