Simple Chinese New Year Tips for Energy & Luck
1. Clean Before You Call In
Before Lunar New Year, clean your front door, wallet, and kitchen.
In Chinese energetics, these represent entry, money flow, and nourishment.
“You don’t need to clean everything — just clear the path.”
2. What Not to Do on New Year’s Day
Avoid throwing away trash or sweeping on New Year’s Day.
It symbolizes throwing out incoming luck.
“Do your clearing before the New Moon — then rest and receive.”
3. Wear One Intentional Color
Choose one color to wear based on what you’re calling in:
Red – vitality, courage, protection
Gold – prosperity, success
Green – growth, healing
White – clarity, fresh starts
Simple, visual, and very shareable.
4. Feed the Future You
Eat something warm, round, or symbolic:
Dumplings = abundance
Oranges = wealth & good fortune
Tea = clarity & intention
“Ritual doesn’t have to be complicated — intention is the magic.”
5. One Sentence Intention (Very Important)
Write one sentence only for the year ahead.
Example:
“This year, I move with clarity and let energy work for me.”
“In Tao philosophy, clarity directs energy faster than effort.”
6. Open the Body Before the Year Opens
Energy moves through the body before it manifests in life.
“That’s why we’re opening the year with Tao Energy work — to align the nervous system with intention.”
Storytime
As we enter the Lunar New Year, I want to share a small piece of my own lineage.
My great-great-great grandfather, Kim Fah Chong, was born in Canton, China (now Guangzhou) in September 1861. Before he was even a year old, just 10 months old, he crossed the ocean with his parents and arrived in Hawaiʻi.
They came during a time when Chinese families were brought to work the plantation fields on Maui. Life was hard. The land was demanding. Survival required strength, adaptability, and deep inner knowing.
During those same years, Maui was being visited by writers and travelers like Robert Louis Stevenson, observing Hawaiʻi as it stood between worlds, ancestral and modern, old ways and new economies.
Kim Fah Chong’s father, Kee Fai Chong, born in 1837 in China, carried with him generations of wisdom, discipline, and endurance. Those qualities didn’t disappear in the fields. They lived on in the body, in the blood, in the nervous system, passed down quietly through the generations.
That energy lives in me.
And it lives in this space.
At Laʻakea Healing Center, we don’t separate our lineages, Hawaiian, Chinese, Filipino, Western, we integrate them. We honor the ancestors not just by remembering their stories, but by creating spaces where energy, culture, and healing are shared with intention and respect.
This is how we carry them forward.
This is how we welcome the new year, together.
Happy Chinese New Year. May you be prosperous.🌙✨
新年快乐 Xīn Nián Kuài Lè
恭喜发财 Gong Hei Fat Choy. Gong Xi Fa Cai.
With gratitude and reverence,
Darcie
