The 12 Grapes of Luck is a centuries-old New Year’s Eve tradition from Spain that has taken over TikTok. TikTok users believe the secret to a great year begins with 12 grapes.
12 Grapes Trend on TikTok:
TikTok users worldwide participate in the 12 Grapes fad to bring good fortune in the new year. To participate in the tradition, the individual must wait until the final few minutes of December 31. Believers also advise participants to wear anything red while doing the ritual. On New Year’s Eve, around 11.58 p.m., the person grabs at most minuscule 12 grapes and hides under a table. Twelve of the person’s desires and manifestations are concentrated in the grapes at hand.
The participant has only three minutes to finish the tradition. During those three minutes, the person consumes one grape every time the New Year’s Eve bell rings. The bell usually rings at least 12 times, and the participant is expected to have eaten the 12 grapes by 12.01 am on January 1. The participant might then emerge from beneath the table. The 12 grapes signify the total number of months in a year and are thought to grant the person’s 12 wishes.
What do sour grapes represent?
A sour grape is one of the 12 grapes a hopeful person consumes to have a prosperous new year. According to legend, eating a sour grape can result in a bad month. A bad month is expected for every sour grape they ingest. The person will allegedly be able to predict which month it will depend on the number of grapes they have already consumed. For example, if the participant ate three sweet grapes followed by one sour grape, the corresponding sour month is April.
