60 Lunar New Year Captions To Make Your Instagram Feed So Lucky

Lunar New Year is coming up on Sunday, Jan. 22 this year, and it’s the time to invite luck in for a joyous 2023. Lunar New Year is a festival that starts on the first day of a new year, which coincides with the first new moon of the Lunar calendar. Festivities run through the first full moon of the calendar, which is about 15 days later, giving you plenty of opportunities to whip up specialty treats in your kitchen or take part in a beloved family tradition. If you snap some photos with the fam while partaking in these traditions, you'll need some Lunar New Year captions that'll make your feed feel equally festive.

The truth is, the brightly colored pictures from parades and firework shows will likely do most of the work. They'll stand out amongst the wintery selfies you took recently, and might even make your followers stop scrolling for a hot sec. The red decorations, loud music from the city streets, and loads of steaming dumplings will make them want to leave a comment on your Instagram feed. After all, Lunar New Year is basically a chance to use the firecracker and dragon emojis IRL to wish everyone a happy Lunar New Year.

It’s the Year of the Rabbit, which is the fourth and luckiest animal of the zodiac. It’s often associated with the moon for its pale white color and quiet purity. People born in the year of the rabbit are believed to be kind, gentle, confident, and graceful. It’s the perfect time to embrace your inner dragon by striking a pose for the ‘Gram alongside your favorite Lunar New Year dishes and maybe even taking some selfies showing off a traditional costume. Maybe you can even make your friends jealous by showing off all the red envelopes you got this year. However you celebrate, you’ll want some festive captions for your Lunar New Year pics to share with friends and family when you’re ready to post to attract good fortune.
