The meaning of this piece · 寓意

Nine-Tailed Fox Lightning-Struck Wood Taoist Pendant

Some symbols are made in pairs. The dragon and the phoenix, the two fish of yin and yang, the auspicious fox of the old odes — each is a wish that two things find one another and stay in harmony.

九尾— Nine-Tailed Fox

In early Chinese lore the nine-tailed fox was an auspicious omen linked to marriage and abundant family life.

Traditionally kept as a wish for love and harmony.

Look first at the main motif of the nine tails radiating relief medallion. Its place in the Daojing collection reflects the use of ornament and inscription to carry a personal intention. Choose the particular design that speaks to the occasion, rather than assuming every motif has the same devotional use.

Think about where the pendant will fall when worn. The length of a pendant and the length of its cord are different measurements. If you intend to use your own chain, compare the fitting with its clasp before choosing.

Listed by the maker as lightning-struck jujube wood, carved entirely by hand. Lightning-struck jujube is the most prized wood for Taoist ritual objects, because the strike is associated with thunder’s power to restore order.

In Taoist culture, motifs like these express a wish — here, love and harmony. We share their traditional meaning as culture and intention, not as a guarantee of any outcome.
