Oakland, CA (PRWEB) January 27, 2006 -- For Asian Americans, the Lunar New Year is one of the most important holidays of the year. Chinese New Year, Vietnamese New Year (Tet), Korean New Year (Sol-Nal), and Tibetan New Year (Losar) follow many of the same customs dating back thousands of years.
This year family and friends can share the holiday joy in a brand-new way, by sending unique New Year cards and Chinese Zodiac cards from Chopsticks, Please at http://www.chopsticksplease.com/lunar.html.
Since the lunar calendar is based on the cycles of the moon, Lunar New Year officially begins on January 29, when the first new moon appears. The festival ends with the full moon, fifteen days later, on February 13, 2006.
This year's celebration ushers in the Year of the Dog. Those born under this sign are extremely loyal, honest, and keep secrets really well.
