From complementary red pockets at Bubble Cafe to the Asian American Student Associationâs reimagined annual Lunar New Year celebration, there are signs across Athens that the Lunar New Year has arrived.
Friday marks the 2021 Lunar New Year, also referred to as Chinese New Year or Spring Festival. This year will be recognized as the âYear of the Ox,â named after the second zodiac animal.
The Lunar New Year is the most important holiday on the Lunar calendar and is named after the first new moon of the lunisolar calendars.
Many East Asian countries such as China, South Korea and Vietnam have traditions rooted in the Lunar calendar. The date of Lunar New Year varies according to the Gregorian calendar, but commonly occurs between Jan. 21 and Feb. 20, since it takes around 354 days for the Earth to completely orbit the sun to complete a solar year.
