This special art is one that is not easily found in the market because it is conceptualized by our feng shui scholar. It has 9 Carps (one of them black) bouncing above strong currents to reach the dragon gate of heaven. The round shaped gate with a dragon head is showing the dragon gate of heaven. It also showed one of them already successfully jumping over the gate to form a dragon’s head. The old tale of the carps jumping and crossing over “Dragon Gate” to transform into the dragon reminds us of the ability to resist hurdles and achieving success. The carp is a tough fish that could resist big currents in China’s ancient Yellow River and they portray perseverance and determination. They are 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.
