À propos de ce contenu audio

In this New Year's episode of Arcane Answers, host Larry and co-hosts Amanda and Sarah discuss various global traditions and superstitions for ringing in the new year. The group explores historical roots, such as Julius Caesar establishing January 1st as the start of the year in honor of the two-faced god Janus , and dives into diverse cultural practices like eating twelve grapes in Spain for luck or wearing specific colors of underwear in Latin America to attract wealth or love. They also detail a wide array of symbolic foods, ranging from Japan’s longevity-granting soba noodles to the American South’s "Hoppin' John" and the seven lucky gods of Japanese mythology. The episode concludes with a list of foods to avoid, such as lobster and chicken—which supposedly "move backwards" and sweep away good fortune —while Sarah encourages everyone to smash a pomegranate for future blessings.
