STJ Passport: Chinese Lunar Calendar

Have you really ever known the true history and mystery of the Chinese Lunar Calendar?

This picture is a real handwork from one of my friends. All the tools she needs, which are just a red paper and a scissor.

The Chinese Lunar Calendar names each of the twelve years after an animal. It is Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.

Legend has it that the Lord Buddha summoned all the animals to come to him before he departed from earth. Only twelve came to bid him farewell and as a reward he named a year after each one in the order they arrived. It is kind of like race. The Chinese believe the animal ruling the year in which a person is born has a profound influence on personality, saying: “This is the animal that hides in your heart.”

Here is the vedio of traffic in China, a little preview may give you a clear conception.
