2019 is the year of the Earth Pig, it is an auspicious year because the Pig attracts success in all spheres of life, especially friendship and money.  

Earth Pig is a mild and lucky animal representing carefree fun, good fortune and wealth.  If this is your Chinese zodiac sign, make sure your surround yourself with:

Hydrangeas, the number 2, 5, and 8, rubies, and the colors yellow, grey and brown.  Your element, believe it or not, is water.

So, on Tuesday, February 5, let’s celebrate Chinese New Year by feasting with great food (fish is said to bring profits), friends, and family.

Pass out little red envelopes with a bit of cash, it doesn’t have to be much, but it is a fun way to share a little moolah with your friends…

Eat Mandarin oranges to bring good fortune. Stock up a few days before because there is bound to be a surge on those little boxes of “Halos” at the grocery store.

Clean house. Don’t wait until spring, be ruthless and toss-out or give away all that stuff that is cluttering your life.

Wear something new. What BuDhaGirl doesn’t like that?

How about starting a new tradition…sharing All Weather Bangles.
