Today begins the New Year in China, along with the first new moon of the solar year. By the year 104 BC, the Chinese began to measure and observe the behavior of the shadows cast by a vertical rod driven into the ground (gnomon). In this way not only succeeded in determining the start of the seasons, but estimated the duration of the year 365.2502 days, an excellent approximation for the time, the year 480 AD, the wise Ju Chongzchi fixed it in 365.2428 days, an excess of only 52 seconds over the current value (which is 365.2422). In the calendar of China, due to the Moon and its cyclic movement, the first day of the year can fall anywhere between late January and mid February for the year 4708 for them, since the year 2600 before we Emperor Huang Ti introduced the first cycle of the zodiac, the day that, according to tradition, Buddha summoned the animals, which only reached 12 and they received as a reward rule a year, or astrological sign and become influence the personality and character of those born in that period. For astrologers Chinese this year for the Tigre, an animal that symbolizes power, people born under this sign are honest, caring and generous, have a wonderful sense of humor and love being the center of attention, they are independent beings and arrogant, stubborn, intelligent, intuitive, subtle and soft as aggressive.

This year's date has a special meaning because it also falls on Valentine's Day, the day of love and friendship, so it is a day to celebrate doubly suitable. Today, talk of East and West is obsolete; symbolically let us note here that the entire planet the person born under the sign of the tiger enjoying increased popularity is Marilyn Monroe, known in Eastern countries as "very honorable actress moving back." Legend
thousands of years ago there was a fierce monster named Nian that between the first and fifteenth day of each lunar month, down from the mountains to eat people. During these days the locals were locked in their homes until a wise old man thought the people were afraid it was empowered by the monster and persuaded them to fight and frighten him with the sound of drums, bells, dressed as dragons, burning bamboo and exploding firecrackers. On a cold night, the monster Nian, appeared again and was forced to retreat by the explosions and the noises that all people of the village generated, running until he fell defeated by the people: all his ferocity was not enough against a united people to fight. Since then, Chinese people have kept this beautiful tradition of the spring festival to celebrate the new year and keep the demons away from their homes.
There is now common superstitions in the world: If you experience ringing in the ears or make you ears warm is that someone is speaking ill of you, stand with your left foot is bad luck and sometimes have a bad day, stepping on crap good luck ; of those who have always kind, is said to have been born with a star, and the other crashed; if you see a hummingbird or hummingbird flying can make a wish and when you look in the sky a shooting star, to blow the candles on the birthday cake, an oath is worthless if while doing so cross your fingers, find a four-leaf clover will serve as an amulet for good fortune, if bankruptcy or you get to look at a broken mirror, you run the risk of having 7 years of bad luck ... Eastern shares also to celebrate the New Year are becoming universal at this time, as they make small superstitions such as cleaning the house, which is exercised sweeping every corner of the house. It is important to note that the Chinese people the act of sweeping is a method important: do not sweep the house tomorrow, first day of new year, so that good fortune does not leave, do so now as follows: Beginning at the door, sweep the house to the center of the room, the dust and trash is placed in a corner and stepped on or boot up the fifth day after the new year. If we sweep the debris toward the front or exterior of the house can remove a member of the family and also botaremos luck. It should always wipe from the front door in and remove trash from the back doors of the houses. If you sweep morning, sweeping the fate of the entire family. Nor is it advisable to perform household tasks, so we must ensure that on no dinner tonight for work tomorrow in the kitchen. You should expect the new year with all the house clean and store cleaning equipment. Clean sheets on the beds and towels in the bathrooms with new towels in the kitchen.
Personal cleanliness should be emphasized, too, carefully washing her hair today. You should not wear black or white, as they traditionally are the colors of mourning, which should be a day to wear red or red paint to add somewhere in the house, symbolizing an extra boost of energy . Oranges are excellent gold symbols. So in many households there are 8, 9, or 10 orange (the number prosperity) located on a plate in a central location in the house, along with dishes of nuts or candies to symbolize abundance and fruitful home. Place a new plant in the eastern sector of your home to symbolize good health and family relations for the New Year. Another superstition involving the use of the words must refrain profanity, talk about bad luck or offensive words, not to mention the word death or die. The first person to know and the first words we heard today and tomorrow are significantly important in terms of what will hopefully be for the entire year. It is inconvenient to greet someone in his room because on this day, even the sick should be clothed and seated in the room. Do not make references to last year and that all should focus on the New Year and a new beginning. Do not use knives or scissors on New Year's Day because it can cut the strings of fortune that can bring the year. As midnight approached in this New Year's Eve, every door in the house, and even windows, have to be open to allow the old year out. In China it is customary to have dinner with the family and stay up to welcome the new year with meal of fish and shellfish and converse actions to improve the health, welfare, prosperity and progress.
The tiger is the second most powerful animal on its calendar, which incidentally is on the verge of extinction (the most powerful is the dragon, which is extinct and now lives only in the recesses of our imagination.) The WWF (World Wildlife Fund) said two days ago that wild tigers are on the verge of extinction in Asia, unless the international community should act quickly to prevent a loss described as "devastating" for the biodiversity of our planet. WWF researchers said today the wild tiger population is estimated at only 3 000 200 copies, while in the early twentieth century, Asian forests were inhabited by over 100 000 tigers. There are no exact figures on the global population of tigers, but it is estimated that currently only 50 copies left in the jungles of China,''about 15''Bengal tigers living in Tibet, there are 10 Indo-Chinese tigers in the province of Yunnan, and about 20 Siberian tigers, said Xie Yan, director of the China Chapter of the Society for the Protection of Animals (WCS), who along with researchers from the WWF, they claim that failure to do something fast it is estimated that the species could extinguish the year 2022. The ancient custom in Eastern countries using tiger parts in traditional medicine is one of the big problems against the survival of this cat. These will lines as a small wake up call for the survival of the tiger.
