FEARLESS IN RED 🧧🧨💥
As a kid, I just didn’t buy in to mythology, be it Chinese or Greek. When told of man-eating monsters, I would roll my eyes 🙄 Now, when searching for why we do things a certain way during Chinese New Year, I realize mythology provides quick answers.
Legend has it that the ferocious man-eating Nian 👹 would appear on the eve of CNY and destroy everything in its path unless beaten back by the color red, loud noises, and bright lights. Hence the habit of pasting red couplets on doors, wearing red clothes and lighting of firecrackers. Now that firecrackers have been banned for years, that leaves us with only the color red to ward off the big bad beast. Whether it's Nian, inflation worries, or health fears, let’s boldly wear red this festive season... It may be just what you need to fearlessly take on the world in 2023!
