Inherent within the Wahyu Tumurun batik motif patterns are certain symbols and meanings. The primary motif of the flying crown, for example, symbolizes honor. The philosophy portrays a wish that those who wear it shall receive guidance and are blessed with a gift from the Almighty. Furthermore, it also denotes a vehicle for those seeking success in achieving a dream or these seeking status or rank. 
For special occasions like marriage, for example, this particular motif stands for everlasting harmony and happiness�hence the preference for wearing Wahyu Tumurun batik motif for Javanese wedding ceremonies. In the old days, the process of making batik motif could take 40 days and nights to complete before the batik pattern process can begin. Each pattern, line or dot forming the batik motif denotes a prayer and a special wish to the Almighty. 
Another version of Wahyu Tumurun motif from the Mangkunegaran Palace is typically associated with keraton (or palace) batik, and is typically worn by the bride and the bridegroom during their wedding ceremony. Wahyu means 'gift', while tumurun means 'to derive'. Hence, by utilizing this kain (cloth), the bride and the bridegroom will receive the gift of everlasting happiness, welfare as well as guidance from the Almighty.
