Which animal represents it? What does it mean? Here we answer all your questions.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival, is the most important celebration in China. This tradition has been celebrated in the East for more than 3,500 years. Unlike the Gregorian calendar, the Chinese calendar is governed by the lunar calendar, which is why the start date of the festivities changes every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2021 was represented as the year of the Metal Ox and will come to an end on February 1, 2022, when the Chinese New Year begins, since this celebration takes place on the second new moon after the winter solstice. The animal replacing it will be the&nbsp;<strong>water tiger<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the Chinese horoscope, the signs are assigned based on the year of birth. So if you were born in 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010 or 2022, your sign is the tiger. Some characteristics of this animal in Chinese astrology are&nbsp;<strong>strength and courage<\/strong>; tigers are considered kind and adventurous people who enjoy adrenaline, and they are also natural-born leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-3.expansion.mx\/dims4\/default\/d4d6563\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/4096x2160+0+0\/resize\/600x316!\/format\/webp\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn-3.expansion.mx%2F02%2Fd0%2F22087e7b4829b862dda41a604742%2Fistock-1278808817.jpg\" alt=\"A\u00f1o Nuevo Chino\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the activities that take place during the Chinese New Year celebrations, red decorations can be seen throughout the cities, as this color is the most representative of the festival. Fireworks are also very common in all regions of China, and they are set off to drive away bad vibes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the festival, people travel long distances to gather and have dinner with their families. On New Year&#8217;s Eve, it is customary to give a red envelope with money inside to attract good luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-3.expansion.mx\/dims4\/default\/ae5653b\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/8660x5773+0+0\/resize\/600x400!\/format\/webp\/quality\/90\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn-3.expansion.mx%2F3e%2F82%2F1e1843d746fc900344c2502ef12b%2Fistock-1289343339.jpg\" alt=\"A\u00f1o Nuevo Chino\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To bring this celebration to a close, the&nbsp;<strong>Lantern Festival&nbsp;<\/strong>is held, where lanterns are lit and traditional dances are performed.
