DID YOU KNOW?
- Years of the Rabbit: According to the Chinese zodiac, you’re a Rabbit if you were born in 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011 and 2023.
- The legend of the Jade (Moon) Rabbit: If you look up at the full moon, some of the shadows on the surface seem to form the outline of a rabbit with a mortar and pestle. There are a few different versions of the legend of the Jade or Moon Rabbit (also known as the Gold Rabbit), but according to one story, the rabbit was rewarded with immortality after it selflessly offered itself as food. The Jade Rabbit is said to live in Moon Palace with Chang’e, the goddess of the moon, whose origin story is associated with the annual Mid-Autumn Festival. The Jade Rabbit is often portrayed pounding the elixir of life while standing under a cinnamon (cassia) tree, which is thought to symbolize abundance and perpetual growth.
DESIGN & ARTIST
Inspired by the Chinese legend of the Jade Rabbit, the reverse design by artist Aries Cheung celebrates the Year of the Rabbit by showing the zodiac animal in a composed stance. Water is the dominant element in 2023 and it is represented by windmill-like wave patterns—the “wind” and “water” that is feng shui, which helps bring about more health and prosperity. In addition to these waves, wing-like motifs adorn the Rabbit’s ears and shoulders. Flowering plants and cinnamon leaves appear on one side of the Rabbit, while Moon Palace—the residence of Chang’e, the goddess of the moon—appears on the other side, where it is surrounded by auspicious cloud patterns. The reverse includes the word “CANADA”, the Chinese character for “Rabbit”, the year “2023” and the face value, “100 DOLLARS”. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
“The element for 2023 being Water, this majestic Rabbit channels the energy of the feng shui (wind-water) wheels that bring us health, comfort and fortune.” - ARIES CHEUNG, ARTIST
