Today, the 16th of February 2026 is the Eve of Chinese New Year! Tomorrow will be the first day of the Lunar New Year.

All Chinese families will be making last minute preparation for the two biggest days, (the first and second day), of the Chinese calendar. It is customary for friends and families to visit each other and share in the joy and well wishes of the season. There will be plenty of food and Chinese New Year goodies to feast and munch on. It’s a jolly good time of the year!

I wish everyone celebrating the Chinese New Year a Happy, and Successful Year of the Horse!

The Horse is the sixth animal in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac, often seen as a symbol of strength, vitality, and adventurous progress. As a symbol of speed and vitality, it represents a time for bold, forward-moving action, overcoming obstacles, and pursuing freedom. Feng Shui masters considered it a lucky year for personal growth, and success.

With twelve animals and five elements, this will be Year of the ‘Fire Horse’, also known as ‘Crimson Horse’. This comes around every 60 years!
