Description from the seller
Hongshan Amulet of the Two Celestial Dragons: Solar Power & Eternal Harmony.
Circular talisman amulet in Hongshan style (Chinese Neolithic) carved, depicting two Celestial Dragons facing each other around a solar disk.
The alliance of the celestial guardians for absolute protection and perfect balance.
A piece intended for sovereign spirits who cultivate inner harmony and strengthen their natural authority.
In ancestral cosmology, the Dragon is the master of the Vital Breath (Qi) and the guardian of the East. It embodies the power of transformation and the ascent towards the light.
This amulet channels this primordial force through two facing dragons that guard the Sun Disk. They form a virtuous circle, an impenetrable barrier that contains and amplifies your personal energy.
It acts as a powerful regulator. It harmonizes opposing forces (Yin and Yang), dissolves blockages, and establishes unshakable stability around its bearer, promoting continuous and protected growth.
Serpentine group. Beautiful patina.
Dimensions: 51.8*53*12.5mm.
Weight: 46.28g.
This artifact is inspired by the ritual jades of the Hongshan culture (4700-2900 BC), one of the earliest civilizations to worship the Dragon as a god.
The Keeper of the Pearl (Le Disque Bi)
The center of the amulet represents the 'Bi', the celestial disk, or the Pearl of Wisdom. In mythology, dragons eternally pursue this pearl, which symbolizes immortality, spiritual truth, and thunder energy. Here, they protect it, signifying that the bearer possesses wisdom and that it is well guarded.
The Harmonious Duality
The presence of two dragons creates perfect symmetry. It evokes the balance of forces in the universe. This is not conflict, but cooperation. They represent the fusion of Heaven (the upper) and Earth (the lower), ensuring that the bearer remains grounded while elevating their spirit. It is the ultimate talisman of longevity and dynastic success.
The Stone of Blood and Earth
This sculpture is made from a stone with red and brown hues, evoking the vital elements of Earth and Fire. In tradition, these colors are used to enhance physical health, stimulate courage, and anchor spiritual blessings into material reality. The patina of the object bears witness to this connection to deep time.
