Dear Friends,
According to some cultural historians, the tradition of kissing at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve dates back to old English and German folklore that held that the first person you encounter in the New Year is indicative of the luck that awaits you in the year ahead. Over time, this evolved to people ensuring that their loved ones were nearby, and the shared kiss came to symbolize the hope that love will last throughout the year.
Others contend that the kiss came about at masked balls held on New Year’s Eve. The masks represented evil spirits of the old year. At midnight the masks were removed, and revelers kissed as a way to purify the New Year.
May You Have All The Luck, Love You Want and a Pure 2009
