and we are in the year of the Rabbit.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/chinesenewyear.net\/zodiac\/rabbit\/\">Rabbit<\/a> is the fourth of all zodiac animals. Legend has it the Rabbit was proud\u2014arrogant even\u2014of its speed. He was neighbors with Ox and always made fun of how slow Ox was. One day, the Jade Emperor said the zodiac order would be decided by the order in which the animals arrived at his party. Rabbit set off at daybreak. But when he got there, no other animals were in sight. Thinking that he would obviously be first, he went off to the side and napped. However, when he woke up, three other animals had already arrived. One of them was the Ox he had always looked down upon.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In Chinese culture, one believes that the Rabbit represents the moon, for its purity.
