Lung-ta prayer flags | Carrying the prayers to the Universe

Tibetan prayer flags are traditionally hung in high places to catch the wind so the prayer will be carried out to bless and bring good fortune to all sentient beings. Translated to English, the words on Wind Horse prayer flags say:

"May the rainfall at the proper time.

May the crops and livestock be bountiful.

May there be freedom from illness, famine, and war.

May all beings be well and happy."

Lung-ta flags are hung horizontally in sets of five. The five flags are in order according to their colour and meaning:

Blue symbolizes the sky and space
White symbolizes the air and wind
Red symbolizes fire
Green symbolizes water
Yellow symbolizes Earth

Health and harmony are produced through the balance and order of the flags. All over the world, but especially in South Asia, prayer flags are found in ridges, mountain passes, between trees, rocks and also on top of monasteries, stupas, and temples. They're typically hung diagonally, from high to low.
