Comment

The year 2015 belongs to the sheep. This creative animal lives under the sign of wealth, warmth and tenderness. Fundamentally good-natured, the sheep seems to naturally attract good things. It rarely speaks its mind and tends to follow others, but will oppose things that don't suit it. If you upset the sheep, it will react... and with a vengeance. The gregarious sheep is an eternal romantic, and loves to be showered with love and attention.

The Sheep also ruled the years 1907, 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991 and 2003. However, those born in January and February should consult the Chinese lunar calendar, as the New Year does not always correspond to January 1. According to Chinese custom, the Spring Festival marks the first day of the New Year, and this date changes from year to year according to the lunar cycle and the solar year.

L'année 2015 appartient au mouton. Cet animal créatif vit sous le signe de la richesse, de la chaleur et de la tendresse. De nature foncièrement bonne, le mouton semble attirer naturellement les bonnes choses. Il dit rarement ce qu'il pense et il a tendance à suivre les autres, mais il s'opposera aux choses qui ne lui conviennent pas. Si vous contrariez le mouton, il réagira... et de pied ferme. Le mouton grégaire est un éternel romantique et il adore qu'on le couvre d'amour et d'attention.

Le mouton a également régné sur les années 1907, 1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991 et 2003. Toutefois, les personnes nées en janvier et en février devraient consulter le calendrier lunaire chinois, car le Nouvel An ne correspond pas systématiquement au 1er janvier. Selon la coutume chinoise, c'est plutôt la fête du Printemps qui marque le premier jour du nouvel an, et cette date change d'une année à l'autre en fonction du cycle lunaire et de l'année solaire.

Emballage
La pièce est encapsulée et présentée dans un boîtier doré et satiné assorti d'un fourreau rouge spécialement conçu.
