Feng Shui - Double Happiness - Wall Hanging

This is a common gift for Chinese couples getting married or newly married couples, but it appropriate for anyone for whom you wish the greatest of happiness.

In the West it is said that, "Two heads are better than one" Well, in the East, two "happinesses" are certainly better than one.

If one could imagine looking at someone from above who is doing the infamous Snoopy dance and beating a drum that would be the image of this character. At the bottom is the symbol of mouth, open and wide ready to shout for joy. At the top is the symbol of drums, beating out our joy and happiness. Thinking about this image, it often reminds me of the simple pleasure a little child has just beating on pots and pans. Taking those images to heart, that is the type of happiness this character is talking about.

The symmetry of the symbol makes it "appealing" to the eye, a feature in Chinese writing that is just as important as the word itself.
