The practice of “writing with the phoenix brush” remains widespread in Taiwan and parts of China to this day. A religious temple community requests a message from a deity. The deity “descends into the brush” and empowers a medium to write characters either in a container filled with sand or ash, or directly on a tabletop. These characters form the deity’s message, which may serve the moral renewal of humanity or provide answers to individual questions from community members.
