What is the purpose of such a talisman as the Chinese dog Fu and Pi Yao, we will tell you right now.
History and description
If you have visited a store at least once, which presents a variety of talismans and feng shui amulets, then you probably paid attention to such a talisman, which is called Pi Yao. The figurine is not quite an ordinary animal: the head of a dog with one or two horns, and the body of a powerful lion with wings and a small tail.
There is an interesting story related to the appearance of such an unusual talisman. According to the existing legend, Pi Yao was one of the sons of the heavenly dragon. This creature lives in the heavens, because wings were awarded only to the bravest, those who could bravely resist evil.
Another interesting legend says that once the emperor became very angry and ordered to punish Pi Yao. Ever since this mythical creature was supposed to absorb all negative energy and turn it into gold.

Such a figurine of a mythical animal considered one of the strongest talismans in feng shui. Specialists of this oriental philosophy argue that Pi Yao reliably protects the house and all its inhabitants from various troubles, problems and negativity. In addition, if you correctly position the talisman in the house, then it will not only protect you from evil, but also help increase your material well-being.
As a rule, such a talisman is made in the form of a figurine. It is very rare to find an image of such a symbol on jewelry.
If you wish, you can make to order or find a bracelet, a keychain with a small figurine of this mythical creature.
Very often, Pi Yao is confused with the Fu dog. But in fact, these are two completely different talismans that differ in appearance and have different meanings. Such a figurine is also very often called the "heavenly lion of Buddha". According to old legends it was the dog Fu who was the main protector and patroness of all emperors. One of the legends says that in ancient times a lion was brought to the emperor as a gift, the beauty and power of which surprised everyone. If you look closely, the dog really resembles a formidable and fearless lion.
Typically, these figures are of two types. The first is a male who presses a bead with his paw. In fact, this bead symbolizes our globe. This figurine symbolizes power. The second is a female who presses her cub to the ground.

How do talismans work?
Pi Yao works very well in a house that has recently been renovated. After all, renovation is a kind of renewal, so the energy of the house is still clean, which allows the talisman to double it and attract well-being.
Besides, such a figurine can become an excellent talisman for those who are successfully running their own business. In this case, you need to place it in your office, which will allow you to accumulate and increase capital. Pi Yao also protects businessmen from the negative influence of various ill-wishers.
We should also mention that this talisman is still able to protect its owner from negative thoughts and actions. Pay attention to the powerful paws of this animal.
Feng Shui experts say that with his paws, Pi Yao is able to repel not only negative energy, but also the negative thoughts of the person who owns it.

Even in ancient times, figures of this mythical creature were placed in front of the tombs of great people, as a symbol of their power. As a rule, the figures were always placed in pairs. Once they were made exclusively from jade, but later they began to use other stones and natural materials. In the modern world, in order for the talisman to work correctly, you need to find the most suitable place for him in the house.
The purpose of the Fu dog is very similar to the Pi Yao figurine. For example, a male figurine represents Yang energy. Such a talisman helps in many matters, especially those who are in business. Since the male dog is the personification of power, he will help his owner in all matters, giving him confidence in himself and in his own strength.

As for the second figurine (female), she is able to protect the family and home from negativity. As a rule, such figures of dogs are recommended to be purchased and placed in the house in pairs.
Despite the fact that the dog Fu and Pi Yao are somewhat similar in appearance, and there is some similarity in their purpose, Feng Shui experts do not recommend replacing one talisman with another.
In terms of their energy and degree of importance, they are very different, and therefore it is impossible to choose from two only one amulet, since each has its own special purpose.

How to arrange it correctly?
Each feng shui talisman has its own special meaning, and there are certain rules for placing them in the house. In the event that it is incorrect to place this or that figure, then it simply will not work. Therefore, we recommend that you take into account all the rules and recommendations, which will allow you to correctly position and activate the selected talisman.
To begin with, it is worth mentioning that the selected figure must be intact, without cracks, chips or other external damage. In the event that it has obvious flaws, then the talisman will only attract negativity into the house and into your life.
The Pi Yao figurine should be placed on a table or on a shelf in your home. It is very important that the talisman is located below the level of the eyes of the owner of the house, so you cannot put it on high shelves and cabinets. The best place for him is a coffee table in the living room or a small low cabinet. Remember that such a talisman should not be placed in a bedroom, children's room or bathroom.

In the event that you want to use Pi Yao to protect your home from the negativity and negative energy of those people who often visit you, then you should place the figurine in the corridor. The best place is the bedside table at the entrance to the house. The mythical animal must be turned towards the front door so that Pi Yao can see everyone who enters you. The larger the figurine, the better.
If you want to attract and increase finances, then the talisman should be placed in your office. The ideal place is your desk. By the way, it is quite possible to place this amulet next to such figures as a dragon or a tiger. Such feng shui talismans complement each other perfectly.
In order for Pi Yao to start working, you need to place a bell next to him, which you need to ring at least once a month.

Fu dogs, in order for them to actively protect the home from possible negativity, are also recommended to be placed at the entrance. The male should be positioned to the right of the entrance (when looking at the entrance from the inside of the house), and the female to the left. Inside the house, figurines should always be positioned so that they face the front door. If, in your own house, you decide to place the figures on the street in front of the house, then at the same time it is important that both figures look not at the entrance or inside the house, but at each other.
