Hop into Lunar New Year
Today is the start of the Lunar New Year, which ushers in the year of the rabbit. Those born in the year of the rabbit are believed to be ingenious, sweet, happy, quiet, and persistent. Famous rabbits include Albert Einstein, Frank Sinatra, Lionel Messi, and Ingrid Bergman. The Lunar New Year celebration spans from the first new moon in January through the next 15 days, until the year's first full moon lights up the night sky.
