The Star of Longevity is the ultimate symbol of longevity and
uninterupted health. The Star of Longevity commonly holds a "giant
peach of immortality" in his left hand, the powerful emblem
for prevention and healing of diseases. The peach is also known
as the fruit of immortality belonging to Si Wang Mu. In his right

their ripe ages.

Star of Longevity began as the star Canopus in the southern constellation
Argo, also known as the Old Man of the South Pole. People worshipped
