Just in case you guys are thinking what the heck is going on in the image,
it’s all traditional Japanese stuff you see during this season.

country 🙂

Happy new year @zeus777

‘Traditional’ Indian new year happens in another season. The December new year is basically the Gregorian new year used for official purposes.

Here’s how traditional new year is celebrated in India :

Ooookaaaay, I have NO idea what is going on, but I will say that the bright orange colors are beautiful. I’m guessing that orange is the color that represents New Years?? Or good luck?

It’s (サフラン). Saffon is an auspicious color used in abundance in all our festivals (Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh all consider it auspicious). Our new year starts in April-June. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_New_Year’s_days

Yes, broadly, it means good luck. It symbolizes the core of Eastern philosophy on a deeper level, as it is seen as extolling the virtues of the Sun and Fire. Saffron is considered auspicious across all Asian nations (India, China, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Tibet, Bhutan, Laos). You might remember pop culture references of Buddhist monks ( or Shaolin fighters) wearing saffron robes (in Japanese Buddhism, it’s called kesa (袈裟).

Happy new year all! Let me share a tradition within The Netherlands, Oil Balls! I really can’t imagine living without these tasty things 🙂

Ohhhhhhhhh darn, they look good. Are they like doughnut balls with powdered sugar? And you have them with wine?? Or some kind of alcohol? drool drool
