Chinese New Year 2012 -Year of the Water Dragon

Ah...Christmas is now really over. Have packed away the Christmas tree, the last mince pies have been eaten. Now comes Chinese New Year. This year according to the Chinese Horoscope will be the year of the Water Dragon.

With this in mind, there are various designs of ang pow / hong baos / red packets coming out. Ang Pows or Hong Baos or Red Packets are normally used by the Chinese as gift packets of money (but now sometimes can contain other gifts like lottery tickets etc), during festive season, largely during the Chinese New Year but also for other celebrations like birthdays, weddings and so on.

Ang Pows / Hong Baos / Red Packets also make great collectibles as there are so many great designs to choose from.

Dragons are considered extremely lucky by the Chinese and many will be looking forward to this year after the not so prosperous years that have gone by for a more prosperous year ahead and to have better fortunes in the up coming year.
