Fu Xing is a star that the ancient Chinese thought was in charge of agriculture in China. Today, Fu Xing is generally shown as a court official with a characteristically "winged" hat, and often with a scepter in his hand. |
The Lu star is believed to be Zhang Xian who lived during the Later Shu dynasty. The word "luk" specifically refers to the salary of a government official. As such, the Lu star is the star of prosperity, rank, and influence. |
This character Shou represents 'long life'. According to Chinese folklore, Longevity is described as wise, knowledgeable and capable of ruling the world. During festivals, a Chinese family normally worships the symbols or pictures of Longevity to express gratitude for granting the elders in the family a long life. This Shou statue will bring you a 'long and fruitful life'. |
