Reflection note: This year of the Water Dragon, the fifth of the 12 Chinese animal zodiac signs, makes its auspicious entry on Jan 23. The celestial dragon is the ultimate symbol signifying success and happiness and the Chinese believe the New Year will bring good luck to those born in the year. Dragon year individuals are believed to be mostly enterprising, artistic, innovative, powerful, lucky, passionate and intuitive. On the negative side, they can be conceited and quick-tempered. And as the superstition reminds, not only red lanterns adorn homes but red should be the life theme right from the eve of the New Year until Chap Goh Mei, a period of 15 days, to enhance one’s good luck for the year.
