For Pixiu jewelry, the mouth should face outward when worn. This symbolizes attracting wealth while also representing alertness to external dangers, offering protection to the wearer. Wearing it inside your clothes close to the body does not matter, as long as the mouth is not facing inward.
In daily life, it is natural to touch your Pixiu, but try not to touch its eyes or mouth, as this may affect its ability to perform its “duty.” Usually, gently touching its head is enough, much like treating a pet.
Also, do not let other people casually touch your Pixiu. After absorbing another person’s energy, the Pixiu may become “confused” and unable to tell who its true owner is. Therefore, it is best to let the Pixiu carry only your own energy and avoid allowing outsiders to touch it.
When outside, you may encounter someone else wearing a Pixiu. In this situation, it is recommended to hide your own Pixiu inside your clothing. Since Pixiu is traditionally considered a fierce mythical beast, two Pixiu meeting each other may “fight,” leading to competition. In traditional beliefs, whether fighting or competing, this may result in financial loss.
According to the idea that Pixiu can be male or female, two Pixiu of the same gender meeting will naturally compete, reflecting the principle that similar energies repel each other. If a male and female Pixiu meet, they may “fall in love.” As people know, those in love often lose interest in food and daily matters, so a Pixiu “in love” may lose interest in “eating” treasures and wealth. Therefore, unless they belong to the same family, it is better to avoid letting unfamiliar Pixiu “meet” each other.
Another situation where two Pixiu may “meet” is through mirrors. Occasionally looking in a mirror is not a problem, but if a Pixiu ornament is placed facing a mirror for a long period of time, similar issues may occur. In feng shui, this situation is known as “clashing sha.”
There are also several commonly overlooked taboos. In terms of quantity, it is generally suitable for one person to wear only one Pixiu accessory. It is rare to see someone wearing two or more. However, for Pixiu ornaments or statues, it is usually recommended to place them in pairs.
There are also considerations regarding who should wear Pixiu. Since Pixiu is considered a fierce beast, people with relatively weaker energy or constitution — such as pregnant women, the elderly, and children — are generally considered less suitable for wearing it. They are usually advised to choose gentler auspicious creatures instead.
However, if you are involved in business or entrepreneurship, you may consider wearing Pixiu. Still, personal strength and spirit are the foundation. Wearing Pixiu without cultivating your own energy and mindset may have little meaning.
Another believed benefit of wearing Pixiu is that it may reduce the chances of encountering strange or unusual phenomena.
