Clouds, sometimes referred to as "auspicious clouds" (xiangyun), represent the heavens and also "good luck" because the Chinese word for cloud (yun) is pronounced the same as yun meaning "luck" or "fortune". Its form often resembles the auspicious shape of the Lingzhi "fungus of immortality". The cloud is a commonly seen design and when repeated in a pattern symbolizes never-ending fortune. For a comprehensive discussion of the relationship of the cloud, dragon, star, and moon symbols please visit Charm Symbols: Star, Moon, Cloud and Dragon. Auspicious clouds may be seen on coins and charms at the following: Auspicious Inscriptions, Chinese Coins with Charm Features, Buddhist Charms, Daoist Charms.
