A religious plate
Two words columns represent two gods
The first column (Right): 五方 = five direction, namely north, east, south, west and middle, 五土=five earth 龍神= dragon god. It is from Chinese story tale. For providing luck to people.
The second column (Left): 前=front, 後=rear, 地主= earth god & 財神=money god. It’s for protection of home & offering of money.
This plate should be placed inside the house for worship. Two incense burners should ne placed in front of the plate for each god and worship with incense sticks, Chinese white wine and cooked meat.
