Before dealing with all the intricacies of organizing the New Year, it is worth understanding who we are trying to please. The year of the White Metal Rat will replace the power of the yellow earthen Pig. Unlike the peaceful and harmless Pig, the Rat has a capricious and difficult character.

The Rat is by nature pragmatic and looks at things soberly. She is smart, quickly adapts to new conditions, although she prefers not to leave her comfort zone. Sometimes she is characterized by some aggression, but friendly enough.

Symbol of 2020 - White Metal Rat

According to the eastern calendar, a 12-year circular cycle begins. This means that the meeting of the New Year should be held on a grand scale, while all the requirements of the symbol of the year must be met.

To appease the wayward Rat, celebrate the New Year according to its rules:

The feeling of a holiday should be everywhere

1. . The capricious Rat does not like mediocrity and dullness, but also does not like clutter. Mice, although they pull all the valuables into their minks, do not tolerate frank rubbish and unnecessary things.

Do It new Year decoration do it yourself

1. . Practical Rat will appreciate your work. Let it be snowflakes made of paper or figurines of mice cut out of cardboard, but with an unusual author's approach.

What color to celebrate the New Year 2020

Next year the element of metal will reign. The color of the year is white and silver. Therefore, in the design of the New Year's atmosphere, bet on white and metallic shades. To some, this gamut will seem boring, but do not rush to draw conclusions. Milky, ivory, ivory, ash, antique white, gray and silver - all these shades will attract the attention of the Rat. It is in these colors that you need to meet the next 2020.

On the one hand, the Rat likes comfort and coziness, on the other hand, she loves everything luxurious and expensive. That's why festive outfit should be refined and made in the same style. This rule also applies to interior design.

What clothes to celebrate the New Year 2020

When all the preparations are left behind, the main question arises: what to wear for the New Year? The answer is simple: women must look chic and sophisticated, but by no means defiant or cheap.

Clothing should be comfortable, not hinder movement, emphasize the strengths of the figure and diplomatically hide the weaknesses. Open shoulders, small cutouts, decollete - be sure to use something from the arsenal of real seductresses. But remember - the practical Rat will not tolerate excessive frankness, everything should be in moderation.

Many people think that the Rat is an unattractive animal, but this can be argued. Despite the fact that the expression “rat tail” is negative, you can’t do without a beautiful hairstyle and makeup. So do not delay the organization of the holiday, so that you have time to put yourself in order and have a good rest.

The tradition of annually calculating the patron animal of the coming year came to us from China. By Chinese calendar 2020 comes into law only on January 25, 2020, so on this day it is worth gathering for a festive dinner with the whole family, preparing delicious dishes.

AT different countries the arrival of the next year is associated with many unusual signs. For example, in Cyprus, in the last seconds of the outgoing year, they turn off the light to turn it on in the New Year as a symbol of happiness, good luck and peace.

In Japan, there is a sign that you need to meet fire signs on your doorstep with money in your pockets. If they see the glitter of coins, they will add more, and otherwise they may consider such a gesture as disrespectful to themselves and leave the house forever.

Mexicans believe that while the chimes are striking, you need to make 12 wishes and eat the same number of grapes. If you have time, then in the new year all wishes will come true!

Now for the best part - gifts.

Residents of every country in the world have their own unique preferences in choosing gifts. In the UK, the New Year is considered one of the most expensive, as it is considered bad manners to give all sorts of little things here. Men get expensive Leather Products, women - branded perfumes or jewelry. The French consider perfume an intimate gift: only the husband can buy them for his wife. In India it is not customary to spoil children expensive gifts: most often, under the supervision of their parents, they choose sweets, flowers and small gifts from a common pile lying on a tray by touch.

The tradition of giving small souvenirs and postcards depicting the symbol of the year came to us from Japan. There, such gizmos are considered more important than any other presents.
