Pair of Jade Piyao Hanging

A pair of Piyao beautifully carved out of jade and embellished with beaded tassels. Good things do come in pairs. You can dangle this on your handbag, on the car's rearview mirror or anywhere desired.

This mystical good luck creature Pi Yao is the ninth son of the Heavenly Dragon whose task is to provide the blessings of good finance and wealth luck. A very fascinating fact about this lucky creature is that it does not have an anus, so that, despite its never-ending appetite, things go in yet never come out. This is a unique symbolism, indicating that money will come to you but never leave.

The Pi Yao is found in many places in Oriental countries, such as banks, casinos, and finance companies – anything that has to do with a benefit from monetary gain. Since ancient times, when it served to safeguard the homes of emperors and government officials, the Chinese have always admired and respected this extremely good luck symbol. It is a very loyal creature, and will always attempt to rid its owners life of bad luck and replace it with wealth luck.

The Pi Yao is believed to offer its owner a minimum of eight blessings, which are named below:
1. Brings fortune and good tidings
2. Producer of good Feng Shui or Earth luck
3. Attracts wealth and prosperity
4. Safeguards the home and the residents in it
5. Exterminates evil, adversity and obstacles
6. Summons windfall luck
7. Protects from accident during travel
8. Appeases Tai Sui

The Pi Yao is one of the best appeaser of the Grand Duke Jupiter. The Grand Duke Jupiter or Tai Sui is a presence in the home, which changes location every year and resides in 15 degrees of the compass. When one is directly in his path at any time, be when sitting, walking or even sleeping, confrontation with the Grand Duke will incur his wrath and cause many misfortunes. Because the Grand Duke Jupiter inflicts harm even upon those who didn’t intend any confrontation, a carry-along Pi Yao is a solution to always protect you against him.

There have been many cases where individuals involved in car accidents or burglary encounters left the ordeal without any injuries or issues, and later noticed that the Pi Yao amulet they had been carrying was broken into pieces or was damaged. It is believed that in such cases, the Pi Yao sacrifices itself for its owners well being. It is for this reason that many people treat their Pi Yao as a real pet, rubbing their bodies and talking to them daily. You can choose to wear a small Pi Yao as an amulet, or keep one in your bag; whatever you choose, just remember to always keep it joyful – a happy Pi Yao will go out of its way to be loyal and useful!

This Feng Shui Pi Yao is made of the crystal Jade - the most beloved gemstone of the Chinese. Recorded history has shown that this stone has been used as jewelry since 5000 years ago! It's also known as the 'stone of heaven' or 'noble stone' and was held higher in value than gold in olden times. Jade was a symbol of rank, power and wealth for kings, emperors and noblemen. Confucius mentioned that jade contained and reflected human virtues like durability, purity, serenity and radiance. To many Chinese, jade has magical protective powers that keep the wearer from harm. Considered to be the ultimate Feng Shui crystal, jade charms are said to bring harmony, attract good luck and friendship and promotes self-sufficiency. It also increases nurturing and love that can be used to harmonize dysfunctional relationships. Mentally, jade helps discard negative thoughts and soothes the mind as well as stimulates ideas.
