What Does My Jade Mean: 2018 Chinese Year of the Dog

Chinese Lantern Festival is over, and we don't hear much about it because here in America, it's all about Christmas.  This is a photo a friend in Ohio sent:

It's a beautiful, cultural festival, lots of lanterns and light shows to enjoy.

After our Western Christmas and New Year, Chinese New Year begins February 16.  It will be the Year of the Earth Dog.  Dog. 狗Gǒu. Ranking as the eleventh animal in Chinese zodiac, Dog is the symbol of loyalty and honesty. People born in the Year of the Dog possess the best traits of human nature. They are honest, friendly, faithful, loyal, smart, straightforward, venerable and have a strong sense of responsibility.  And Earth element keeps it very "down to earth". 

There are still very limited quantity and best quality jade Dog pendants on the web site, the "old mine" good green with price to match. Customers have been buying them for several weeks now, gifting for Christmas to get ready to celebrate the Lunar New Year.   But we dog lovers usually don't scrimp when it come to our love of Dog.

I was very touched when the customers buying these jade dog pendants told me that they were buying them for their dog, not for a person to wear as a pendant. 

But we all know jade is so versatile, interesting, and fun to wear, even for dogs.
