Black Turtle of the North

This unique turtle print depicts one of the Four Auspicious Beasts, the Black Turtle of the North. Presented in its traditional form wrapped in a black snake, this guardian of the north stands boldly in front of snow-capped mountains and forest, set against a rising blood moon in the cold winter sky.

Often viewed as a symbol of protection, stability, and longevity, the black tortoise and serpent are considered to be one, a union of two creatures thought to have been involved with the creation of the world. References to the black turtle date as far back as 5500 BC, and it is one of the Four Symbols of the Chinese Constellations.

The Black Turtle, often called the Black Warrior, stands guard over your home and provides strength to your family and household. In the art of Feng Shui, a Black Turtle is often placed in the back of one's home, or behind your bed. It is best to avoid putting it in a kitchen or bathroom. 

It is also one of the best ways to improve the Feng Shui in your office. Have it (and you) facing the door to keep a steady flow of clients and projects coming your way. 

A great piece of turtle art for any occasion. Take home this conversation starter today.
