The year of birth has a long history. In ancient times, there was a saying of sixty-one, and sixty was life. Nowadays, people generally refer to the year of birth as the same year of their birth. In traditional folk customs, the animal year is considered as a hurdle. Even now, there are still many places. Pay attention to hanging red ribbons and wearing red underwear in the animal year, which means to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. More exquisite people will also go to the temple to ask for amulets, or ask Guan Gong to wait for a while, to bless a smooth year, and to help with transshipment.

People's love for red can be seen in many places. For example, red is considered to be a very auspicious color, so it is the main color when holding a happy event or wedding. Including festivals, putting up couplets, wearing new clothes, wrapping red envelopes, some red lists, certificates and so on. And most of them are red. In our traditional culture, red is endowed with some beautiful symbols, such as happiness, success, and avoiding misfortune.

In the choice of accessories, there is a traditional saying that wearing the artifact of the animal year helps to drive away evil spirits and bring good luck. Magic is a kind of god beast in ancient myths and legends, and many business people like to put it in the office. In addition, you can wear jade, crystal, pearls and other gems. Because it contains some trace mineral elements, it is helpful to human health, and it has special magnetic field and energy to help regulate the body and change the fortune. Choosing a gem that suits you is not only beneficial to your health, but also can eliminate negative energy and bring good luck and fortune.

In fact, the saying that the animal year will not be smooth sailing may not be settled today. The reason why we still keep this tradition now is more a habitual inheritance and a spiritual sustenance. Just like in ancient times, in case of flood or drought, people would think it was God's anger. In fact, today may be more than just the animal year, and we will feel unhappy for many years, because life is unhappy, and nine times out of ten it is more than just the animal year. Therefore, we can wear some red ornaments or precious stones, beautiful or transshipped, and find a psychological sustenance, but more importantly, we should seriously live the present, walk well, do good deeds and get lucky.
