Information
This class lets you create Korea's traditional evil-warding dried pollack using punch needles, a symbol meant to bring good fortune and ward off bad luck.
What is Evil-warding dried pollack? Evil-warding dried pollack is a traditional Koren decorative item believed to ward off bad energy and invite good fortune. Pollock symbolizes abundance because it lays many eggs, and since it is often dried and and preserved for a long time, it also represents lasting prosperity and goo luck. Sometimes, red chili peppers or charcoal are hung together with it to enhance the meaning of blocking negative energy and purifying the space. Rather than a strict belief, this custom is best understood as symbolic cultural practice that celebrates and supports new beginnings.
