Usher everlasting luck into your space with uplifting Japanese palindrome phrases that read the same forward and back.
What’s Palindrome (KAIBUN)?
Palindrome is a phrase that reads the same forward and back. Since the words go around, palindrome is a symbol of everlasting luck.
How to Use the Palindrome Calligraphy
Use it to decorate the entrance of your home or office. To uplift your fortune even more, place it in the ‘water section’ of your house such as the kitchen or bathroom. According to Fengshui, these areas where water circulates help to “wash away” bad spirits. The power of palindromes will wash away the impurities of your home or office. A Framed Palindrome Calligraphy also makes for the perfect gift.
