Vietnamese Lunar New Year 2022
Vietnamese Lunar New Year 2022
"Tet" is the most popular Vietnamese holiday.
My project is about Tet's three main events.
Event 1: "Tet Tao Quan" takes place on the 23rd day of the 12th Lunar month. It is believed that on this day "Tao Quan" (the Kitchen God) leaves the house to go to the Heavens in the sky. To bid farewell to "Tao Quan", people offer the following: boiled chicken, steamed sticky rice, and three hats. Peach blossom is a flower from North Vietnam.
Event 2: "Gia Tien" is a day to worship family ancestors, gods, saints, bodhisattvas, etc. Marigold and chrysanthemum are important flowers on this day.
Event 3: The last stage is "Khai Xuan" which means starting a new year with new things. Apricot represents the spirit of Lunar New Year in the South.
Poster 1 shows a carp which turns into a dragon in posters 2 and 3. This depicts "Ca Chep hoa Rong" (folktale) which is a metaphor for succeeding in the service examination and signifies a wish for a child to grow and excel.
