The overflowing milk deeply signifies an abundance of wealth good health and overflowing joy for the entire household in the coming year. It is considered highly unlucky if the milk does not boil over properly.

Locals light a brand new hearth inside their home and place a fresh clay pot filled with milk over the fire. They wait patiently until the milk vigorously boils and cascades perfectly over the sides.
