Pendant, Gemstone, Wu Lou , Cherry Quartz Carved and etched x authors Sharon Salzberg and RobertThe shape itself of the Wu Lou plays an important role in its image; it is a depiction of heaven and earth unified. The top half of the gourd symbolizes heaven, and the bottom half is earth. The use of the gourd by humans indicates the harmony between earth, heaven and humanity. The Wu Lou is also said to have the ability to absorb bad chi, for the reason that Taoist monks use the gourd to incarcerate evil spirits. *This listing is for a single item*
