Happy Lunar New Year!
This month we are feeling inspired by the Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year, or the Spring Festival.
The Lunar New Year is one of the most important celebrations in Asian cultures. It is celebrated with traditions that symbolize abundance and togetherness. Homes are also cleaned to open space for good luck. Gifts are given, and red decorations are displayed. Moon shaped rice cakes are enjoyed as a treat.
Here at the Swan Princess the moon is a huge part of our story. For us, it is a symbol of transformation. Transformation is also the theme of some of our favorite Swan Princess products:
The Swan Princess transformation watch can change to match any outfit simply by swapping out the bands. There's five included so there's sure to be one for every occasion.

Its Puffin's birthday in February!
That makes his zodiac sign an Aquarius and his birthstone the amethyst.
Aquarius are assertive and love to be the ones to make plans. They love evidence and facts; they are always looking for truth, justice, and fairness. They are analytical which makes them led more by their heads than their hearts.
Aquarius are not afraid to be themselves. They are unique and a bit eccentric. They always say what they think and can be very flowery when they speak. Their biggest dislikes are stick-in-the-mud type people who don't want to go along with their plans.
Amethyst is considered the most powerful and protective stone. It is used to have control of one's own thoughts and mindfulness and can also protect against fearful feelings.
We think this No Fear attitude sounds just like General Puffin!

Question: It's shown at the beginning of the first movie that Derek is a little older than Odette since when she's a newborn baby he's old enough to walk. Exactly what is the age difference between Odette and Derek and how old were they in each of the stages of their life during the song This is My Idea?
Answer: At the beginning of the film when Prince Derek gives Princess Odette her famous swan heart locket, it was the summer after Odette's birth. She was born in November so she was around six months old. Derek was three and a half years old. When Derek, Bromley and Odette had their accident at the treehouse, Odette was 11 and Derek was 14. This makes Derek's age at the time of the marriage proposal 21 years and Odette 18 years.
Dear Diary:
So far so good on keeping to our new year’s resolutions! The hardest thing about them is that you expect to finish so much once you commit to it, but I have to remember I also have a whole year to complete it! I’m glad I have some time because honestly I’ve felt a little sick lately. Every morning I've woken up to some stomach trouble, but then I go about my day craving foods I normally wouldn’t. I got a lot of weird looks when I put chili powder on my chocolate ice cream, but it was just so good! The strangest thing of all is that Uberta seems happy I’m sick like this! Does she know something I don’t? Whatever it is, I hope it passes…
