Wiki definition: Origin: Chinese. To put it simply, the term denotes a relationship made by fate or destiny. 'Yuan' means fate and fen translates to the division of two halves. Thus Yuánfèn is when fate brings two people together.
Yuanfen (缘分; 緣分, 緣份; yuánfèn; iân-hūn; Vietnamese: duyên phận), "fateful coincidence," is a concept in Chinese and Vietnamese societies describing good and bad chances and potential relationships.[1] It can also be translated as "destiny, luck as conditioned by one's past", or "natural affinity among friends." It is comparable to the concept of karma in Buddhism, but yuanfen is interactive rather than individual. The driving forces and causes behind yuánfèn are said to be actions done in previous incarnations.
Scholars Yang Kuo-shu and David Ho have analysed the psychological advantages of this belief: by assigning causality of negative events to yuanfen beyond personal control, people tend to maintain good relationships, avoid conflict, and promote social harmony; likewise, when positive events are seen as result of yuanfen, personal credit is not directly assigned, which reduces pride on one side of the relationship and envy and resentment on the other.
Skeletons are common in my work. They are a reminder of the brevity of life. Death is everywhere, in the fallen leafs outside, in the insects on your windowsill, the meat in your refrigerator, etc... These fairies are about the presence of death which we tend to avoid. In a way, the fairies are telling you not to take everything so seriously. We are all here for a brief moment. And that's ok.
