Tied to the lunar calendar, today marks the start of the lunar new year. Celebrated across East and Southeast Asian cultures, it’s time to feast, gather and honor ancestors.

The celebration also ushers in the new Zodiac — in this case, the water tiger. The water tiger appears on the Zodiac calendar every 60 years, and signifies strength and eliminating evil with bravery.

How can you bring water tiger energy to the new year and new month? Can you muster up the bravery to make a big move or try something new?
