Do these things before the 2023 New Year to bring greater wealth and fortune!

The Lunar New Year is drawing closer and closer, and we all look forward to good fortune, good health and prosperity in the coming Year of the Rabbit. The following are some things for your reference, so let’s take a look at what’s there!

Pay off your debts before Chinese New Year

Pay off all debts owed, big and small, before Chinese New Year for a debt-free and fresh start. While others are happy to collect money for the New Year, you will also be relieved of the burden of debts in your heart and celebrate the coming year unencumbered. In this way, good luck and fortune will naturally arrive at your door in the New Year.

Perform spring cleaning at home

Spring cleaning before the New Year is a must for every household, and this custom dates back thousands of years. People in ancient times would associate “dust” with “old”, which was considered inauspicious. The atmosphere must reflect the new so the house must be cleaned before the arrival of the New Year to enjoy the intention of welcoming the new by discarding the old.

Place some potted plants and flowers in your home

Green plants and flowers represent vitality. Therefore, you may wish to plant some beautiful flowers or potted plants in the garden so that the mood will be naturally positive every day when you open the door to a good view. When the mood is positive, so too will your thoughts and all things will naturally proceed smoothly. At home, you can place some green plants that purify the air. Looking at green plants at the right moment can eliminate work stress, negative energy and fatigue while maintaining a good mental state.

Place two mandarin oranges on the bed and table

Placing mandarin oranges in the New Year signifies good luck and fortune. Therefore, you may wish to place mandarin oranges on the bed and table before the New Year or on New Year’s eve in order to attract positive luck in the new year.

Preparing e-wallets

As time progresses, more and more people are using e-wallets, and it is also popular among the younger generation to ask for e-angpow. Therefore, you can activate an e-wallet and top it up so that you can hand out or receive angpow from your friends and relatives during Chinese New Year.

Buying New Year clothes

Wearing New Year clothes during Chinese New Year conveys good wishes for the coming year, so we need to buy new clothes before the New Year. You may also want to try a new style in the New Year, and perhaps there may be unexpected surprises!

Do these things and you can have a happy and peaceful Year of the Rabbit!

Wishing all of you hop-piness and abundance in Year of the Rabbit, good health, prosperity and auspicious tidings!
