In China, preparation for the Lunar Year begins with a thorough cleaning of the house. This symbolizes the sweeping away of bad luck from the previous year and preparing the home for good fortune. This must be completed before the new year.
Lunar New Year Eve will find the extended family gathered together for a feast called “reunion dinner”. This is the most important time to be with families. Adults would give the children red packages which contain money, signifying the passing of good fortune. Sometimes, the children will give their elders red envelopes as well, showing gratitude and wish for longevity. The color red signifies happiness, prosperity, can ward off evil spirits and bring good luck. Lunar New Year is celebrated with good food and visits with friends and family.
Fireworks and firecrackers are set off to ward off evil spirits and welcome the new year. Lion or dragon dances are performed for prosperity and good luck for the new year.
