Talisman of Everlasting Unity (for a stable and ever-growing relationship)

The Taoist "Harmony and Union Talisman" is a type of ritual charm within Taoist mystical practices, used to promote, repair, or enhance emotions and relationships between people. It is typically created by practicing Taoist priests or masters who follow specific rituals, such as burning incense, reciting incantations, and performing ceremonial steps, to imbue the drawn symbols with divine power.

The term "和合" (Harmony and Union) originally means harmony, amicability, and fusion. In Taoist belief, there are specific deities who govern marital relationships and emotional harmony in the world, namely the "Two Immortals of Harmony and Union" (personifications of the monks Hanshan and Shide), who symbolize harmony and joy in interpersonal relationships. Thus, the core idea of the Harmony and Union Talisman is to invoke divine power to harmonize the energy fields and connections between people, eliminate conflicts and misunderstandings, and enhance intimacy and harmony.
