In traditional Chinese culture, the rat also symbolizes diligence and wisdom. The Year of the Rat is often seen as an auspicious year during the annual Lunar New Year. People born in the Year of the Rat tend to be very active and quick-witted. The cultural features of the Year of the Rat and its symbolic motifs often appear in the form of a witty little mouse. The Year of the Rat painting in the picture depicts the New Year of the Rat with children holding melon seeds, which indicates the happiness and prosperity of the family. It also includes a vibrant mouse farming scene.
(2) Ox (Year of the Ox): The ox symbolizes the spirit of hard work and perseverance. In an agrarian society, cattle are very practical farming animals. In Chinese culture, the ox is also regarded as a symbol of bravery, carrying the beautiful meaning of peace and smoothness. People born in the Year of the Ox are usually tough and hardworking. Patterns associated with the Year of the Ox are often closely associated with harvest scenes and rituals. For example, exquisite paper-cuts and New Year paintings often depict scenes of cattle ploughing, symbolizing the harvest and prosperity brought about by hard work. The picture shows the lively scene of the Year of the Ox celebration and the image of a ploughing ox full of fruits.
