GongXi GongXi. We started our Chinese New Year with "What to bring when we go visiting during Chinese New Year?" Banana, Pineapple or Mandarin orange?
A traditional gift during Chinese New Year is the exchanging of a pair of mandarin oranges and the giving of a red packet containing an even amount of money.
This year, we have invited our very own Lion Dance troupe to perform the lion dance. In Chinese culture, the lion symbolizes power, wisdom, and superiority. People perform lion dances at Chinese festivals or big occasions to bring good fortune and chase away evil spirits. The lion dance is one of the most important traditions of the Chinese New Year.
A blessing ceremony is held before a new lion’s first dance as we have a few new lions. The purpose of the ritual is to empower the lion to fulfil its duty of bringing about protection, good luck, health, and prosperity to those present. In Chinese culture, the eyes reflect the spirit and thus, the last step before the lion comes alive is for its eyes to be dotted.
The drum and cymbals sound started, here comes our very own Kizroo Lion Dance Performers!
The Lions perform the traditional custom of "cai qing" (採青),
literally meaning "plucking the greens", whereby the lion plucks the auspicious green lettuce hung on a pole
