Celebrating the Winter Solstice

Estimated Reading Time: 5 mins

The Winter Solstice (冬至), a deeply revered moment of reflection and rejuvenation, arrives on 21 December 2024. This auspicious period of rebirth heralds the opportunity for fresh beginnings, encouraging individuals to embrace new paths and possibilities as they step into the new year.

Rites and Rituals of the Winter Solstice

In ancient China, the winter solstice marked the end of the harvest season and was deeply rooted in the yin-yang philosophy of balance and harmony. This day symbolises the meeting of major yin and minor yang forces, initiating a renewed cycle of balance. As daylight hours lengthen after the winter solstice, a rise in positive energy signifies the promise of new growth and vitality.

In imperial China, the winter solstice was a key event in the court calendar, celebrated with elaborate rituals led by the emperor, who was revered as the Son of Heaven. These ceremonies, held at the Temple of Heaven, included prayers and offerings to thank the Heavens for the year’s bounty and to ensure prosperity for the year ahead. The preparations within the Forbidden City were extensive, reflecting the empire’s devotion to honouring the Heavens as a force overseeing the balance and success of society.

Imperial Harvest’s consecration ceremonies are inspired by historic Chinese customs and crafted with utmost reverence, led by Master David. Each blessing rite invokes the power of ancient rituals to bring prosperity to clients. The ceremony begins with lighting incense from rare Qinan Agarwood and India Old Mountain Sandalwood, followed by offering Lao Banzhang pu-erh tea—a favourite of emperors—to the Heavens. Master David then consecrates each treasure with a red vermilion paste, blending Agarwood and Sandalwood powders to enhance wealth energy. Through these meticulous rituals, Master David forges a spiritual connection with the Heavens, imbuing each piece with blessings of abundance and harmony.

Imperial Harvest Qian Long Jadeite Mountain

The Qing dynasty was a period of immense cultural, economic, and political success, led by legendary rulers like Emperors Kang Xi and Qian Long, whose visionary leadership fostered a renaissance in the arts and culture. Emperor Qian Long, in particular, was an avid collector, displaying art throughout the Forbidden City as a source of guidance and inspiration for his reign. A dedicated proponent of Imperial Feng Shui, he integrated its principles across the imperial palace, appointing Feng Shui masters to oversee layouts, treasures, and ceremonial elements.

At Imperial Harvest, Emperor Qian Long’s legacy endures through collections inspired by his embrace of Imperial Feng Shui and cultural sophistication. The Qian Long Jadeite Mountain Collection exemplifies this heritage, blending Chinese art with Western influences to create a contemporary east-meets-west aesthetic. This collection features metal-elemental mountains, known for their rounded tops and wealth-generating qualities, aligning with the five-element theory in Feng Shui.
