<p>Rachel Song: The Chinese Barbie Queen Taking the World by Storm<br />
In today&#8217;s world of fashion and entertainment, few figures shine as brightly as Rachel Song. Known to the public as the &#8220;Chinese Barbie Queen&#8221; due to her striking resemblance to the iconic doll, Rachel&#8217;s all-natural waist-to-hip ratio of 0.55 is just one of her many claims to fame. This Chinese Canadian sensation is an international supermodel, sought-after beauty queen, influencer with viral success, and rising actress.<br />
Rachel&#8217;s accolades speak volumes about her influence in the modeling world. She was honored with the 2024 Influential Model of The Year Award by the International Celebrity Awards during the Cannes Film Festival. She also secured the 3rd place for Best Female Model 2023, awarded by Waves and Runways Magazine and International Fashion Magazine, and won the Fashion &amp; Style People’s Choice Award at the Toronto Waterfront Awards.<br />
Her success extends beyond the runway to the pageant stage. Rachel first captured the title of Mrs. China USA in January 2023, followed by Mrs. Photogenic at the 35th Asia USA, Europe Global &amp; Latina Global in November 2023, and was crowned Ms. Canada World in 2024.<br />
As a global influencer, Rachel leverages her extensive network to promote the International Peace Festival, originally initiated in Toronto, and now expanding globally under her guidance as VP of Global Development. Her influence isn&#8217;t just limited to modeling and pageantry; Rachel is also making waves in Hollywood. Represented by Firestone Talent Management in Hollywood and Rasta Phil Entertainment in Canada, she has caught the attention of famous Hollywood producers like Ceci Cleary and Andy Gould. Hollywood heavyweights are not the only ones captivated by Rachel. Steve Erhardt, Michael Jackson’s longtime hair &amp; makeup artist, took Rachel under his wing, mentoring her and preparing her for the fame that she is quickly amassing.<br />
Rachel’s journey from politics to fashion is nothing short of inspiring. Discovered in July 2022 at a Toronto fashion show, she quickly transitioned from a career in politics and journalism to the glitz and glam of the runway. By October 2022, she was modeling alongside Miss Toronto and Miss Hong Kong and working for brands like L&#8217;Oréal Redken.<br />
Her transition into Hollywood was marked by her participation in the LA Model Showcase, where she competed against much younger models and secured a three-year contract with Bounty Models in Beverly Hills, a testament to her talent and perseverance. Before her meteoric rise, Rachel’s life was rooted in hard work and determination. An MBA graduate from the University of Ottawa, she built a career in Canadian politics, holding significant roles such as Chief of Staff for a Member of Provincial Parliament and federal election campaign manager. Her journey from political aid to the brand ambassador for major couture brands like KH Luxury and Berri’N Couture highlights her versatility and relentless drive. Rachel&#8217;s stunning presence has been featured in prestigious publications worldwide, including Grazia, Daily Mail, InStyle Magazine, ExtraTV, and Yahoo News. Her impeccable style and eye-catching figure make her a standout at star-studded events like the Elton John Oscar bash and the Primetime Emmys Governors Ball. A video of her at the 75th Emmys Governors Ball went viral, amassing 12 million views on TikTok and Instagram within three months.<br />
Rachel continues to break barriers and inspire women everywhere, with a career defined by a pattern of overcoming obstacles and achieving greatness. With audiences demanding more diversity in talent, Rachel Song&#8217;s future is undoubtedly bright, promising new heights for her and those who follow in her footsteps.</p>

<p>Horse is <b>this year’s zodiac (2026)</b>, and the <b>7th animal</b> in the 12-year cycle of the <a href="https://chinesenewyear.net/zodiac/">Chinese zodiac signs</a>, coming after the <a href="https://chinesenewyear.net/zodiac/snake/">Snake</a> and before the <a href="https://chinesenewyear.net/zodiac/goat/">Goat</a>. Recent years of the Horse include 2026, 2014, 2002, 1990, 1978, 1966, and 1954, with the <b>next Horse year in 2038</b> (Year of the Earth Horse). It is associated with the <a href="https://chinesenewyear.net/heavenly-stems-and-earthly-branches/">earthly branch</a> sign of <i>wu</i>.</p>
<p>According to Chinese astrology, Horse is confident, agreeable, and responsible, although they also tend to dislike being reined in by others. They’re fit and intelligent, adoring physical and mental exertion; they’re decisive but also easily swayed and impatient.</p>
<h2 id="chinese-zodiac-years-for-horse">Chinese Zodiac Years for Horse</h2>
<p>The Chinese zodiacs, like many aspects of traditional Chinese culture, are derived from the <a href="https://chinesenewyear.net/calendar/">Chinese lunar calendar</a>, which does not correspond exactly with the Gregorian calendar. You can use our calculator below to quickly find your sign.</p>
<p>For those born in January or February, pay special attention to when the <a href="https://chinesenewyear.net/">Chinese New Year</a> begins, as your zodiac animal sign may fall in the previous year’s cycle (see the chart below).</p>

<h2>Meaning of the Fire Horse in Lunar New Year (2026)</h2>
<p>The Lunar New Year of 2026 marks the Year of the Fire Horse in the Chinese zodiac cycle.</p>
<p>In Chinese astrology:</p>
<p>The Horse symbolizes energy, freedom, speed, and strong spirit.</p>
<p>The Fire element represents passion, intensity, ambition, and leadership.</p>
<p>When combined, the Fire Horse represents:</p>
<p>Powerful drive and determination</p>
<p>Boldness and independence</p>
<p>Charisma and strong personality</p>
<p>Fast-moving change and dynamic energy</p>
<p>A Fire Horse year is often seen as a time of action, transformation, and high motivation. However, because both Horse and Fire are very strong energies, it can also bring impulsiveness or dramatic shifts.</p>
<p>In short, the Lunar New Year Fire Horse symbolizes a year of passion, courage, and powerful forward movement.</p>

<p class="dcr-130mj7b">As the lunar new year begins, the focus has turned to the Chinese zodiac and the arrival of the year of the fire horse – a rare pairing in the 60-year lunar cycle.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Drawing on Chinese metaphysics, the fire horse blends the horse’s reputation for energy and independence with the intensity of the fire element, giving it a distinct place in the zodiac tradition.</p>

<h2 id="what-is-the-chinese-zodiac-and-the-five-elements" class="dcr-bry4uv">What is the Chinese zodiac and the five elements?</h2>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">The Chinese zodiac is a 12-year cycle in which each year is represented by an animal sign: rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. With roots in ancient lunar calendar traditions, the system places certain personality traits under various birth years.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Alongside the animals, Chinese astrology incorporates the five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal and water. These elements rotate with the zodiac animals, creating a 60-year cycle. Each element is believed to influence one’s traits and destiny.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">“The metaphysical theory is that everything on this Earth, including humans, are made up of these five elements and then within these elements, there are yin and yang versions,” the holistic Chinese astrologer Lydia Lee says.</p>
</div>
<div data-spacefinder-role="nested">
<hr class="dcr-1peeo35" />
<h2 id="how-and-when-does-the-fire-horse-occur" class="dcr-bry4uv">How and when does the fire horse occur?</h2>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Once every 60 years, the fire horse is created by pairing the horse with the fire element.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">The Chinese zodiac system combines 12 animal signs with the 10 heavenly stems, or 10 symbols that represent the five elements, each in yin and yang forms.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">As the animal signs and elements rotate together year by year, every zodiac year is assigned an animal and element. A fire horse year is often described as being fast-moving and high-energy. The last fire horse was in 1966, when China’s Cultural Revolution began, a time of political and social upheaval.</p>

<h2 id="what-are-the-personality-traits-of-the-fire-horse" class="dcr-bry4uv">What are the personality traits of the fire horse?</h2>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">People born in horse years are forthright, strong in reasoning and alert, says Ming Shao, a Melbourne-based feng shui expert. “They are also eloquent … and known for being impatient, wilful [and] heroic individuals,” he says. Adding fire “intensifies” the horse’s characteristics including dynamism, energy, dedication and leadership, according to Shao.</p>

<h2 id="what-is-predicted-for-the-fire-horse-year" class="dcr-bry4uv">What is predicted for the fire horse year?</h2>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Experts say the fire horse year is widely expected to bring intense, fast-paced change on a personal and global level.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Xiaohuan Zhao, a professor in Chinese studies at the University of Sydney, says “rather than predicting disaster, traditional readings frame the fire horse year as a period where heightened energy needs to be managed wisely”.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">“Slowing down before making major decisions, staying grounded, and cultivating emotional steadiness are … key ways to navigate the year’s momentum”, he adds.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Grace Niu, a Sydney-based feng shui consultant, also suggests caution, saying that the fire horse year amplifies every natural trait to an intense degree, resulting in “unstoppable drive [and] immense passion … but like a wildfire, that energy must be directed or it can burn through everything – including themselves”.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Pan Wang, an associate professor of Chinese studies at the University of New South Wales, says that based on historical patterns, the fire horse year is predicted to be a challenging period marked by upheaval. “The fire element can manifest as instability and violence, as well as heated economic development and rapid, sometimes reckless, growth.”</p>
</div>
<div data-spacefinder-role="nested">
<hr class="dcr-1peeo35" />
<h2 id="could-any-industries-zodiac-signs-or-age-groups-be-especially-affected" class="dcr-bry4uv">Could any industries, zodiac signs or age groups be especially affected?</h2>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">According to Zhao, industries “connected with movement, heat or rapid change such as technology, finance, transportation, energy and entertainment may feel the fire horse year’s fast and intense pace more strongly”.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">In Chinese astrology, the fire horse and those with rat signs are considered a challenging match: the horse’s impulsive, high-energy nature clashes with the rat’s cautious and strategic approach. Other zodiac signs expected to be most affected by the fire horse include the rabbit and the ox.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">But not all clashes are bad. For Lee, clashes in energy can bring vital change. “When we experience our lives being stagnant … we actually welcome clashes because it can be transformed into breakthroughs,” she says.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Niu says people entering new life chapters, such as those turning 30, 42, or 60 years old, may find the energy creating a profound rite of passage.</p>
</div>
<div data-spacefinder-role="nested">
<hr class="dcr-1peeo35" />
<h2 id="whats-the-best-way-to-navigate-the-year" class="dcr-bry4uv">What&#8217;s the best way to navigate the year?</h2>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">The key is to stay grounded. Balancing the fire with water-element practices such as slowing down, meditating and hydrating can help, the Sydney-based feng shui expert Mina Zheng says.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Everybody will experience too much fire, she says, adding: “We need to drink a lot more water, more than before, and we also need to cherish water.”</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Zheng highlights the balancing power of the earth element to help offset fire. She recommends eating more earthy root vegetables like potatoes and carrots.</p>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Thierry Chow, a Hong Kong-based feng shui expert,<strong> </strong>suggests wearing certain colours. She says those born in the summer months should “wear more cool tones to help balance out the heavy fire … such as silver, gold, blue and white”.</p>
</div>
<div data-spacefinder-role="nested">
<hr class="dcr-1peeo35" />
<h2 id="is-the-fire-horse-something-to-fear" class="dcr-bry4uv">Is the fire horse something to fear?</h2>
<p class="dcr-130mj7b">Definitely do not fear, Pan says. “I think the fire horse is a self-paradoxical year: it can bring extreme success, such as rapid career progression, but it can also be extremely challenging if one burns out or succumbs to anxiety, which may lead to failure. That said, if we harness the fire horse well, there’s nothing to fear. Embrace the challenge and find a balance!”</p>

<p>Origin</p>
<p>There are several beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival. However, its roots trace back more than 2,000 years and is popularly linked to the reign of <a title="Emperor Wen of Han" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Wen_of_Han">Emperor Wen</a> of the <a title="Han dynasty" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Han_dynasty">Han dynasty</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Stepanchuk_Mooncakes_and_Hungry_Ghosts_Lantern_Festival_12-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-Stepanchuk_Mooncakes_and_Hungry_Ghosts_Lantern_Festival-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Emperor Ming, an advocate of Buddhism, noticed Buddhist <a title="Monk" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monk">monks</a> would light lanterns in temples on the <a title="Uposatha" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uposatha">fifteenth day of the first lunisolar month</a>. As a result, he ordered all households, <a title="Temple" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple">temples</a> and the imperial palace to light lanterns on that evening.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> From there it developed into a folk custom. Another likely origin is the celebration of &#8220;the declining darkness of winter&#8221; and community&#8217;s ability to &#8220;move about at night with human-made light,&#8221; namely, lanterns. During the Han dynasty, the festival was connected to Ti Yin, the deity of the <a title="Polaris" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polaris">North Star</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Melton_1-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-Melton-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>

<p>There is one legend that states that it was a time to worship <a title="Chinese theology" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_theology#Taiyi">Taiyi</a>, the God of Heaven in ancient times. The belief was that Taiyi controlled the destiny of the human world. He had sixteen <a title="Chinese dragon" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_dragon">dragons</a> at his beck and call and he decided when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings. Beginning with <a title="Qin Shi Huang" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qin_Shi_Huang">Qin Shi Huang</a>, the first emperor of China, all the emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Birmingham_Lantern_Festival_5-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-Birmingham_Lantern_Festival-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p><a title="Emperor Wu of Han" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Wu_of_Han">Emperor Wu</a> of the <a title="Han dynasty" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Han_dynasty">Han dynasty</a> directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he proclaimed it to be one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would last throughout the night.</p>
<p>Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with <a title="Taoism" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taoism">Taoism</a>. <a class="mw-redirect" title="Tianguan" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tianguan">Tianguan</a> is the Taoist deity responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the fifteenth day of the first lunisolar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which they pray for good fortune.<sup id="cite_ref-wollombismallfarmsfair.com.au_15-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-wollombismallfarmsfair.com.au-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>Another legend associates with the Lantern Festival with an ancient warrior named Lan Moon, who led a rebellion against the tyrannical king in <a title="History of China" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_China">ancient China</a>. He was killed in the storming of the city and the successful rebels commemorated the festival in his name.<sup id="cite_ref-wollombismallfarmsfair.com.au_15-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-wollombismallfarmsfair.com.au-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival speaks of a beautiful crane that flew down to earth from heaven. After it landed on earth it was hunted and killed by some villagers. This angered the <a title="Jade Emperor" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jade_Emperor">Jade Emperor</a> in heaven because the crane was his favorite. So, he planned a storm of fire to destroy the village on the fifteenth lunisolar day. The Jade Emperor&#8217;s daughter warned the inhabitants of her father&#8217;s plan to destroy their village. The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how they could escape their imminent destruction. However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and explode firecrackers on the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth lunisolar days. This would give the village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the fifteenth lunisolar day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village. From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the fifteenth lunisolar day every year by carrying lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and fireworks.<sup id="cite_ref-the_origin_of_Lantern_Festival_16-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-the_origin_of_Lantern_Festival-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>Another legend about the origins of Lantern Festival involves a maid named Yuan-Xiao. In the Han dynasty, <a title="Dongfang Shuo" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dongfang_Shuo">Dongfang Shuo</a> was a favorite adviser of the emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Shuo stopped her and asked why. She said she was Yuan-Xiao, a maid in the emperor&#8217;s palace and that she never had a chance to see her family since she started working there. If she could not have the chance to show her <a title="Filial piety" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filial_piety">filial piety</a> in this life, she would rather die. Shuo promised to find a way to reunite her with her family. Shuo left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street. Due to his reputation, many people asked for their fortunes to be told but everyone got the same prediction – a calamitous fire on the fifteenth lunisolar day. The rumor spread quickly.<sup id="cite_ref-wollombismallfarmsfair.com.au_15-2" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-wollombismallfarmsfair.com.au-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>Everyone was worried about the future so they asked Dongfang Shuo for help. Dongfang Shuo said that on the thirteenth lunisolar day, the God of Fire would send a fairy in red riding a black horse to burn down the city. When people saw the fairy they should ask for her mercy. On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy. When people asked for her help, she said that she had a copy of a decree from the God of Fire that should be taken to the emperor. After she left, people went to the palace to show the emperor the decree which stated that the capital city would burn down on the fifteenth. When the emperor asked Dongfang Shuo for advice, the latter said that the God of Fire liked to eat <i><a title="Tangyuan (food)" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangyuan_(food)">tangyuan</a></i> (sweet dumplings). Yuan-Xiao should cook <i>tangyuan</i> on the fifteenth lunisolar day and the emperor should order every house to prepare <i>tangyuan</i> to worship the God of Fire at the same time. Also, every house in the city should hang red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern decorations and fireworks. The Jade Emperor would be deceived and everyone would avoid the disastrous fire.<sup id="cite_ref-the_origin_of_Lantern_Festival_16-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-the_origin_of_Lantern_Festival-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>The emperor happily followed the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the fifteenth lunisolar day and people were walking on the street and there were noisy firecrackers. It looked as if the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiao&#8217;s parents went into the palace to watch the lantern decorations and were reunited with their daughter. The emperor decreed that people should do the same thing every year. Since Yuan-Xiao cooked the best <i>tangyuan</i>, people called the day Yuan-Xiao Festival.</p>
<p>For each festival celebrated, a switch in the Chinese Zodiac takes place. For example, 2022—the year of the tiger; 2023—the year of the rabbit (water rabbit); and so on.</p>

<p>In the early days, young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love. Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer has such implications in most of Mainland China, Taiwan, or Hong Kong.<sup id="cite_ref-travelchinaguide.com_10-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-travelchinaguide.com-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>

<p>Eaten during the Lantern Festival, tangyuan &#8216;湯圓&#8217; (Southern China, Taiwan and Southeast Asia) or yuanxiao &#8216;元宵&#8217; (Northern China) is a glutinous rice ball typically filled with sweet red bean paste, sesame paste, or peanut butter.<sup id="cite_ref-McDowell_3-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-McDowell-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Tangyuan is different from yuanxiao due to different manual making and filling processes.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_17-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-:0-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It can be boiled, fried or steamed, each has independent taste.

<p><strong>6th century and afterwards</strong></p>
<p>During the <a title="Sui dynasty" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sui_dynasty">Sui dynasty</a> in the sixth century, <a title="Emperor Yang of Sui" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Yang_of_Sui">Emperor Yang</a> invited envoys from other countries to China to see the colourful lighted lanterns and enjoy the gala performances.<sup id="cite_ref-Ning_18-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-Ning-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>By the beginning of the <a title="Tang dynasty" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tang_dynasty">Tang dynasty</a> in the seventh century, the lantern displays would last three days. The emperor also lifted the curfew, allowing the people to enjoy the festive lanterns day and night. It is not difficult to find Chinese poems which describe this happy scene.<sup id="cite_ref-Ning_18-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-Ning-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>In the <a title="Song dynasty" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_dynasty">Song dynasty</a>, the festival was celebrated for five days<sup id="cite_ref-Stepanchuk_Mooncakes_and_Hungry_Ghosts_Lantern_Festival_12-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-Stepanchuk_Mooncakes_and_Hungry_Ghosts_Lantern_Festival-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the activities began to spread to many of the big cities in China.</p>
<p>Today, displaying lanterns remains a major tradition across China on the fifteenth day of the first lunisolar month. <a title="Chengdu" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chengdu">Chengdu</a> in southwest China&#8217;s <a title="Sichuan" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sichuan">Sichuan</a> Province, for example, holds a lantern fair each year in Culture Park. During the Lantern Festival, the park is a virtual ocean of lanterns. Many new designs attract large numbers of visitors. The most eye-catching lantern is the Dragon Pole. This is a lantern in the shape of a golden dragon, spiraling up a 38-meter-high pole, spewing fireworks from its mouth. Cities such as <a title="Hangzhou" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hangzhou">Hangzhou</a> and <a title="Shanghai" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai">Shanghai</a> have adopted electric and neon lanterns, which can often be seen beside their traditional paper or wooden counterparts. Another popular activity at this festival is guessing lantern riddles,<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> a tradition which dates back to the Song dynasty.<sup id="cite_ref-Wei_Chinese_Festivals_Yuanxiao_Festival_20-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-Wei_Chinese_Festivals_Yuanxiao_Festival-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p><a title="Lion dance" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion_dance">Lion dance</a> (<span title="Chinese-language text"><span lang="zh">舞獅</span></span>), walk on stilts (<span title="Chinese-language text"><span lang="zh">踩高蹺</span></span>), riddle games (<span title="Chinese-language text"><span lang="zh">猜燈謎</span></span>), dragon dances (<span title="Chinese-language text"><span lang="zh">耍龍燈</span></span>) are very popular activities during the festival day and the days following.</p>
<p>The lantern riddle, according to Japanese scholars, became popular as early as the Northern Song dynasty (960–1126). The lantern riddles are done by a host blocking one side of the lantern and pasting riddles on the remaining three sides of the lanterns. Participants will guess the blocked side by solving the riddles, which is called &#8220;breaking/solving lantern riddles&#8221;. The theme of riddles can be drawn from classics, biographies, poetry, the various philosophers&#8217; well-known stories and novels, proverbs, (the names of) all kinds of birds, animals, and insects, as well as flowers, grasses, vegetables, and herbs. Participants can tear off the riddle of the lantern and let the host verify their answers. Those who answer the correct answer can get a &#8220;riddle reward&#8221;, including ink, paper, writing brushes, ink slabs, fans, perfumed sachets, fruit, or eatables.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lantern_Festival#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
