Animal year is a China word. The past was the year of the return of the five elements, that is, the 60-year animal year. Now it refers to the year of lunar calendar 12, commonly known as the animal year. In the traditional customs of the Han nationality, the Year of the Animal is usually considered as an unlucky year. The folk song "The year of birth is too old, too old to take the lead, and there will be disaster without happiness" is the best portrayal of the unlucky year of birth. Therefore, Han people usually refer to the "year of birth" as the "threshold year", that is, spending the year of birth is like stepping into the threshold. Every animal year, in all parts of the northern Han nationality, no matter adults or children, they need to wear red belts, commonly known as "tying red", and children also need to wear red vests and red shorts, thinking that this can make money and avoid disasters. During the Spring Festival, there are red and yellow ribbons selling "auspicious ribbons" and "auspicious knots" everywhere in the market. People tied them around their waists and wrists in the animal year, which also entrusted the good wishes of the working people of the Han nationality to eliminate evil, avoid disasters and pray for blessings.
