Golden Tortoise Mobile Hanging

A cute mobile hanging featuring a mini golden tortoise with a round jingle bell.

In Chinese mythology, while the Crane is believed to be able to live at least one thousand years feeding only on water, the Tortoise is even more impressive; it can survive three times longer than that! It is for this reason that it is a popular symbol of longevity, and is highly demanded by many who wish to live long healthy lives. The term 'age of tortoise' is used in Chinese culture to mean the longevity of a human being. A Taoist scholar and alchemist in the Han Dynasty, Ge Hong wrote in "the Master who embraces simplicity" that "if the shell of a thousand-year-old tortoise can first be obtained and later consumed through alchemy, one will be able to attain longevity". The Tortoise is also a feng shui representation of protection and immunity to bad intentions.

The tortoise, being one of the four celestial animals (among the Dragon, Phoenix and Tiger), is much revered by the Chinese and Feng Shui followers as a creator of solidity, sustenance and perseverance. As an essential item in landscape Feng Shui, those who display a Tortoise in the North sector of their home or office will reap the many rewards that this celestial creature has to offer.

Hang this to your handphone or mobile for a sprinkle of health energy.
