Goodbye 2015.
Following the holiday season, now it is the turn to speak of the end of the year and especially the ritual to welcome the new year in Mexico, to start with the right foot.
The celebration begins with a family dinner or with a meeting with friends in a nightclub on 31 December. And during this celebration Mexicans often do any of the following rituals.
- 12 grapes for chime. The idea is to swallow a grape for each chime of the last 12 seconds of the year, and for each, make a wish for the coming year.
- Toast. All attendees must make a toast with a glass of wine but should take the cup with right hand; otherwise, you will have bad luck.
- Red or yellow underwear. Yellow for the money and red for love. Some use it upside down and when it is new year put them in the right way.
- Sweep the bad vibes. You must sweep the house from back to front, and throw all the dirt through the front door and eliminate all the negative, of the past year.
- For travel. It will take a suitcase and will turn around the block of the colony, and the name of the destination you want to travel is will shout.
- Eating lentils. To have prosperity should eat a spoonful of lentils in the first minutes of the new year. (you have to cook lentils, do not eat raw)
- For those who want to get married. They should sit and stand up, for each of the twelve chimes. If you think this is good exercise :)
- Get pregnant. But if you want to get pregnant what should be done is to drink a glass of milk, right at midnight of 31 December.
- Remove sadness and evil. Throw a glass of water into the street symbolizes expel tears, sorrow and negativity.
- Change jobs. To get a new job next year must be to place three bay leaves in one of the shoes the last night of the year, and the next day take them out of the shoe, and burned. (careful with fire)
Whatever you do enjoy every moment and most importantly for next year it is to be happy, and one of the advice I can give is to stop worrying about what do other people, you always do the best you can, not snagging with comments, and live and let live.
Happy New Year!!!
