A traditional Cai Qing performance will bring you good fortune! Cai Qing, or "plucking the greens", is a traditional Chinese performance that is a key part of lion dance celebrations, particularly during the Chinese New Year. The ritual involves performers dressed in lion costumes mimicking the movements of a lion as they "pluck" greens, typically lettuce, which are often hung from poles or placed on tables.
