An ancient custom holds: "On the day of the Minor Fullness of Grain (Mangzhong), all sorts of offerings are made to bid farewell to the Flower Deities. It is said that once Mangzhong passes, summer begins, all flowers wither, and the Flower Deities retire, requiring a farewell ceremony. This custom was particularly cherished by women. The residents of the Grand View Garden would wake early. The young ladies would craft sedan chairs and horses from flower petals and willow branches, or fashion banners and standards from brocade and fine silk, all tied with colorful threads. These adornments were attached to every tree and every branch. The garden was filled with fluttering embroidered ribbons and swaying floral branches, enhanced by the women themselves, whose beauty rivaled the flowers, making the swallows and orioles envious. It was a scene beyond description." — Dream of the Red Chamber, Chapter 27 - It's like this: the vibrant colors of blooming flowers, your yearning heart in spring, your deep feelings in autumn—it all stems from your worthiness. Sometimes, we desperately need a subtle hint. Sometimes, that elusive fate we can't articulate is precisely the fate we're unwilling to acknowledge. Let us shake the oracle bamboo, and let randomness take control. Your belief in the existence of a feeling is just as valid as your belief in its absence. - Contents: Tang & Song Dynasty Poetry and Reinterpreted Oracle Meanings Paper: Glassine paper Technique: Hot stamping Size: 5 x 15 cm Packaging: Imported Japanese OPP clear bag Printed in Taiwan About Shipping After payment, it takes 1-2 business days to prepare and ship the product, excluding holidays.
