Fu Ling

Question: What does "fu" "shou" "xi" "Qi Ling" mean? I'm looking at pendants, and they have these in jade designs. They are very pretty, but I don't know what they mean. http://www.vitabeads.com/jade_pendant.ht…

Answer: fu = the character 褔 represents "good fortune", "blessings", "Luck" shou = the character 壽 means "longevity", the desire for long life. xi = the character 囍 - double happiness - is synonymous with the celebration of marriage. Consequently, it is related to the wish for fertility, and is often seen at the wedding banquets. Qi Ling = 麒麟 is a kind of mythological animal that has 2 horns, a horselike body with scales and 4 legs, they look like Dragons and have a few different colours too. They symbolise purity, innocence, truth and justice. Chinese usually buy these various kinds of pendants (made of prue gold or jade) as gifts to the new borns or new wedded couples or for may other occassions as blessing or wishing the receivers to be lucky, happy in the future.
