The Year of the Dragon

The Chinese New Year is today January 23, 2012 it is the year of the Dragon. In Chinese tradition, each year is dedicated to a specific animal from the Chinese zodiac, it is believed that the particular new year adopts the characteristics of that animal of the zodiac. Unlike the perception of the dragon in west to be of an evil and destructive entity, the Chinese revere the dragon as a symbol of power, superiority, and luck. Therefore, 2012 is predicted to be a year of prosperity and luck.
