In China numerology is commonplace and is more than just superstition, it\u2019s a lifestyle!<\/p>

Lucky number have pronunciations that are similar to words with lucky meanings.<\/p>

8 is the luckiest number in Chinese culture because his pronunciation \u201cBa\u201d sounds similar to the word \u201cfa\u201d, which means to make fortune. The number 8 is associated with wealth, prosperity, success and status and for this reason business men favor it very much.<\/p>

Numbers have always played a significant role in Chinese culture: in some areas of China people prefer to pay much more money for a telephone number with 8 in it or, for example, they favor residences on the eights floor of buildings.<\/p>

Maybe the best example that shows how Chinese love the number 8 is the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games: the opening ceremony commenced exactly at 8 minutes and 8 seconds past 8 pm on the 8th August, the 8th month of the 8th year of the 21st century.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
