It is widely believed among us that blood groups has great influence over our personality. Some years ago, I read this article by a Fengshui practitioner saying that there is a relationship between blood groups and personality. He too concluded that people with O-blood group have the best personality. Many people may say he is wrong but there are people still believe it.

Blood group A:

A man with blood group A is diligent, methodical, steady, and nervous.

Blood group B:

A man with blood group B has originality, but is fickle.

Blood group AB:

A man with blood group AB is sociable and sensitive.

Blood type O:

A man with blood type O is durable and resolute.

Juni-shi and Chinese Zodiac

A good friend of mine asked me the differences between Juni-shi and Chinese Zodiac. Similar to ancient Chinese, Juni-shi is associated with the twelve animals and ten conditions in the lunar calendar. 

The animals includes Ne(mouse), Ushi (bull), Tora (tiger), Usagi (rabbit), Tatsu (dragon), Mi (snake), Uma (horse), Hitsuji (sheep), Saru (monkey), Tori (rooster), Inu (dog), and Inoshishi (buffalo, in Chinese tradition is pig).Japanese Juni-shi is a modify version of Chinese Zodiac. 

The ten conditions are namely: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water) and five other conditions which have less meaning today. The combination of twelve animal’s characters can ten conditions made 60-year-cycle.

Fengshui and Maneki Neko

Maneki Neko literally means “beckoning cat” and it represents a ceramic or china statuette with a raised paw.Traditional colours for the “beckoning cat” were white, black and orange. It is the usual colour combination of a Japanese bobtail.

Maneki Neko can be in difference colours. When cat is in

1.     White colour means purity.

2.     Black colour, according to superstitions, scares evil away. It is especially popular with women who want to protect themselves from unwanted followers.

3.     Red colour is also a protective one chasing away evil spirits and illnesses.

4.     Gold colour refers to wealth.

5.     Pink colour is not the most traditional one. But it gains popularity and is associated with love.

The lucky cat is most commonly used in businesses, such as retail stores, restaurants, offices open to the public; and less so in the home. The lucky cat is also often called the fortune cat and the money cat, so as you can guess it is mainly used as a wealth and prosperity cure, as well as, of course, a good luck one.

If readers really like the energy of the lucky cat, you have the option of carrying it with you, as there are numerous items on the market with the lucky cat image. Still, its best Fengshui placement is at the business entrance - to entice wealth and good customers for a prosperous

Fengshui and Three legged Toad

In traditional Chinese Fengshui cures, one of the most prominent symbols of wealth luck is the three legged toad (Chan Chu). Chinese believed that during the full moon, this creature arrives at the homes of people with good fortune. For this reason that images or figurines of the Money Toad are often displayed in Chinese living space; to draw in prosperity and be blessed with good tidings.

Do not place the toad on the floor, but always position the toad to look toward the door so it can gulp up money chi for the house or business. Place it in any positive directions to you to benefit wealth, a long life, luck and safety. If readers are interested in good news about investments, place the frog in the southeast corner of your living room. Business opportunities and career news is enhanced when a lucky money toad is placed near a cash register or in the north corner of generating income in your living space.

One thing to take note, the three legged toad should never be kept in the bathroom, bedroom, dining room or kitchen.

Fengshui and Pi Xiu

Like many of the traditional Chinese Fengshui cures, the roots of Pi Xiu (Pi Yao) symbol lie deep in Chinese mythology. With the fierce look of a winged lion, the mythical Pi Xiu can ward off evil spirits and protect its owner from harm. 

The best place is in the East sector of your living room at a position lower than eye level but not on the floor as this is seen as disrespectful. In the home it is often recommended to have a pair of Pi Xiu facing outwards towards the door or window so they can protect the family and attract money into the house. If you have moved into a new home or are experiencing bad luck then these are regarded as the most powerful symbol to change your fortunes. Many Chinese place their lottery tickets under the Pi Xiu hoping this will bring them good luck and a sudden windfall. At work place them on your desk or in the reception area facing the door as this will protect the business and attract luck and wealth.

Pi Yao can look very similar to a Chi Lin. Pi Yao (Pi Xiu) can be used either alone or in pairs. When placed as a pair, the Pi Yao becomes known as Tian Lu (Heavenly Protector) and Pi Xi (Evil Dispeller). Fengshui masters prefer a new Pi Yao never used before, as one never knows what kind of negative powers some may have accumulated through ill deeds of past owners. Readers should never site Pi Xiu in a toilet, kitchen or bedroom of your house as this will inhibit their powers.
