| Note that the needle is contained in a bowl in the middle and the outer part of the compass is turned to align with the needle. The Chinese divided their compass into 12 points, named for their zodiac, however the Feng Shui compasses seem to have 8 cardinal points.This is a Combination Chinese compass and Sun Dial. This design is thousands of years old. Many of the markings are based on the I Ching. There are compass only versions of this called Bau Gua, Lo Pan, etc. |
