Pi Yao 2017

When someone asks you what is Feng Shui, chances are that you mention Pi Yao along with the many other Cures and Enhancers when you are trying to explain how Feng Shui works; the reason to this is because the Pi Yao is one of the most popular Feng Shui Cures that exists along with the Buddha, Dragon, Fu Dogs and more.

The Pi Yao goes by different names such as Pi Xiu (earthly form) or Pi Kan (Water form) and is recognised as a very powerful Cure and Enhancer all around the world. The Pi Yao can be quite confusing to explain to some people as it looks similar to a small dragon but with wings and when understood, you will realise that the Pi Yao offers protection and auspicious luck and is also known as the lottery god as many believe by placing lottery cards under him will bring good luck.

Academy of Feng Shui Sheng Chi Lottery Numbers

Our Academy of Feng Shui Software has a lucky lottery number generator which picks numbers based on your Sheng Chi numbers. We have had endless reviews from clients who have had good money come in from using this method. If you know your personal Sheng Chi directions, you should place these under your Pi Yao or maybe take a look at our software here by clicking this link. 

The Pi Yao is one the most popular symbols used in Feng Shui and recommended by virtually all Feng Shui Masters. It is the ninth son of the Heavenly Dragon and has different names as shown above. Pi Yao lives in heaven and they are best shown sitting on Chinese coins to signify your fortune being protected, making it a powerful wealth and luck enhancer.

The history of the Pi Yao dates very far back when he broke a heavenly law and the Jade Emperor punished him by feeding him with only pieces of silver and gold and although it sounds a bit crude, his rear end was sealed which means the gold was entering him but could not leave. Metaphorically speaking, the translation of this is that when the Pi Yao is placed in a home or office, wealth is welcomed into the building and staying in the building.

Pi Yao The Pi Yao is one of the most powerful cures for protection that you can use in Feng Shui and is also a powerful enhancer but also for protection against legal problems, arguments, disputes and loss of wealth and to appease the Grand Duke (Tai Sui) which sits in the southeast in 2024.

The Pi Yao has been referred to as the Tai Sui’s pet as it always faces the area where Tai Sui is present for the year sitting in the opposite direction to appease Tai Sui and in 2024, the Pi Yao should sit in the northwest and face the southeast.

The most popular Cure used in big corporations has always been a pair of Fu Dogs although, in more recent times, many big corporations and smaller businesses have started placing a large Pi Yao outside companies such as banks, casinos and other businesses that handle high volumes of money. You have to be careful when placing Pi Yao’s as one of the most important aspects of this cure is the overall size of the Pi Yao; in traditional Feng Shui you have auspicious and inauspicious measurements and the entire measurement should fall within a Chai sector which is approximately between 0 – 55mm and this Pi Yao is nicely sited within 50mm (Chai) which is said to bring wealth creation and protection and said to bring six types of good fortune.

In traditional authentic Feng Shui measurement is so very important and even a few more millimetres on a Pi Yao would take the sector into Pi which is said to bring legal problems with government and loss of wealth. Our Feng Shui software has all the measurements built into it and it is something we have personally used with great results for many years. With size being so important, we make sure that every Pi Yao that we sell falls in line with an auspicious measurement which is very often overlooked with many Feng Shui suppliers.

The Pi Yao provides a minimum of six blessings as follows:

  1. Conducts good luck and fortune
  2. Generate good Feng Shui or earth luck
  3. Enhances wealth and riches
  4. Protects individuals and building
  5. Protects against evil forces, obstacles and hardship
  6. Brings unexpected windfall luck

Pi Yao

I was sent the following story on our Facebook page from a lady who found a Pi Yao in a second-hand store and after cleansing the Pi Yao, gave it to her friend; you’ll be amazed by the power that even a second hand Pi Yao holds.

I have a little story about a Pi Yao I found and bought from a 2hand store. I was in looking for a nice glass jug, when all of a sudden I saw this little figurine in a corner, at first I thought it was one of the temple lions and thought, what a pity it had lost its mate. But looking closer I realised it was not one of the lions, it was a Pi Yao, but not in a version I had ever seen before. I then remembered a friend of mine being intrigued by the story of the Pi Yao. So I looked at him and said: “would you like to have a new owner? because I know just the person who will love and honour you to your Heart’s content”. It felt so right to buy him, I cleaned him by putting him out in the light of the full moon and also standing in bright sunlight. and two days later he was given as a birthday present to my friend…And has he brought happiness and luck to her 🙂 She wanted to build an extension to her house for years, but the bank didn’t really want to support her, but all of a sudden there was no problem. and several other things in her life just sorted themselves out without much effort…So last month she looked around in her lovely new and spacious livingroom and said” look how much has happened, so many good things this year, and it all came about after he moved in with me” she said and pointed at her Pi Yao. 🙂

  1. Hello!

    My husband bought a couple piyao but the piyao doesn’t suit to my wrist, it’s too big for me. Can i adjust it and remove the other stone?

    1. Hi,

      That will be fine to remove pieces from the bracelet; if you can, it is best to remove one from each side so that the bracelet is evenly balanced.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

    1. Hi Jane,

      I would recommend either restringing the bracelet if it has sentimental value to you although if it is damaged, it is best to replace it.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

  2. hi Daniel

    I have bought a new Piyao black obsidian bracelet. Then I suddenly remembered I have one more bracelet and kept on bedroom (our old house on a drawer) for a long time like 5 years ago and haven’t wear it for a long time. Now I want to wear a bracelet again. Do I need to get rid the new or the old one? or can I wear them both but alternatively wearing them??

    1. Hi Dave,

      That will be fine to keep both bracelets and alternate wearing them. You can keep the bracelets in the west to enhance the annual #8 star.

      I would recommend washing the existing bracelet in water and leave it outside overnight or on a windowsill to cleanse the bracelet of any negative Qi it may have accumulated over the years.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

      1. Hi! Regarding this concern. Is piyao still in the bracelet even if hasn’t been used for a long time? Do you still need to reactivate it?
        And also can I use my double headed black obsidian bracelet for meditation? The piyao itself is made of black obsidian. Since black obsidian is used for grounding or root chakra. Thank you

        1. Hi Yam,

          I would just make sure to cleanse the bracelet before wearing it as this will help to reactivate the energy.

          Obsidian makes a great meditation crystal and this should work well for this.

          I hope this helps.

          Kind regards,
          Daniel

  3. Hi! I’m Aira. I have a double headed piyao with Tiger’s eye. My son is year of the Monkey and not compatible with year of the Tiger. Can I still put my piyao in our window during the night? Of not where should I keep it? Can I still wear it inside the house? Can I also put my piyao in red cloth togetherwith silvers and gold? I hope to hear from you. Badly need your help since I don’t want this to affect my son. God bless and thank you

    1. Hi Aira,

      That will still be fine to wear the bracelet, place it on the windowsill and place it with gold and silver.

      Some people say that certain animals cannot wear Pi Yao bracelets although this is not my belief. The Pi Yao is not in conflict with any of the twelve animals and would not cause problems although this comes down to personal beliefs.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,

      1. Good evening daniel. My husband recently got a pair of black stone pixiu statue fromhis friend as a gift. It is quite big in size about 30cm height and 60cm length but my husband loves it. I have a few worries about it though. I hope u can give me your expert advice
        1. Can we accept old pixiu from friend?
        2. The pixiu teeth looks discoloured turning gold colour?? Should i leave it be or can i paint ot black?
        3. I also notice a small chipped away stone at one of the pixiu nostril. Is it ok if we still keep it? The pi xiu is very old
        4. I heard from people saying that we should put a silver bowl containing gold and silver and coins in between the pixiu. May i know of its true? And if it is,what kind of gold and silver? Gold bar or gold bracelet?
        Thank you very much

        1. Hi Mich,

          That’s a lovely gift to get from a friend.

          There will be no problem accepting the gift as this is seen as passing on good fortune. I would leave the teeth as they are although if it really bothers you, you could paint them.

          It is not advised to use cures if there is a significant chip on part of the face although if this is very small, this will be fine to use.

          As the Pi Yao is very old, I would recommend washing him in clean water and leave him outside under the moonlight overnight to cleanse any negative energy.

          It is good to place valuable objects around the Pi Yao as an offering although this is not essential and I would not recommend this if you are placing the Pi Yao on a windowsill as this could attract thieves passing by.

          I hope this helps.

          Kind regards,
          Daniel

    1. Hi Zshayda,

      It is best to leave these cures in place and avoid touching them when possible.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

  4. Hello,

    I was gifted a black obsidian pixiu bracelet and I placed it in a mirrored tray facing the front door in the living room. I was unable to sleep all night and had a couple nightmares.my family and I currently sleep in the living room. I moved the bracelet to a different part of the house but I still was unable to sleep. What should I do? How can I stop wearing the bracelet? Is this going to harm me?

    1. Hi Sarah,

      I would recommend removing the bracelet for a day or two to see if this makes a difference to your sleep. The best place to place the bracelet would be out in the garden under moonlight as this will cleanse the bracelet of any negative energy.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

  5. Hi,I have gold card with Pi Yao and figurine 6 cm.
    I am intending to put figurine to the bedroom on SW facing NE ,but what about golden card ?
    If I am playing online lottery, where to keep it better? Next to the laptop or in the pocket ?
    Also one question about not Pi Yao but for Goddess .
    I need to have real luck in investments (gambling, on stocks etc)
    Basically my kua is 8, also my destiny palace is in NW and in the meantime Tien Yi is also in North West.
    This place is dining room. Can I put there goddess Cai Shen Poh ?
    I put her before in my shen qi (SW),but it is bedroom, I am not sure if she was ok there.
    Also NE she was put there as it is living room but it is Fu Wei for me (one master told it is also hidden for good fortune,but after I read another article ,I understood it is more for clarity and intelligence)

    I will really appreciate your help in this matter.

    1. Hi Natalia,

      The card can also be placed in the southeast, facing towards the northwest.

      If you would rather keep the card near you, you can keep it by your laptop.

      As long as the statue of Cai Shen Poh is in a respectful area and not near any clutter, that will be fine in the dining room.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

    2. I’m not lucky at all I don’t know what bad vibes surround me my father was died this year my best friend left me alone my special someone cheated on me what kind of fung shui energy should I need to get rid all of my unfortune…
      Thank you

      1. Hi Jesan,

        I’m sorry to hear about your father and hope you are coping with the loss as best as you can. I would recommend taking a look at the 2021 Flying star analysis as this will help explain which areas can cause disputes (annual #3 star) and how to resolve the issues with items you may already have around your home along with Feng Shui cures.

        I hope this helps.

        Kind regards,
        Daniel

  6. Hi Daniel,

    I bought a pixu and Im a zodiac rabbit. They said have to wear it in left hand but I wore it in my right hand on the first day I bought it.
    My pixu is silver with red band bracelet.
    I use my right hand to write is it ok if I wear it on my right hand?
    Please help to advise the proper way in wearing it and will it bring bad luck if I wear it?

    1. Hi Yvette,

      I’d recommend keeping wearing it on your right arm as you have been doing as this is your dominant wrist 🙂

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

    1. Hi Casey,

      That will be fine to place in a cabinet with a glass door.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

  7. Hi, Im a dog sign.. luckily I bought pi yao bracelet with obsidian. And I read that I should not wear Pi yao coz it will give misfortune and it happened to me. My question is can I put it in front of my door? Can I still touch it or no. Thankyou for your reply

    1. Hi Jenny,

      That will be fine to place by your door and will also be fine to touch the bracelet.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

      1. Hello good day! My fiancée bought me a black string pi yao bracelet but I read that Dog zodiac sign is not advisable to wear it. What can I do? Can I still wear this pi yao?

        1. Hi Ian,

          I personally do not see the Dog as being in conflict as my father is an Earth Dog has used Pi Yao’s around the home and office all of his life without any problems. I would recommend trying the bracelet and take it off if you do not feel comfortable.

          I hope this helps.

          Kind regards,
          Daniel

  8. hi I need advise.. I received my order black obsidian wealth bracelet from online and I got 2. can I store the one bracelet to my cabinet inside my bedroom? because I cannot use them two one at a time… and I have read fom different source that this bracelet should not kept inside bedroom. Thank you for your response

    1. Hi Lilibeth,

      That will be fine to store one in a cabinet as long as it is somewhere free of clutter.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

        1. Hi Ruth,

          That will be fine to wear a gold bracelet. I would wear the bracelet on the wrist of your writing hand.

          I hope this helps.

          Kind regards,
          Daniel

    2. Hello im year of the rabbit one of i heard that icant wear pi yao with citrine it cost me bad luck it is true

      1. Hi Maria,

        Some people say that certain animals cannot wear Pi Yao bracelets although this is not my belief. The Pi Yao is not in conflict with any of the twelve animals and would not cause problems.

        I hope this helps.

        Kind regards,

        Daniel

    3. Hi, I was born 1987, year of the rabbit and planning to buy pi xiu bracelet but I have read that it will bring mis fortune if are born year of the rabbit?

      1. Hi Jue,

        That will be fine to wear a Pi Yao bracelet if you are a Rabbit. Although the Pi Yao is part Dragon, this is only the head and would not conflict with the Rabbit. It is said that Dog’s should not use Pi Yao’s either and my father (Earth Dog) has been using Pi Yao’s for most of his life without any issues.

        I hope this helps.

        Kind regards,
        Daniel

  9. Hi. I got my Feng shui and I just want to know what the dos and donts are of using it. And also, does leaving it in the moonlight or sunlight activate it one more time after mistakenly misusing it?

    1. Hi Idowu,

      For 2021, I would place the Pi Yao in the southwest of your home, facing towards the northeast from the 3rd of February.

      I would also make sure that you place the Pi Yao away from anything that would be classed as disrespectful as the Pi Yao should be treated with respect; avoid placing it too close to a toilet, sink or somewhere messy.

      You can wash the Pi Yao with water and leave it under the moonlight to cleanse it of any negative energy before placing.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

  10. Hi, I had recently brought out my purple amethyst pixiu after putting in carton box for more than a year (didn’t unpack out after shifting house). I noticed the pixiu had changed some colours on certain areas (cloudy yellow and white), had the pixiu absorbed a lot of negative energies in it?
    How do I cleanse it to bring back its positive energy?
    Thank you.

    1. Hi Brikyn,

      Crystals can often change colour due to too much or a lack of light and should still be fine to use. To be safe, I would wash this with clean water and leave it outside or on a windowsill overnight to cleanse it of any negative energy.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,
      Daniel

  11. Can i ask,,I have read that pixiu is not compatible with the sign of dog, rabbit,and tiger…i buy a pixiu bracelet, and im the year of rabbit what should i do to the bracelet?should u wear it or should i put it in the livibg room toward the maindoor??

    1. Hi Cherry,

      Some people say that certain animals cannot wear Pi Yao bracelets although this is not my belief. The Pi Yao is not in conflict with any of the twelve animals and would not cause problems.

      I hope this helps.

      Kind regards,

      Daniel

    2. My spouse and I have bought our bracelet a day now only to find out I am a rabit and he is a tiger and some have said we shouldn’t wear them, which is a total bummer but upon reading this you are saying we can still wear it or no just leave it in the house?

      1. Hi Trudian,

        I personally do not see this being a problem; my father is a Dog and has had a Pi Yao in his office and home for many years without any problems.

        I hope this helps.

        Kind regards,
        Daniel
