Small Tibetan Prayer Flag

Common to many Tibetan prayer flags is the lungta or windhorse, the mythical animal who carries all intentional prayers to the universe. Set of five multi-colored flags. Each cotton flag is 5X6  square and hangs from a 5-foot long cotton cord. The hanging of prayer flags is thought to dispel danger and to bring good fortune. Prayer Flags are printed from hand carved woodblocks in the traditional manner. The five flag colors represent the five elements: Blue (earth), White (water), Red (fire), Saffron (infinite space), and Green (cosmic winds). Enjoy the slow fading of color as they hang in the elements. To dispose of old flags with respect, please burn them
