Chinese New Year: Tips To Bring The Most Into Your New Year

By: carole provzolne

On february 18th, we will be ringing in another new year. Wait a minute, didn't we just do that? I am speaking of the chinese new year and the energy and life that surrounds that special day. Do you have to be chinese to ensure a wonderful new year with wonderful new beginnings? Absolutely not! Try these simple, inexpensive things to welcome in the terrific new start you have been looking for.
* here i go again, the clutter word in chinese new year hamper. Unused clothing, old food, anything no longer needed or used should be discarded. The is not a whole spring cleaning, rather your intent (and some room) to allow the new energy into your space. Give goodwill a call, you'll both be grateful.
* clean up, dust the cobwebs away, energize your surroundings. Many consultants use sage or you can simply use sound as a method of space clearing. Set your intentions to rid the home of anything negative that has occurred and simply tap on something that reverberates. A good cut crystal glass and a spoon work well. Make sure to get the corners where the energy lingers.
* if you can, pay down some bills. The ones you have been putting off that are lying around, the overdue ones. Start the new year off with as clean a slate as possible and as little debt owed as you can. Remember, even if you can't afford to pay much, it's your intention to allow the debt out of your life this year to attract all the wealth you will need or want.
* do something special for yourself. Treat yourself at this special time to a massage, that dress you have been wanting, a nice dinner or just a long bubble bath with no distractions. Something just for you so that other good things follow the new energy you are putting into yourself.
* make a change. It could be significant or something small but do something different. New years and new beginnings mean a new way of doing things, changing the old that doesn't work for us anymore or things in our life that are stagnant. You might get a new hairstyle, a new look, take a different route to work, meditate, anything you feel comfortable with that signifies that you are willing to "go with the flow" and allow the new energy and the new changes in.
*sweep the kitchen floor anytime prior to midnight on the chinese new year's eve. It symbolizes letting go of the old and putting it right outside (example : chinese new year hamper)
