What Does This Lunar New Year Mean For You?
Learn what the Year of the Rat has in store for 2020.
In case your 2020 resolutions didn't go quite the way you had hoped, Lunar New Year presents another opportunity for a fresh start. Most of us are accustomed to sightings of dragons and red paper lanterns come January/February of each year, and we know it as one of Asia's most important holidays, but it actually marks the start of a new lunar cycle, which can signify new beginnings, no matter what your cultural background.
Travel and mobility are in the stars for the Tiger this year, but be sure to stay mindful of your mental health, as Gu Chen, a star representing bad moods is present in your 2020 constellation.
To establish what this new lunar year means for you, you first need to figure out your animal sign.
