Star Moon Bodhi Seed
* Focus * Wisdom * Protection * Inner peace *
Star Moon Bodhi Seeds are a specific type of bodhi bead, usually made from aged star and moon seeds, with a unique deep red surface and texture. Each Star Moon Bodhi Seed has a sunken circle on it, resembling a moon, surrounded by evenly spaced dots, like stars. This unique pattern is the result of a complex manufacturing process, with each bead being polished multiple times to give it a smooth and refined finish. Star Moon Bodhi Seeds are valued for their beauty and rich texture, and are often used to make prayer beads that help practitioners focus during chanting and meditation. Not only are they visually striking, they also carry deep spiritual meaning, symbolizing wisdom, protection, and inner peace.
What is the Chinese Zodiac?
The Chinese Yinyang principle consists of a 12-year cycle, each year of which is named after a different animal that imparts distinct characteristics to its year. Many Chinese believe that the year of a person's birth is the primary factor in determining that person's personality traits, physical and mental attributes, and degree of success and happiness throughout one's lifetime. The ancient Yinyang principle constructed a fantastic system of 10 heavenly stems and 12 mundane branches. The latter corresponds to 12 animals with two symbolic functions. Each animal is mystically related to one year in a 12-year cycle. Each animal also represents two hours or one-twelfth of every day. A person's future is determined by this intriguing system. These twelve animals are Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig.
