One of the great things about living in a Chinese country or Chinese-influenced country (like Thailand or Singapore or whatnot) is that you get TWO New Years each year. Tomorrow (Feb. 14, Valentines day) is the date on which the lunar New Year falls this year (it recesses with the lunar cycle, sort of, and its far more complicated than that…, if you want an explanation post a comment :P… I lecture 3 whole classes in my ethnoastronomy course on the precession of the equinoxes and synodic(moon-based) and sidereal(in our case Sun-based) years.). As such, I will be largely out of commission until the main event (New Year’s eve and New Year’s day) have passed.
Exit the Ox....
Enter the Tiger!
This has been the year of the Ox… but Enter… the TIGER. In an ironic twist, last night my friend almost hit a cow on her way home… for those of you in the states (especially the western U.S.) that would not seem totally odd… but this is was in a crowded city…. in Taiwan… a country with few cows… she said two police men were running after it… sadly she did not get a photo… haha.
Anyway… I wish you all good fortunes in the coming New Year, both Solar AND Lunar.
