Lunar New Year is celebrated in many Asian countries (in Vietnam, it’s Têt, and Losar in Tibet). The festivities begin with the new moon, which this year fell on Feb. 1, and culminates with the full moon on Feb. 15. Each Lunar New Year is matched with one of the 12 zodiac animals. This is the Year of the Tiger — the tiger being a symbol of power, independence, and creativity.
