Gung Hei Fat Choy! Chinese New Year Started on February 3rd, but festivities last for 15 days! We are in the year of the Rabbit. People born in the year of the Rabbit, are said to very fortunate, softly spoken and able to find happiness and contentment. Sound like you? If you're born this year, 1999, 1987, 1975, 1963, 1951, you're a Rabbit, the fourth animal in the 12-Year Cycle of the Chinese Zodiac.
