kin


So, the last 5 blocks are the kanji for the 5 elements (water, earth, wood, fire & metal) which, combined with the 12 animal signs, make up the 60 year Chinese Astrology cycle.


I made these blocks to use with my zodiac animal blocks I made in December. Each year is assigned an animal sign as well as an element. My animal is rat and my element is metal, like so...



Prints are available for purchase at my etsy shop.

Hey there fellow rat! 1972?

I squeaked in at the end of that year ;)
