Description
The Cherry Blossom, or Sakura, blooms beautifully but briefly, and has become an enduring symbol of transience in Japanese culture. The arrival of the Sakura Zensen, or warm front, heralds the beginning of the return to summer. The Cherry Blossom Monkey can sometimes be seen when the blossoms are open, holding his wooden Katana in a curious claim to a fading class of nobility. He is a reminder of the values of a bygone age, and when his is seen, he adds his own level of poetic significance to the scene of falling white petals that carpet the ground and fill the air. For the Monkey Mages, he is a figure used often in stories and fables, as he has come to symbolize the persistence of tradition, and the tension that exists between the wisdom of ancient ways and the constant flux of history. Indeed, to many, he is a harbinger of times of change, the messenger of painful transformations and realignments.
