Libra
Balanced Scales
In Sui-dynasty harmony, Libra holds golden scales between heaven and earth. Each pan carries a lotus and a flaming pearl — perfect balance of yin and yang. Repainted in Western Xia times, the colours remain impossibly vivid. Justice here is not cold; it is wrapped in silk, surrounded by donor portraits whose eyes still follow visitors after a thousand years, reminding us that fairness is the quiet heartbeat of the cosmos.
