To say hello to the Lunar New Year, feng shui expert Hanz Chua shared his tips with GMA News Online on how to usher in good fortune in the Year of the Sheep.
Clean and cleanse. Welcome the new year by cleaning your home inside and out. Make sure your home is not cluttered. It's also recommended to get rid of broken appliances, gadgets, and other items. Cua warned that an untidy living space and collecting broken things invite poverty. After cleaning, "cleanse" your home by burning incense.
Check your home's plumbing and electrical system. Any leaks in your pipes and faucets symbolize "leaks" in your finances. Light bulbs, outlets, and switches should also be in good condition. Burned out light bulbs and faulty wiring signifies poor "qi" or energy flow, which can affect your good luck this year.
Get a haircut. Attention, single ladies and gentlemen: A new hairstyle can be your first step to finding love this year.
Wear the lucky colors. The feng shui expert said one should wear red for power and green for wealth when welcoming the Lunar New Year.
Get the essential fruits. In feng shui, 12 kinds of fruits should be prepared to symbolize each month of the year. Here are the fruits Cua recommended:
Prepared a "bountiful" media noche. Cua said that greeting the Lunar New Year with a bountiful table invites prosperity. Make sure you serve meat, fish, greens, fruits, and cakes for good luck. BUT, leave a few bits of each dish, which symbolizes you won't run out of food for the rest of the year. Gave ampao. These small red envelopes decorated with golden Chinese characters are given as gifts by the elderly to the children or the younger generation on New Year's Eve. The money inside these envelopes serves as "payments" to appease the ghosts so they won't bother the recipients of the ampao, Cua explained. The red envelope also signifies protection and good luck.
Made a loud noise. The Chinese believe that loud noise drives away evil spirits.
The real source of prosperity and abundance
