chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 06/21/2018 05:32 am It looks to be part of a set of the eight immortals. http://www.fengshuibestbuy.com/SL11...mortals.html The 6th Immortal is Han Hsian Tzu, who makes sounds with his flute to attract good chi around him to induce healing energies. He is said to make flowers grow and blossom instantaneously. He studied under Lu Dong Pin and became an immortal himself in AD820. His emblem is the flute, able to provide six healing sounds and he is the patron of musicians. He wandered around the country playing his flute and attracting birds and beasts of prey by the sweet sound. He is depicted riding on an Ox, a mythical beast. He had mastered the Five Elements and Yin and Yang theories.
