Inside Our Second Yi Bao Cultural Workshop
走進我們第二場「衣包」文化工作坊

A look back at our second Yi Bao 衣包 Cultural Workshop at Lion Trading, held in celebration of Chongyang Festival 重陽節 — an afternoon of learning, remembrance, and sharing Chinese traditions.

It was especially meaningful to see people of different ages, generations, and cultural backgrounds come together to experience this tradition.

This was our final cultural workshop of 2026, but certainly not our last!

We look forward to bringing more cultural experiences to our community. Stay tuned for what’s next!

回顧利安風水佛具第二場「衣包」文化工作坊，適逢重陽佳節，大家一起認識傳統、思念先人，將這份文化繼續傳承下去。

很高興見到不同年齡、世代及文化背景的朋友聚在一起，共同體驗這項傳統習俗。

這是我們 2026 年最後一場文化工作坊，但絕對不會是最後一次！

期待未來繼續與大家分享更多中華文化體驗，敬請期待！

Chongyang Festival (重陽節), also known as the Double Ninth Festival, is a time to honor our elders, remember our ancestors, and cherish the connections between generations. 🍂

Observed on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, the festival takes its name from the number nine, which is associated with yang (陽) in traditional Chinese thought. Two nines together give us “重陽”—double yang.

Traditions include climbing hills, enjoying chrysanthemums, and gathering with family. For many Chinese families, it is also a time to visit ancestors’ graves, tidy their resting places, and prepare offerings of incense, food, and joss paper as expressions of remembrance and care.

Behind these customs is something simple: appreciating those who are still beside us and remembering those who came before us.

At Lion Trading, we help families understand and prepare traditional offerings, whether these customs are familiar or something they are learning for the first time.

Here in the heart of San Francisco Chinatown, we hope to keep sharing the meaning behind these traditions and help carry them forward for the next generation.

Remembering our roots. Caring for our elders. Keeping our loved ones in our hearts. 🧡

重陽節，是敬老、思親、慎終追遠的日子。🍂

每年農曆九月初九，因「九」在傳統文化中屬陽，兩九相逢，故稱「重陽」。

重陽的習俗包括登高、賞菊及與家人相聚。對許多華人家庭而言，這也是掃墓祭祖的時節，透過整理先人的安息之所、上香，以及準備食物與金銀衣紙，寄託對先人的思念與心意。

這些習俗背後，是一份樸實而深厚的感情：珍惜眼前人，也不忘來時路。

在利安風水佛具，我們希望幫助大家認識傳統祭品及準備方式，讓熟悉這些習俗的家庭有所依靠，也讓第一次接觸的朋友能夠慢慢了解。

在三藩市華埠，我們繼續分享傳統背後的意義，讓敬老思親的心意，一代一代傳承下去。🧡

What does a Feng Shui consultation for a home actually look like? 🏡🧭

A home is where we rest, connect, and build our everyday lives. Feng Shui considers how the space can better support the people living within it.

Join Master ICY and me behind the scenes of a real home consultation. From the entrance and surrounding environment to the living room, we explored how the layout and flow of energy relate to the home as a whole.

Even small decisions—such as how an entrance is used or where furniture is placed—can influence how we experience a space every day.

Every home is different. Every household is different. That’s why Feng Shui should be personalized to both.

✨ Online home Feng Shui consultations are also available—even if we can’t visit your space in person.

Rooted in tradition, made for modern life. 🧭

一個居家風水諮詢，到底會看些什麼？🏡🧭

家是我們休息、與家人相處，以及展開日常生活的地方。居家風水著重了解如何運用空間，配合及支持居住者的生活需要。

跟著 Master ICY 和我，走進一次真實的居家風水諮詢。從房屋入口、外圍環境到客廳，我們觀察空間佈局與氣流，了解它們與整個家居環境的關係。

有時候看似簡單的細節，例如入口如何使用、家具如何擺放，都會影響我們每天在家中的感受與活動。

每一個家不同，每個家庭的生活習慣也不同，所以風水佈局需要因人、因地而定。

✨ 現提供網上居家風水諮詢，即使我們無法親身到訪，也可以透過線上方式進行分析。

源於傳統，融入現代生活。🧭

Not your @sfstandard Chinatown visit!

They came to learn about our joss paper traditions, stayed for the vibes, and left with their jaws on the floor after a BaZi (Chinese Astrology) reading with Master ICY.

Who knew the @sfstandard crew was this fun?!

Want your jaw on the floor too? You know where to find us! 👀

A few moments captured from our “Remembering & Sending Our Thoughts” Yi Bao Workshop. 🏮

From learning the meaning behind each type of joss paper to preparing and completing a Yi Bao by hand, our hope was to create an experience where people could do more than simply see a tradition — they could understand it through participation.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at Lion Trading to learn, experience, and help carry this tradition forward.

Our first cultural workshop — and the beginning of something new at Lion Trading.

一些屬於「思親・傳心意」衣包手作工作坊的片段 🏮

從認識每一款紙品背後的意義，到親手準備、書寫及完成屬於自己的衣包，我們希望透過親身參與，讓大家不只是「看見」傳統，而是真正了解傳統。

謝謝每一位來到 Lion Trading，和我們一起認識、體驗及延續這份文化的朋友。

這是我們第一次舉辦文化工作坊，也是 Lion Trading 一個新的開始。

很開心今次「思親・傳心意」衣包手作工作坊獲《星島日報》報道。

對我而言，這不只是一場手作工作坊，更是一次把傳統重新帶到大家面前的嘗試。

從事傳統文化及民俗工作多年，我一直覺得，有些文化如果只停留在「上一代做過」，慢慢就會變成我們聽過，卻不再真正了解的傳統。

衣包看似只是一份紙品，但從準備、書寫到封包，每一個步驟背後都有它的意義。它承載的不只是傳統習俗，更是一份對先人的思念、敬意與心意。

所以今次，我特別希望用一個更容易理解、可以親身參與的方式，讓不同背景、不同年齡的人，都有機會接觸這項傳統，知道我們為甚麼這樣做，也明白它背後所承載的文化與情感。

很感謝《星島日報》把這次工作坊記錄下來，也感謝每一位願意坐下來，親手完成一份衣包的朋友。

傳承，不只是把傳統保存下來，
而是讓下一代願意認識它、理解它，
再把這份文化繼續帶下去。

這亦是我希望一直做下去的事。

I’m very happy to see our “Remembering & Passing on Our Love” Traditional Yi Bao Workshop featured in Sing Tao Daily.
To me, this was more than just a hands-on workshop. It was an opportunity to bring a meaningful tradition back into people’s lives and help them understand the culture behind it.

Having worked with Chinese traditions and folk customs for many years, I have always felt that when a tradition remains only as something “the older generation used to do,” it can gradually become something we have heard about but no longer truly understand.

A Yi Bao may look like a simple paper offering, but every step, from preparing and writing it to carefully sealing the package, carries its own meaning. It represents not only a traditional custom, but also remembrance, respect, and heartfelt thoughts for our ancestors and loved ones who have passed.

That is why I wanted to introduce this tradition in a way that is easy to understand and experience firsthand, so that people of different ages and backgrounds can learn not only how it is done, but also why we do it and what it represents.

I’m grateful to Sing Tao Daily for documenting this workshop, and to everyone who took the time to sit down, learn, and prepare a Yi Bao with their own hands.

Preserving tradition is not simply about keeping the past alive.
It is about helping the next generation discover it, understand it, and carry it forward.

That is something I hope to continue doing.

One of the most famous legends connected to the Mid-Autumn Festival is the story of Chang’e and Hou Yi (后羿) — a tale of love, sacrifice, and separation that has been passed down for generations.

Even today, when families gather under the full moon during Mid-Autumn Festival, the legend of Chang’e continues to be told. 🥮🏮

Here’s the story behind one of Chinese culture’s most well-known legends. 🌕✨

Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋節) is one of the most meaningful celebrations in Chinese culture—a time for family reunion, gratitude, and looking up at the same full moon together. 🌕🥮

Celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the festival has roots in ancient traditions surrounding the moon, the autumn harvest, and giving thanks. Over generations, stories like Chang’e (嫦娥) and Hou Yi (后羿) also became an important part of how Mid-Autumn Festival is remembered and shared.

The full moon represents reunion (團圓) and completeness. Families gather, share mooncakes and tea, admire the moon, and pass these traditions from one generation to the next.

For some families, Mid-Autumn is also a time to remember loved ones who are no longer with us. Offerings such as fruit and mooncakes may be prepared, while incense and joss paper are offered as expressions of remembrance and care.

Behind the mooncakes, lanterns, and traditions is something that has remained the same for generations: family, gratitude, and togetherness.

Here in the heart of San Francisco Chinatown, we hope to continue sharing the meaning behind these traditions and help keep them alive for the next generation.

Different generations, different traditions—but we still look up at the same moon. 🌕

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! 中秋節快樂！ 🥮🏮

A meaningful evening honoring the life and legacy of Rose Pak and her lasting impact on San Francisco’s Chinatown.

一個有意義的晚上，一同緬懷白蘭女士（Rose Pak）為三藩市華埠留下的深遠影響與精神。

Rose Pak dedicated much of her life to advocating for Chinatown and ensuring the Chinese American community had a voice in the future of this city. Her legacy continues through the generations who remain involved, support the community, and create opportunities for those who come after them.

白蘭女士一生積極為華埠及華人社區發聲。她留下的精神至今仍在延續，也提醒我們繼續參與、支持社區，並為下一代創造更多機會。

From a Feng Shui perspective, @master.icy often reminds us that the “Qi” of a place is not only shaped by its buildings, streets, and surroundings, but also by the people who live there and the generations who continue to care for it.

從風水角度來, @master.icy 常說，一個地方的「氣」，不只是建築、街道與方位，更重要的是生活在這片土地上的人，以及一代又一代如何守護與延續它。

We attended the 10th Annual Rose Pak Community Gala, surrounded by so many people who continue to care deeply about Chinatown and its future.

我們一同出席第十屆 Rose Pak Community Gala，與眾多關心華埠及其未來的人士相聚。

A community continues to thrive when people continue to care for it.

一個地方真正好的風水，是有人願意為它留下心力，也有人願意把這份心繼續傳下去。
