2014 is a year of the horse. The Horse is one of the eleven Chinese Zodiacs, together with the Dragon, Ox, Rooster and many more. If you were born in 2002, 1990, 1978, or 1966, it's your year (according to the Chinese Zodiac)!
You might celebrate the Spring Festival in a variety of ways. Dragon dances are popular not just in China, but also in different parts of the world (find them in their Chinatowns), visiting relatives and family members, having a family gathering and a meal together, giving red envelopes with money (usually to young children) and watching a display of fireworks.
So, to the people born in any of the years of the Horse, it's your year. Remember to make the most out of it, get some red envelopes and see you tomorrow for Part 2 of Lucky Numbers Around The World.
