The meaning of this piece · 寓意

Octagonal Open-Center Bagua Taoist Pendant

Before the trigrams there was the Taiji, and before the Taiji, the Dao. Every Taoist emblem is a small map of that order: heaven above, earth below, and the changing forces that move between them.

Bagua refers to the eight trigrams. Look for arrangements of three-line signs; these are a different motif from the paired curves of a yin-yang disk.

The eight trigrams are arrangements of broken and unbroken lines. In a Taoist setting, the bagua can be chosen as a protective emblem for a household; the arrangement of the lines also gives the design its distinctive rhythm.

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.

Material: 925 silver.

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