New Year is the most beloved and significant holiday for all people! Long before its onset, people begin to prepare for it with special care. After all, everyone knows the Russian proverb “How you celebrate the New Year is how you will spend it!” Everyone wants each subsequent year to be better than the previous one. That is why everyone is trying to prepare for the celebration in the best possible way.
Therefore, long before the holiday, a menu is prepared, a program is drawn up, and gifts are bought. Also, much attention is paid to clothing, hairstyle... What can I say, attention is paid to absolutely everything related to the holiday. After all, everyone wants to have a successful New Year!
And in order for this to happen, in addition to preparation, it is necessary to enlist the support of the owner of the Year - who is the symbol of a certain animal according to the eastern calendar. And the Year 2017 is very interesting in this sense! Because the Fire Monkey is being replaced by the Year of the same Fiery, and even the Red Rooster!
Why interesting? Yes, because in the Chinese calendar the Rooster is the most spectacular and sophisticated sign of the eastern horoscope. He is very bright, sociable, demonstrative - he needs to shine everywhere!
But at the same time he is very practical and responsible, organized and decisive. He is always on the alert, his vigilance and insight can be envied. The rooster is ready to defend what belongs to him, day and night. He is the true owner of his territory, and takes care of everyone who lives on it with him. He is reliable and you can rely on him in any situation.
He is strict, serious and fair. For him there are no trifles, he is a pedant who is demanding and scrupulous about everything. That is why he never leaves his affairs unfinished, but on the contrary, in all his endeavors he strives to do them as well as possible, which invariably leads to their ideal completion.
Now I’m writing a description and already feel great sympathy for this sign of the eastern horoscope!
But it is important that the Rooster also feels mutual sympathy! And for this it is necessary to “appease” him and meet his arrival in such a way that he is satisfied. Let's look at such important issues as how to celebrate the New Year, what to prepare for the New Year's table and what to wear as a festive outfit!
How and where to celebrate New Year 2017 - Year of the Fire Rooster
Since 2017 is not the year of the ordinary Rooster, but the Year of the Fire Rooster, the holiday should be just as bright, eventful, fun and memorable!
Preparations for the holiday should be carried out very responsibly and in an organized manner. Let’s not forget that our Cockerel is a big pedant in such matters. And he will not forgive us if we prepare for the holiday, which is called “carelessly.” You need to think through everything down to the smallest detail, and having drawn up an action plan, begin to implement it.
It will be good if the whole family and all the participants of the holiday are involved in organizing the holiday! Trust everyone with something of their own. But so that the work that everyone will do gives him pleasure! After all, without pleasure, there will be no creativity, there will be no joy!
And it is very important that not only the holiday itself, but also the preparation for it are bright and memorable!
Don't be afraid to experiment. The Rooster loves to improvise and come up with something new. Therefore, in some ways it is worth relying on intuition and imagining well. Your efforts will not go unnoticed, and the Rooster will certainly pay attention to them.
Think in advance about how best to decorate the interior of your home. Usually any symbol of the Year treats its image very well. Therefore, use whatever you see fit for this! Souvenir figurines, flags, Christmas tree decorations, calendars, posters.
Choose bright, pure colors for decoration - red, yellow, green - and all their many shades! The Rooster does not like any cheap tinsel. Therefore, it is worth decorating a house with special style and care, thinking through various little things.
Make a guest list.
Think over your holiday menu. It will be discussed below. Make a list of products you need to purchase. Start purchasing them ahead of time, especially those that can be stored. After all, we don’t want to run around shopping on the very last day. And for this very last day, leave only perishable products that can be bought quickly and easily.
Create a holiday script. Guests will not eat salads and watch TV all evening. No less important than preparing delicious food, you also need to create the best holiday atmosphere. So that it would be fun and interesting for all those gathered, both the smallest and the most sedate.
Think in advance about gifts for your friends and family. There is also no need to leave their purchase or production until the last day, and then buy the first suitable one that comes to hand. Gifts should also be extraordinary. They should be unexpected, cheerful, bright, in no way pretentious, the simpler the better!
Handmade gifts are welcome. They can be bold, original, unique, mysterious and fun. The wildest imagination will also come in handy here.
The question that worries everyone is Where is the best place to celebrate the New Year?
In fact, the New Year is a family holiday! And the current Year of the Rooster calls for this in a special way. After all, as you know, He is the true Owner of his entire territory, and bears full responsibility for those who live on it, and besides, he is also a poultry! Therefore, he will be especially pleased if the whole family, young and old, gathers at the festive table. It is very important for him that everyone is together!
A large, noisy and cheerful company is very welcome. Gather not only all your closest relatives, but also invite close friends and families. May your home be filled with fun and joy on New Year's Eve!
Since the Rooster is very practical and thrifty, he is unlikely to appreciate going to a restaurant or cafe. For him it will be too wasteful and impractical! Therefore, to go to the above establishments, you must have a very compelling reason so that the Fire Master understands why you decided to do so.
Celebrating the New Year should take place in a cozy, favorable environment. It is better to leave all family problems in the outgoing year, make peace with everyone with whom you are in a quarrel. The rooster is a domestic bird, and he will not forgive you for family quarrels and disagreements! The Fire Symbol of the Year loves order in everything - and family relationships are the most important thing for him!
What to cook for the New Year 2017, menu and New Year's table setting
As we noted above, Cockerel is a villager. And despite his bright appearance, he is quite simple by nature, and loves everything practical and simple. But at the same time beautiful and sophisticated! This is exactly what we must take into account when decorating the New Year's table and preparing dishes.
It is better to choose a tablecloth for a festive table in red, or in its shades, on which gold napkins will look great. Or stick with a traditional white tablecloth and pair it with bright, colorful red napkins.
For decoration, red or white candles in golden candlesticks will be good.
It would be very good to decorate the table in a rustic style. In this case, use a linen tablecloth and the same napkins. For decoration, use wooden or clay dishes painted with bright colors, wooden or forged candlesticks for candles, various matting, straw baskets, and everything in the same style.
Be sure to place a plate with grain or ears of wheat in the middle of the table. If there is a small figurine of the Rooster, then place it next to it. Or make a joint composition. You can also germinate wheat grains in advance. Sprouted grains promise prosperity and prosperity in the house!
When creating a menu, think through it in such a way that everything is appropriate, so that nothing is superfluous or unnecessary. We remember how practical and thrifty our Owner is. He will not forgive us for excessive wastefulness, especially if there are too many dishes and they remain uneaten.
New Year's dishes should not be too complicated, and the prepared food should not be too heavy. There is no need to cook excessively fatty foods.
Particular attention should be paid to ensuring that there are no chicken dishes on the table. It is also not advisable to have whole chicken eggs. We don’t want to offend the Fire Rooster at all! And therefore, if you have in mind your favorite salads with chicken that you want to prepare for the holiday table, then do not deny yourself this, but simply replace the chicken with boiled pork or beef.
There are no other restrictions for the festive table. Cook whatever your heart desires. But in order to please the Fire Master, still take into account some recommendations.
It is especially worth paying attention to the various festive fish and seafood dishes. Here you can give free rein to your imagination and prepare a variety of combinations. Fish can be fried, steamed, and best of all, baked in the oven. It is better to bake whole, garnished with vegetables, lemon, and bright red tomatoes.
Various dishes with shrimp or squid will also be welcome on the New Year's table. These include various salads and snacks. They are delicious in any form and are always well received by guests.
Red caviar will be especially appreciated by the Red Rooster! This is exactly what he needs. Therefore, either just put it on the table, or prepare some holiday dish with it. This will please both everyone present and our Host of the Year!
Any salads with a New Year's theme or with the name "Red Cockerel" would also be appropriate. An extra mention at the New Year's table will flatter him, and he will not ignore it! We remember how organized and pedantic he is, he doesn’t forget anything! And he will respond to the respect shown to him with a successful and prosperous year in all respects!
We use the meat we love! Pork, beef, veal - everything will be fine! It is best to bake the meat whole. You can bake it in a sleeve, in foil, whatever you like! Baked pork stuffed with carrots and garlic will be very good. seasoned with various spices and herbs. This aroma will not leave our Rooster indifferent! And this is very good! After all, we try to please him in everything!
Or you can cook meat with grains, for example bright, colorful pilaf! Here you can find meat, cereals, and bright colorful carrots! Everything fits the holiday!
Don't forget about bread too! Grain is the main food for the Rooster! Therefore, any baked goods will be very useful. Rolls, rolls, pies, stretchers with fish - what could be better! And bread baked with your own hands will give your home warmth and comfort. All evil spirits leave a house that smells of freshly baked bread. And it’s also better to leave it in the outgoing year!
Don't forget about vegetables. Vegetables are served fresh or baked. Canned vegetables can also be safely placed on the table. We use them in salads, appetizers, or main dishes. Impromptu and flights of fancy are welcome!
You can decorate salads and main dishes with fresh herbs, red tomatoes and red and yellow bell peppers, as well as pomegranate seeds.
Place the fruits in wicker vases. They will decorate any table with their bright colorful flowers, and the smell of tangerines will give us the smell of childhood and anticipation of a miracle on this long New Year's Eve!
We prepare light desserts. After what we have already prepared, it is unlikely that anyone will be able to handle the cake or other heavy dessert. Although the Rooster loves various cakes! Therefore, if you make a cake, decorate it with bright fruits and flax, sesame or sunflower seeds.
Or simply make a dessert with berries with light sour cream or buttercream. Preferably in a small container, which is called one clove! Or prepare a light berry or fruit mousse.
Now, as for alcohol. The red rooster is a fighter, a bully. Anything goes wrong and we immediately get into a fight. Sitting in a corner is not for him.
Therefore, it is desirable that there be as little strong alcoholic drinks on the table as possible. It is better to get by with champagne and red or white wine.
Or you can search the Internet in advance and prepare various cocktails. By the way, “cocktail” is translated from French as “rooster tail” - there is an opportunity to get creative and prepare your own version. I think that our symbol of the Year will be especially happy with such a drink.
After all, no one wants any conflicts to happen on New Year's Eve. The rooster will definitely not like this! The holiday should be celebrated cheerfully, comfortably, in a friendly atmosphere, next to those who are dear to you, and to whom you are dear!
What to celebrate the New Year 2017 - Year of the Fire Rooster
The Fire Rooster simply loves all kinds of attention. And sincere compliments and praise are very important to him. In addition, he not only monitors his appearance, but also pays attention to what everyone else’s appearance is like. Therefore, if you please him with your clothes, hairstyle and makeup, he will not leave it without his attention.
So what outfit should you prepare for the New Year? Let's figure it out.
The Rooster is a brilliant dandy. But despite his brightness and demonstrativeness, he is still a great lover of refined simplicity. Excessive pretentiousness and pomp, and even more so, high cost - this is not for him!
But since the coming 2017 is the Year of the Fire Rooster (that is, the element of fire), some justified courage will only benefit you. Since the Rooster is very demonstrative and loves to be in the center of attention, he will appreciate such actions from you. In preparation for the holiday, you can completely change your image, change your hairstyle, hair color, do bright makeup, wear clothes that you have never worn before. The Rooster loves to experiment, and therefore your improvisation will not go unnoticed!
When choosing a New Year's outfit, women should give preference to dresses in bright colors. These are all numerous shades of red, from orange to lilac and purple. All shades of yellow and gold are also welcome. Brilliant white and pearlescent colors are allowed. Black, especially in combination with red and gold, will look very impressive and will not leave the Master of the Year unnoticed!
Colors should be bright and clean, but in no case pretentious or flashy.
The length and cut of the dress do not matter. It can be either a long or short dress. The main thing is that it looks impressive and stylish, fits the figure impeccably, and does not look too provocative.
Simplicity, style and sophistication - this is what we should strive for when choosing a New Year's outfit!
You should not choose a dress in “dirty” shades of earthen or marsh color. The Rooster will not like colors such as gray, flesh, mustard, pale blue and greenish yellow.
Pay special attention to the selection of accessories. Small gold jewelry and items made from natural stones - amber, coral, garnet - would be appropriate. Or pearls, or products made of mother-of-pearl. All of them are the right color for the occasion, and our Rooster will really like them!
Men should also pay attention to the choice of clothing and thinking through their image. A man in a strict classic suit is always very stylish! Therefore, if you celebrate the New Year in a suit, it will not go unnoticed by anyone, including the Symbol of the Year.
But you probably don’t want to be in a suit all evening, especially if you’re in a family home. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the choice of shirt. The shirt is welcome in the same colors that we considered when choosing a women's outfit. Same colors, same combinations.
And so, I think that now we are completely ready to prepare and celebrate the most important holiday - the New Year 2017 - the Year of the Red, Fire Rooster!
The most important thing is that we know its main characteristics, and thanks to this we will be able to properly prepare for the holiday, and most importantly, celebrate it unforgettably and brightly! Kind congratulations, smiles, joy, fun, songs, dances - this is what the Fire Master needs for a successful holiday!
So that the coming Year will be as unforgettable, bright in all respects and memorable as the most successful Year!
And I hope that the Fire Rooster will help us with this. After all, we tried so hard to please him on New Year's Eve! And let the New Year come only on January 28th according to the eastern calendar. We celebrate the holiday on December 31, and we hope that on this day the Rooster will not ignore all our efforts!
The pre-holiday days and the holiday itself will be unusually fun, joyful, successful and on a grand scale. Anyone who loves to travel can plan a wonderful romantic getaway during this time. This is a time of creative flight, love, sexual activity, unbridled fun and joy, as well as significant purchases.
December 31, 2016 is a very auspicious day. Our passionate desire for happiness on this day will coincide with opportunities, and the stars will smile back at us. When such a successful coincidence of time and astrological cycles occurs, it is a rare success.
It is at such moments that these colorful fireworks shooting into the sky, foamy champagne in crystal glasses and confetti waterfalls have a special meaning. Take advantage of this rare opportunity to celebrate the New Year in a big and fun way. On this day you should not succumb to pessimism, you should have fun and not be alone.
If you are celebrating the New Year at home, decorate the rooms in a cozy rustic style: lay a linen tablecloth and woven napkins on the table. Hang handmade toys on the Christmas tree. Don’t forget to give the Cockerel the most visible place on both the table and the tree. Ripe bright red apples, orange tangerines and oranges, spruce branches or corollas will be very appropriate.
Simple things made from natural materials are suitable for decorating rooms: wood, fabric, clay, wicker. Wicker mini baskets, clay vessels, linen napkins and towels, pillows with an embroidered natural pattern or traditional ornament will look good. It wouldn’t hurt to decorate the room with bouquets of wildflowers; dried specimens are also suitable.
It is preferable to decorate the Christmas tree with yellow, red balls and bright orange-red tinsel. It must have red, orange, and gold details. Make it yourself and place a nest with chocolate eggs, sweets in bright wrappers, tangerines or apples under the tree. The owner of the year will be pleased to receive such a souvenir.
Gifts can be bought inexpensive, but practical. The Rooster does not like useless things. Don't forget to dress up not only the Christmas tree, but also all the plants in the house in festive attire. Let there be a lot of colors around! To decorate the table, in addition to red, green and blue shades are suitable.
An obligatory element on the table is numerous candles, which must certainly burn on New Year's Eve. This New Year, do not be afraid to overdo it with brilliance in decorating your home, brightness, light, play of colors and lights. To attract financial flows, you need to decorate your house with gold coins. And also hang triangular envelopes of gold and red colors on the Christmas tree, having previously inserted coins into them.
In order for 2017 to be successful and bright, you need to purchase a figurine or image of the Rooster. This will allow the patron animal of the year to guard and protect you from dangers. It is best to place figurines and images of the Rooster in the western part of the house or apartment, which will help protect your home from negative influences from the outside.
It is very important that the New Year's menu suits the Red Rooster's taste, so under no circumstances cook chicken. If you can’t live without poultry, then opt for duck, turkey or goose. The cockerel likes any dishes that contain cereals, grains, corn, grains. Add homemade croutons and pomegranate seeds to your salads.
Table decorations will include bread, cheese, olives, and seafood dishes. These could be sandwiches with pieces of red fish, appetizers with shrimp, salads with squid or crab sticks. A worthy replacement for poultry would be fish in its pure form, prepared in different ways: stewed, fried, salted or smoked. This year it would be nice to richly decorate the New Year's table with bright colors of fresh herbs, vegetables and fruits.
It is better to use fruits and herbs everywhere, adding them to various dishes as side dishes or simply decorating dishes with them. Considering that the New Year's meal begins quite late, a menu based on vegetation and seafood will not cause stomach discomfort.
Sushi will help diversify the table; it contains only products of plant origin and fish. If it is not possible to refuse meat, then you should cook it in whole pieces and serve it baked. Do not skimp on seasonings and spices, let the dish be piquant.
The Rooster will respond favorably to drinks such as wine or champagne, but you need to be careful with strong alcohol. There are no serious restrictions when choosing desserts. Just avoid too high-calorie and heavy sweets. Ideal would be small shaped cookies with a New Year's theme, which will include whole grains, nuts or dried fruits.
There is no need to allow the presence of alcohol in desserts; the Red Rooster will not approve of this. When preparing desserts for the festive New Year's table, it is better to use natural ingredients. These can be berries, nuts, dried apricots and fresh fruits. To reduce calorie content, you should choose recipes for marmalade, soufflé or mousses. For example, strawberry dessert with kiwi. Try to use cottage cheese and fresh fruits.
As for the outfit, it is better to opt for a bright, fashionable and expensive dress. Clothes should contain red, yellow and orange colors. If you don’t like these colors, you can dress up in something purple or blue. But in this case, do not forget bright accessories and expensive gold jewelry.
Red in combination with silver or gold is a symbol of wealth and abundance. Your image should be unusual, bright and extravagant. You should not wear strict tight skirts, classic suits and sheath dresses. Flowing dresses, fluffy skirts, flared trousers, and voluminous blouses are best suited.
Asymmetry is a real trend for 2017. The dress may have a slit that exposes one leg. The most suitable New Year's accessories are sparkling ones. Celebrating the New Year in golden sandals or shoes is a good sign. In addition to shoes, gold or silver color is perfect for a belt, handbag, scarf and other of your favorite accessories.
It is best to decorate an elegant hairstyle with several colored feathers or wooden sticks. Feathers will also look good as earrings on your ears. Men should choose shirts and jumpers closer to yellow, brown or burgundy.
To successfully celebrate the New Year of the Rooster 2017, you need to gather with a large group of friends and family. The more people you invite to your table, the better. However, try not to go beyond certain limits. The influence of the planet Pluto can lead to excessive drinking and entertainment and, as a result, to unpredictable consequences for your health.
Such luck comes once in a lifetime - the year of the Red Rooster. This color represents sensuality, passion, love, which attracts, warms, and ignites like fire. It is his element that in 2017 is subject to the ninth sign of the eastern horoscope.
