(from a seriously superstitious Chinese-Nicaraguan family)
- Eat 12 grapes at the stroke of midnight for 12 months of good luck.
- Throw bowls or buckets of water out of the house to get rid of the tears and troubles of the past year.
- To encourage travel, take your luggage for a run around the block or a few trips up and down your stairs. Be sure to pack for the kinds of trips you want to have.
- Eat long noodles for luck and longevity.
- Make as much noise as possible to ward off bad spirits/energy. The best way is to go outside and bang your pots and pans together and yell.
- Clean your house. If you don’t want to clean your whole house, just sweep everything out the front door. You’ll be cleansing your house of both dust and bad juju.
- Write a list of the things you want to forget from the past year and then burn it.
- And to tell the future you can crack an egg open into a glass of water. The whites and yolk will form an image of your future in the new year.
1.1.20 - What a long, hard, crazy, beautiful year it has been. Hope this year is just as good.
