Here are some more information for Jade Chinese:
Chinese have many traditions in their culture, and especially during the New Year days. Whether you are visiting China for pleasure or business, it is important to know. This article will take you through the week before Chinese New Year. Understand all the superstitions and taboos during those days.
- A week before New Year, the Chinese people have a custom of bribing the Kitchen God with sweet foods before he goes back to heaven. People believe the Kitchen God goes back to heaven every year to give a report about the family deeds to the Jade Emperor.
- In Chinese New Year customs, the people cannot sweep or clean the house on New Year's Day, so they use the week before to do so. When sweeping, you will only sweep inward and not out the front door (because you do not want luck to go out the front door). After you finish sweeping, you can take the trash out through the back door.
- Chinese New Year is a happy time not only for the living. Each household will use this time to clean its family tombstones and altars.
- Before New Year, you need to be free of debt. Also, nothing should be lent or borrowed at this time. If you are a lender, you should not ask people to pay back the money on New Year, but wait until the New Year is over.
- Red is the main color for decoration. This color is meant to bring luck as well as good fortune.
- To drive away evil spirits, there will be a line of poetry (calligraphy) written on a red paper and taped to each side of the door or gate. Red lanterns will also be hung for the same reason. People will write the word "spring" upside down on the calligraphy. They believe that doing so will help the luck stay inside the house.
- On each wall, there will be pictures of children playing and of the God of Fortune. The children in these drawings will be fat. In China's culture, fat means healthy and lucky.
