Why do they wear clothes with polka dot patterns during festivals in the Philippines?

In fact, in the Philippines, this is because of their customs, because the festivals, wearing polka dot patterned clothes, are symbolic of bringing good luck , and this custom has been inherited in the Philippines. In fact, such a strange New Year's custom, in many countries have different characteristics, for example, let's say China. Chinese people always like to put on a new clothes for the New Year, especially in the old days, in the New Year generally wear clothes are inclined to red, first of all, red represents festive, in addition to the red also represents the lucky .

So our New Year's Eve color palette is all red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red. Including our firecrackers are also red paper to make. Another example is some foreign countries, such as Finland, in the holiday season, the Finns will heat some lead, and then wait until the lead melted into a liquid, the road into the cold water, because the lead meets the water cooling, will naturally form a variety of shapes, and Finlanders will form the shape of the basis of divination used to predict their fate in the new year. .

The Finns have different stories about the shapes they form. If the cooled lead looks like a boat, it means that they will travel far in the new year. If the cooled lump of lead, is like a ball, it signifies that you will be lucky in the coming year of your life. Another example is like Denmark, where the Danes are so strange that they throw some plates at the homes of their relatives and friends on New Year's Eve. This is not a malicious act of revenge, but something like a blessing, if his friend in the next morning when he got up, see the door of the more porcelain shards, it means that he received the blessing is the more, also represents the more popular with everyone.
