Yue Lao Collection | Rouge, Candy, Love Tree "The power to safeguard a lover's happiness ♡" **▲Please check our announcements for the latest shipping status before ordering▲** **▲For friends in Hong Kong and Macau, direct shipping is available only; we do not ship to Pinkoi's forwarding stations▲** **:: Brand Origin ::** Initially, during my daily Buddhist chanting, I used a mala made of 108 Palo Santo beads, which I also carried with me outdoors. The calming scent of Palo Santo that emanated from it brought me peace. My daughter often played with my mala, loving its aroma. So, one day, I used extra Palo Santo beads to make a bracelet for her. Seeing her reluctant to take it off, wearing it to school as if it held my companionship, inspired me to share this fragrant blessing with more people. **:: Yue Lao Collection ::** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51708736885_51ec33b716_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52202404169_138ff3dfb2_b.jpg The ancient Chinese character "系" (xì) is a homophone for "繫" (jì), meaning to tie or connect. "With a red string, tied to the feet of husband and wife, their actions are subtly bound together. Even between enemies, regardless of wealth or status, or if one's career takes them to the ends of the earth, or to foreign lands far apart, Once this string is tied, escape is impossible." The legend of Yue Lao, the Old Man Under the Moon, originates from the story written by Li Fuyan in the Tang Dynasty's __"Miscellaneous Records of the Mysterious and Strange. The Matchmaker's Shop"__. In the story, the young man Wei Gu, guided by the old man's matchmaking, eventually married the daughter of the vegetable seller, just as the old man had foretold years earlier. This passage suggests that men and women bound by a red string will ultimately become a couple, no matter if they are enemies, have vast differences in wealth, or are separated by thousands of miles. **:: Blessed by the Incense Burner at Xia Hai City God Temple ::** While preparing the materials for the Yue Lao Collection, I remembered that when I was lost in matters of the heart, after receiving a red string from Yue Lao, I found companionship and understanding with my current husband for 16 years. This sparked the idea for a special trip to Taipei with my daughter. I brought my materials to the Xia Hai City God Temple in Taipei to pay respects and have them blessed. Here are the photos taken by my 6-year-old daughter with her DSLR camera (the first one), capturing the happiness we wish to share with you. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51701493706_c6d1c6e0e1_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51701493841_304438d2ed_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51702381010_609b0a8083_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51702169364_fcb467c283_b.jpg May every wearer of this bracelet find peace and contentment ♡ **:: Two Beads ::** The Yue Lao Collection embodies the beautiful sentiment of the Yue Lao legend. Two Palo Santo beads are tied to the ends of the bracelet, encircling and meeting, symbolizing the unseen thread of destiny that connects two people. It signifies overcoming all obstacles to be together until old age. __In Tibetan Buddhism, the Vajra knot symbolizes the removal of obstacles, protection, and sacred treasures.__ The main cord is woven with a light, four-strand braid, finished with a Vajra knot that symbolizes connection with the Buddha. Each knot is woven with wax cord, imbued with blessings. Wearing it daily, especially when entering environments with low vibrational energy or crowded places with mixed energies, provides protective and blessing power for the sensitive souls among us, bringing spiritual stability and happiness. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51705434951_9a74d83a74_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52202159898_cc916b7e96_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51700695262_4ddf112dd1_b.jpg **:: Peruvian Palo Santo ::** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51710708260_7187424715_b.jpg __Made with genuine 8mm Peruvian Palo Santo round beads, each retaining its unique natural wood grain.__ __Rich in Palo Santo's natural oils, it emits a warm, heart-centering red wood aroma.__ Palo Santo possesses a serene, grounding energy. It is a sacred plant native to Central and South America, revered by the Inca Empire. The Spanish name "Palo Santo" literally means "holy wood." Historically, it has been highly respected in sacred spaces and rituals in the West, its uses second only to white sage. An Inca Palo Santo tree lives for about 80-90 years. Its branches naturally fall in the forest and undergo a transformation process over several years, allowing the heartwood to ferment and release oils, creating its unique, rich aroma. It is believed that Inca Palo Santo has potent purification and protective properties, can connect the mind, body, and spirit, and purify spaces. **[Please specify other colors in your order ♡]** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53249636877_a5da9e3303_h.jpg **[2 0 2 3 New Colors ♡]** For purchases, please visit https://www.pinkoi.com/product/gpKX5eKT https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53250877104_7bdd59c1ec_h.jpg **[Bracelet Sizing]** The bracelet is custom-made according to the wrist circumference you provide. When finishing, it will be placed on a model to confirm a comfortable, snug, or slightly loose fit. Using a thin string, measure around the narrowest part of your wrist, ensuring it's snug against your skin without pressing into it or leaving any gaps. Please do not add extra length. When providing your size, you can indicate if you prefer a "snug fit" or "slightly loose." The first time you fasten the end bead, it may require a bit of effort to open the clasp. **[Important Information Before Ordering]** **◇ Each batch of beads has unique patterns. The designer will select beads based on the existing stock and coordinate them with the bracelet's color. Specific wood grain patterns cannot be requested.** **◇ The luster, oils, and aroma of the beads will gradually fade over time with wear.** **◇ As wax cords have a slight molding property, you can gently stretch them to adjust the shape if they become deformed upon arrival.** **◎ Please avoid contact with water. Remove the bracelet before bathing. If it gets wet, place it in a dry place to air dry naturally.** **◎ Not recommended for children under 3 years old. Parents should ensure children do not put the beads in their mouths.** **◎ To prevent the beads from pressing on the skin and affecting blood circulation, do not let children wear them while sleeping. You can place them on a nearby table for protection :)** **◆ Friends in Hong Kong and Macau, please provide a Chinese address (including the district).** **◆ The displayed stock quantity is not for immediate dispatch.

I have a mountain in my heart, and for years, I have felt an urgent need to escape everything and return to the mountain. Below the mountain, a garden bloomed, nurturing me. Many years later, a tree hole gradually formed, and light began to emerge. From then on, I no longer needed to return to the mountain so urgently. I am the mountain, I am the tree, I am the light. If you happen to pass by, feel free to take a little, share your thoughts, and let us illuminate each other.
