Celestial Beings wear [seals and pendants] as part of their clothing. The 'Jiu Zhen Jing' (the Nine Truths Classic) states: Of the center is the 'Venerable Sovereign' (the deified Lao Zi), upon his waist wears a 'Black Dragon Pendant'.

Also, the 'Talisman of the Divine Tiger' tied to a ribbon swinging back and forth [cast in] gold.

Not just like the sparks from an agitated blaze rise up and scatter about, one can ramble about there in all directions, but also one needs be allowed to dwell there in permanent domicile.
