The Significance of the Year of the Snake
The Snake is a symbol of wisdom, intuition, and calmness in Chinese culture. It’s also associated with transformation and creativity. These traits align with Mark Ryden’s mission to provide innovative and practical solutions for modern life.
How Chinese New Year is Celebrated
In China, the Spring Festival is marked by vibrant traditions like family reunions, grand feasts, and spectacular fireworks. Homes are decorated with red lanterns and couplets to invite luck and ward off misfortune.
One fascinating tradition is the "Dragon's Breath" performance, where skilled performers use fire-breathing techniques to symbolize the mythical creature’s power and strength. This fiery spectacle is believed to chase away evil spirits and bring good luck for the year ahead.
Around the world, cities like San Francisco, London, and Sydney host colorful parades featuring dragon and lion dances, bringing communities together to celebrate. Another global favorite is the exchange of red envelopes filled with money, symbolizing blessings and prosperity.
