The Lunar New Year
begins on the first new moon of the new year. For many Asian
families in the Far East and around the world, the Lunar New
Year is a celebration of change.
In 2002, the Lunar New
Year will start on February 12. According to the Asian Zodiac, 2002 is
the Year of the Horse. In China,
the Lunar New Year is also called the Spring
Festival. For the Vietnamese, Tet is the New
Year. The Koreans celebrate Solnal and
Losar is the Tibetan New Year.
Asian
astrologists believe that everything and everyone is interconnected
through energy flows. All of us are influenced by the interactions of the
divine forces at the time of our birth. By analyzing the cosmic interactions at the time
of our birth, fortune tellers can forecast events years in advance.
So what will the Year of
the Horse bring?
According to Chinese
astrologist Shelly
Wu, many of us will find ourselves at the crossroad and the Year of
the Horse will be a changing point for many.
The Lunar New Year is a celebration of change. The New Year rings in all of the good and ends all of the bad. It
is a time to renew ourselves. More importantly, the Lunar New Year brings us hope.
What are you hoping for in this New Year? Whatever it is, we hope that you
will find it in the Year of the Horse.
Best Wishes for a Happy,
Healthy & Prosperous New Year!
