"This is your sign" Tee:
A hand-carved block stamp tee featuring Taiwanese moon blocks design.
In Taiwan, Moon blocks, 筊杯 jiǎo bēi are two crescent-shaped wooden or bamboo blocks used in temples to seek guidance or answers from deities. Each block has a flat and a curved side.
Here’s how it works:
- Pose a Question: People start by praying and asking a clear yes-or-no question.
- Drop the Blocks: Then, they gently toss the blocks and see how they land.
-
Interpret the Answer:
- One flat side and one curved side (a "smile" and a "frown") means "yes."
- Both flat sides up means "no."
- Both curved sides up means the gods are laughing and the question is unclear, so they should ask again.
This practice is a way for people to connect with the divine, find reassurance, or seek guidance on important decisions. It’s a beautiful part of Taiwanese temple culture, blending faith with community and tradition.
*One block up, one block down means "Yes" which is featured on our design.
