Totem of Chinese Characters and Corresponding Applications

The Hanzi Wheel can generate countless Chinese characters through rotation. Furthermore, some characters can have multiple forms of "Hanzi Wheel" representation, showcasing the profound historical heritage of Chinese character shapes. Building on curved elements found in the ancient Oracle Bone Script and Seal Script, the Hanzi Wheel innovatively defines the outer contour of Chinese characters as a "circle". The use of "△" to replace the "口" in the Hanzi Wheel is derived from Oracle Bone Script, demonstrating a continuation of ancient wisdom.
The Hanzi Wheel, with its outer circle and inner square, not only reflects the ancient cosmological view of "heaven being round and earth being square," but also cleverly incorporates the shape of ancient Chinese coins, symbolizing wealth and harmony. The symbol of anti-war, in the shape of the letter “Y”, which represents peace, is subtly embedded, expressing a desire for world peace. Therefore, the pattern itself embodies the encouragement of people to transcend borders and races to collectively safeguard our Earth home and pursue the grand vision of a "community with a shared future for mankind." Additionally, the diamond shape symbolizes the value of eternity, and in conjunction with a meditative posture, reflects the supreme pursuit of spiritual richness and inner peace.
