Chinese New Year: Wisdom of the Water Tiger

The new Chinese Year, known as the “Lunar New Year” or “Spring Festival”, is the most significant celebration in China. It is defined as the first day of the first month in the traditional Chinese calendar. Unlike the Western calendar, which is based on a solar calendar, the Chinese Eastern calendar is based on a lunisolar calendar, that is, the date indicates both the phase of the moon and the time of the solar year.

The Chinese lunar calendar dates from 2,637 B.C. C being the longest chronological record of history. A cycle of this calendar lasts 60 years and is made up of five simple cycles of 12 years each. Cycle 78 began in February 1984 and will end in February 2044.

Twelve animals were assigned to each of the 12 years, so legend has it, Buddha summoned all the animals in front of him before he left Earth; and only twelve animals showed up. As a reward, he named a year with the name of each one in the order in which they arrived. First there was the Rat, then the Ox, the Tiger, the Rabbit, the Dragon, the Snake, the Horse, the Goat, the Monkey, the Rooster, the Dog and the Pig. Thus, we have the twelve animal signs of the Chinese zodiac. The animal that rules the year you were born has a profound influence on your life.

The Chinese New Year is celebrated on February 1, 2022. The festivities last 15 days until the Full Moon. The preparations begin before the celebration, since the house, office and common places must first be completely cleaned. It is also remembered and prayed for the ancestors in order to be on the "good side", and improve the chances of good fortune in the coming year, among many other traditions, although the most important thing about this festivity is the time for the meeting familiar.

This year of the Tiger will be with the element of water and is associated with the source of life. It is an extraordinary element, necessary for the survival of the human body, and one of the most powerful resources in Feng Shui for healing.

The water element in Feng Shui is related to the color dark blue and black, as well as wavy shapes, it is represented by a wave. In its positive aspect, it is an element in permanent movement, associated with intelligence, since it always finds a way to overcome obstacles.

In its negative aspect, it is usually associated with fear and fears, especially in large bodies of water.

Although this celebration comes from oriental culture, energy is presented and manifested throughout the planet and it is here that Feng Shui invites us to "TAKE" to add harmony and balance to our quality of life.
