Description
When the Dragon soars and the Phoenix dances, the people will enjoy happiness for years, bringing peace and tranquility to all under heaven.

Legend claims the Dragon holds the power of everlasting life among his claws. This most valuable treasure, wisdom, is made possible only to those who perceive real truth and attain enlightenment. The jewel that grants all desires, symbol of all power and knowledge.

The magnificent Red Bird, Fenghuang (Also known as the Chinese Phoenix) is the symbol of high virtue and grace; also symbolizes the union of Yin and Yang; shadow and light, heat and cold, woman and man taming each other in an eternal dance; opposites need each other to maintain balance.

Each pearl stands for a being. The four of them are in clockwise order, starting from the one the Dragon is holding: South, West, North, and East.

The Dragon is the East and the Phoenix is the South. (The other two are the Tortoise/North; and the Kirin/West)

But the main picture is for the first two, which represents the union of Yin and Yang. And so is why it's called "Quarter past six"; since the time would tell those cardinal directions.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The message on this piece is that, since the Phoenix represents the woman, she would be the most valuable treasure as is being held as the jewel by the Dragon. Therefore, the wisest creature in the world.
