Would you hang a stuffed rooster in your home, especially at a strategic place like the front door? Or perhaps even at the back door? Well, some superstitious people would go to great lengths or pay a handsome sum to own a stuffed bird and proudly hang it at the doorway of their homes. Local feng shui master Wong Keen Ming says: “Some people believe that by displaying the rooster at the doorway of the home (front or rear), they can ward off evil and avert bad luck too. A fierce rooster or better still, a fighting cockerel, makes a better guardian.” He laughs as he recounts another ridiculous suggestion that one should keep a chicken on the boil (sap kai) throughout the 15 days of Chinese New Year. On the first day of the Chinese New Year, some people say that you should refrain from getting those born in the rooster year to eat first. He advises: “if you are going to greet someone, begin with Kong Hei Fatt Choy (Have a prosperous year) and don’t ask, sek pau mei? (Have you eaten?). It is believed that the rooster will eat up your luck.” Some asked whether they should sprinkle rice in the front yard. “They believe that by doing so, the well-fed rooster will be happy and the household will be blessed,” says Wong with a laugh. Feng shui grandmaster Yap Cheng Hai laughs off another suggestion advising people to rear chickens (for good luck?) in the Year of the Rooster. Then there’s an even more ridiculous suggestion that couples who marry in the blind rooster year will not have any children. Meanwhile, geomancer Phillip Cheong says he has heard some Chinese telling others not to eat chicken throughout the 15 days of Chinese New Year. “This is mere superstition,” he says. Wong says individuals born in the Year of the Rat and the Dragon will have a good year. The year is not favourable to those born under the zodiac signs of the Rooster, the Horse and the Dog. The Snake, Ox and Dragon are good partners for the Rooster. Thus they would enjoy good luck this year, says Cheong. On the other hand, those born in the year of Rabbit clashes with the Rooster. However, determining the luck of an individual based on one’s zodiac sign, he feels, is “too general and stereotypical.” During the New Year, some Chinese are concerned whether their zodiac signs will “offend” (farn in Cantonese) the Grand Duke (also known as Tan Sui). Those born in the year of the Rabbit should “not be overly concerned about this.” Based on his experience, he insists that “if one’s horoscope analysis under the Purple Star System shows that he/she will have a good year, nothing bad will happen to them. Instead, the individual will enjoy good luck should he/she encounter more auspicious stars this year.” According to Yap, those born in the year of the Rooster can use the zodiac sign of the Rooster to help them if they know how to manage themselves. For those contemplating to start work during Chinese New Year, Yap says, “It’s auspicious to start work on Feb 15 between 9.30 a.m to 11.30 a.m.Those who tap good luck will most likely enjoy good fortune for 60 to 120 days.” Those born in the year of the Rat should be at work three hours later. He/she will reap fortune and share the luck with his/her colleagues. If the Rat breaks this “time-restriction” taboo, then he/she will ruin everybody’s luck. This year, “red” is said to be the inauspicious colour. However, many Chinese are still following tradition and will ignore this warning from feng shui practitioners. After SULIT

all, angpow packets are always in red! Cheong says; “It’s also common for the Chinese celebrating the new lunar year to display red coloured items in houses, offices and shophouses to enhance their wealth or prosperity.” However, do not place any red items (in the Year of Rooster) in the east and north-west sectors of the house or office to avoid disturbing the Star of Sickness (Er-Hei in Mandarin), Three Killings (San-Sah) and the Five Yellow (Wu-Huang).” What about wearing red apparel? Cheong considers green to be the auspicious colour. “However, not everybody will enjoy good luck wearing green. Earth people should not be wearing green as it clashes with their personal elements,” he says. Wong thinks blue is an auspicious colour to wear during Chinese New Year. “Purple, gold and white are also good. Avoid inauspicious colours, particularly (fiery) red as well as Earth colours. Black is a no-no,” he says. Yap feels that “wearing a bit of red doesn’t matter. But don’t go overboard with red (such as red blouse, red slacks). Light shades of red should be all right.” Adapted from: ‘The STAR Lifestyle’ Ushering in the New Year 9th February 2005

People in the village soon noted the absence of the two little girls. They had died at the lands and were buried there, the family said. But people noted their ashen, terror- stricken faces and a murmur arose. What had killed the children, they wanted to know? And the family replied that they had just died. And people said amongst themselves that it was strange that the two deaths had occurred at the same time. And there was a feeling of great unease at the unnatural looks of the family. Soon the police came around. The family told them the same story of death and burial at the lands. They did not know what the children had died of. So the police asked to see the graves. At this, the mother of the children broke down and told everything.
