Flying Star Carp Globe
The carp is probably the most popular fish reared in ancient china till
today, where it can be found in imperial palaces, homes of the rich and
powerful, casinos and hotels as a traditional feng shui fish. The carp
is very closely associated to the dragon. The old tale of the carp jumping
and crossing over "Dragon Gate" to transform into a Dragon had
become very popular. The carp is a tough fish that could resist big currents
in China's ancient Yellow River and this portray perseverance and determination
of it. It is able to persistently resist hardship, swim upstream and rapidly
jumping above the water to reach heaven to symbolize great achievements
in ones pursuit or high ambitions of a lifetime. Although the carp is
often being associated to scholastic success and literary luck, but it
is also a potent emblem of happy outcome, joyful marriage, sufficient
fortune and prosperity.
Fish can increase the momentum of wealth generation, gather accumulation
of wealth and neutralize negative forces. The chinese always associate
the fish with abundance and prosperity with the saying "nien nien
yew yu" which means "seeing abundance harvest every year".
Because of its strong symbolic meaning, chinese homes are normally decorated
with fish ponds, aquariums and art pieces. They believe this is will make
the family income "float". There are quite a number of fishes
which are popular among feng shui enthusiasts, but mostly are red, orange,
gold or silverish white in color. And all of them are fresh water fish,
where so far we had not seen salt water fish being used to activate feng
shui luck.
