Sun Flame Mirror, 15 cm
In Chinese FENG means "wind" and SHUI means "water". If we direct our vision upward toward the sky and from there, we slowly shift it downward toward the earth, then we see clouds between the "below" and the "above". Clouds symbolicaly consist of wind (air) and water. In acient China, wind and water were considered mediators between Heaven and Earth.
That is why the belief of a profound influence of Heaven on Earth still exists. It does not only possess the magnificent influence of changing the weather.
