The mystic knot, which is also recognized by other names (lucky, love, infinity or never-ending knot) is one of the eight lucky signs of Buddhism. It has this position because of the way it can be twined into a figure “8” without ever having an end point. The number 8 has always been a lucky number for the Chinese due to the fact that saying “8” in Chinese sounds like “fortune”. Because of this reason, this all-round good luck symbol has become an icon for the endless flow of longevity, prosperity, triumph, love and health. In Buddhist beliefs, this knot is a symbol of the neverending cycle, providing the ability to overcome illnesses and misfortunes and instead creating fame and fortune. It is also believed to be an icon of “persistent love”. Because it is in relation to the number 8, this good luck charm has intense power in Period 8 (2004 – 2024).
This mystic knot has always been a good luck symbol for the Chinese. It has been used for many centuries, being woven onto the robes adorned by the imperial Emperors of China – this was done to dictate the immortality that they possessed.
This good luck charm is said to have the magical effect of curing untamed tempers. It will bring a calm and sensibility in situations that demand it; simply rubbing the knot when you are feeling irritated or impatient will relieve your stress and allow for mental clarity.
