What is the meaning of the Wulu 葫芦?

In traditional Chinese culture, Wulu 葫芦 have many beautiful meanings and auspicious objects. They are not only cute in appearance, but also carry people's infinite yearning for a better life.

Fortune and luck:
The WuLu is homophonic with "fortune 福禄" and has been regarded as a symbol of wealth and auspiciousness since ancient times. Whether it is hung at the door or worn on the body, people have such expectations: they hope that the Wulu can bring them good luck and wealth and make their lives happier and more fulfilling.

Protecting the home:
The Wulu is believed to have a powerful function of warding off evil spirits, which can absorb evil spirits and protect family members from intrusion. Most Chinese families hang a Wulu at the door, hoping that the Wulu can bless the family peace and avoid unfortunate events.

Prosperous descendants:
The Wulu vines are long and the fruits are abundant, symbolizing the reproduction of descendants and the prosperity of the family. Hanging the Wulu at home or giving it to newlyweds means having many children and blessings and a long line of descendants.

Prosperous sources of wealth:
The Wulu is also like a money bag, which means rich wealth. The ancients often used it to hold coins or jewelry to show their cherishment and prayer for wealth.

Successful career:
The Wulu is like an official hat, symbolizing a prosperous career. The ancients often gave it as a gift to officials or scholars to show their admiration and blessings.

The ancients split a Wulu in half, connected the handle with a thread and used it to drink and get married. In ancient times, it was called "Heqin 合卺", which symbolized that the newlyweds were connected as one. 卺 is a wulu. The newlyweds each drank from the cup with a half Wulu tied with a red rope, and then tied the two halves together with a red rope, which became the most important ceremony at the wedding, and thus also implied a good marriage. Using natural objects as auspicious objects is the experience and creation of early residents.
