                <title>Pixiu</title>
                <guid>https://www.stonesofwonders.com/en_GB/c-6841700/pixiu/</guid>
                <link>https://www.stonesofwonders.com/en_GB/c-6841700/pixiu/</link>
                <description>What is a Pixiu?
The Pixiu is a hybrid creature that can look slightly different depending on the region or period in which it was made. Generally, it is depicted with a dragon&#039;s head on a lion- or dog-like body. Sometimes it has wings or a horn. And often it is depicted sitting on its hindquarters like a dog. It appears quite stable and perhaps even a little set.
The story of the Pixiu
There are several Chinese legends that explain the mythology of the Pixiu and what the Pixiu means. It is said that the Pixiu once visited the Jade Emperor and defecated all over the palace floor. As a result, the Jade Emperor sealed the Pixiu&#039;s buttocks so that the Pixiu could no longer defecate and have such an accident.The mythology of the Pixiu also discusses how the Pixiu eats valuable jewelry, silver and gold, but this never leaves his body (remember the sealed buttocks?). Therefore, the Pixiu became a symbol of abundance and wealth because he consumes treasures but never gives them up. So what does a Pixiu do? It is believed that it can receive and hold wealth for its owner.

In the figurines they sell of the Pixiu, you can see at the bottom that he is sitting on some coins.

How to activate Pixiu
There are certain things you need to know to activate the Pixiu. First, it must be placed in a metal bowl filled with gems and money to &quot;feed&quot; it and teach it to seek wealth and abundance. This should be replaced annually. Pet the Pixiu to strengthen your bond, but do not touch his mouth or eyes or allow others to touch him. caution! Give the pixiu only coin money, letter money he does not recognize.Caring for your Pixiu
If you choose to bring a Pixiu symbol into your home, take good care of it, just as you would a favorite pet. Keep it polished, dust-free and clean. You can even give it love and a pat on the head when you walk by.Ensure success for your desk
In feng shui, your desk and workplace represent your career. Representing the Pixiu would be a supportive way to improve the feng shui of your career to invite more prosperity and happiness.You can place the Pixiu in the wealth corner of your desk or office. The wealth corner is the upper left corner of your desk. If you want to locate this area for your office, stand in the doorway and look inside. The far left corner of the room is your wealth area. Make sure the Pixiu is facing the door so it can catch all the wealth and keep it safe for you.

Tips for placing Pixiu

∙ When placing a PiXiu at home, make sure its head points to a window or door for attracting money and guarding the house.
∙ PiXiu is not suitable to be placed in the bedroom. You can place him in the sitting room to fully appreciate his role. Because of its residential structure, the sitting room usually serves as the &quot;central palace&quot; of the Feng Shui home and occupies the central place of a house. If it is impractical to place Pi Xiu in the sitting room, you can place him on the windowsill of the largest window and have his head pointing outward.
∙ PiXiu&#039;s head cannot point to the front door, which is under the direction of the God of the Door and the God of Wealth. Otherwise, it will overstep the authority. For other doors, however, it is fine to look at them or not.
∙ Do not let PiXiu look at your bed; he may then start teasing you in your sleep.
∙ Do not put PiXiu over your head. Otherwise, the Pi Xiu will not collect wealth for you because he cannot see you.
∙ Do not let the PiXiu look at a mirror. Normal sunlight does not harm Pi Xiu, but not sunlight reflected from a mirror. Because PiXiu fears reflected sunlight, do not let his head look toward a mirror, or his spirituality will be affected.​
∙ Don&#039;t let PiXiu&#039;s head look at an aquarium or Buddha statue, and don&#039;t place it under a beam. Don&#039;t let it look at a computer either, as PiXiu has a terror of glare.
∙ Once the PiXiu is properly placed, do not move it randomly. Wrap the head with a red cloth before moving it to clean it.
∙ It should not be placed in the bedroom, especially opposite the bed. This mythical beast has the power to aggressively leap forward to take back the energy of wealth. Having one facing the bed will affect sleep quality with nightmares and disturb you.
∙ Do not place this symbol opposite the toilet because that is a place of filth and stench.
∙ Do not buy second-hand used Pixiu because you will never know the energies passed on by the previous owner.
∙ Is it better to have more PiXiu in the house? The answer is no. Pi Xiu is a fierce animal and they will fight each other if you have too many in the house. If you do have more than 2? or a Dragon turtle and a Pixiu, then the bigger one is the boss.

For even more information, there is a lot more online. I think its really intersting to look into.</description>

                <title>Dragon turtle </title>

                <link>https://www.stonesofwonders.com/en_GB/c-6841649/dragon-turtle/</link>
                <description>What is the Dragon Turtle?
In ancient China, imaginary and real animals were looked to for their energetic qualities and various properties. These animals were depicted in art and other decorations because of their beauty and revered for their symbolic power and significance. One is the mythical dragon turtle, which is a combination of the dragon and the turtle.The dragon turtle has a dragon&#039;s head on a turtle body. The dragon turtle is said to invite wealth and success.

Combining the dragon and the turtle
The auspicious dragon turtle combines the dragon and the turtle, two of the four celestial animals. One of the main foundations of feng shui philosophy are the four celestial animals. They are the white tiger in the east, the red phoenix in the south, the green dragon in the west and the black turtle in the north. The four celestial animals give rise to the primary concepts of feng shui that advise on how to create harmony and success between people and their built environment. The black turtle provides support, safety and protection, while the green dragon inspires growth, life and harmony.Moreover, the dragon turtle brings together the amazing qualities of both the turtle and the dragon. In most cultures, the turtle is known for its longevity, fortitude and wisdom. The dragon, in Asian cultures, represents generosity, greatness and great power.

Take good care of your dragon turtle and keep it free of dust and dirt so that it can properly do its job as a good luck charm.

Ideally, you do not want the dragon turtle facing directly toward you when you sit. It is recommended to place it in your general direction, but such that it looks past you, to protect you.

Placement in the bedroom? It is recommended to keep the Dragon Tortoise out of the bedroom and reserve him for the more active parts of the house that are suitable for his placement.

On a desk or workplace to promote career success
The Dragon Tortoise is usually recommended for feng shui applications in a home office or on a desk to enhance and promote your career success. You can place it in the career or wealth area of the home office, workspace or desk.Activate the wealth corner
Place a dragon turtle in the wealth corner of your home (called Xun in Chinese) to invite more wealth and prosperity. To find the wealth corner of your home, stand by the front door and look inside. The leftmost corner of your house is the wealth corner. You can also activate the wealth zone of your home office. To find the wealth zone of your home office, stand in the doorway of the office and look inside. The leftmost corner of the room is the wealth area.Stimulate the center of the home, the Tai Qi
The center of your home is considered a power place when it comes to feng shui because it affects all areas of your life. Try placing a dragon turtle in the center of your home to invite financial abundance and prosperity for the whole family.The Dragon turtle&#039;s head cannot point to the front door, which is under the guidance of the God of the Door and the God of Wealth. Otherwise, it will overstep the authority. For other doors, however, it is fine to look at it or not.

                <description>About me
Hi! I am Lotte.I started Stones of Wonders out of a passion for stones, I have been collecting stones myself for a long time because I think they are amazingly beautiful! My personal favorite stones are: labradorite, fluorite and smoky quartz and there many more ! there are only a handfull of stones that I don&#039;t like haha!

I practiced making pendants for a long time until I found them beautiful and sturdy enough to sell, for this I tried them myself for a longer period of time. I choose all the crystals on the site with care and love by hand, and only sell what I think is beautiful.

I hope everyone has a lot of fun with the stones they buy from me. I really enjoy making things that people can enjoy for a long time and I think that the stones that are selected get a nice place in everyone&#039;s home / life, and whether that is based on feeling, the color, the effect or the kind of stone. I like that everyone has their own reason that makes them attracted to a stone.

I hope you find something beautiful on my site, I will always do my best to keep looking for beautiful stones.

Fun fact; my logo is based on a fluorite octahedron and my favorite color. How cool is that!

Thank you very much in advance!</description>

To keep the jewelry beautiful, I recommend not to put it in water too much or to let it get wet. Most stones (with the exception of a few types of stone) can withstand this, but in the longer term it is better for the wire to not get wet to often.I have on the site:

Silver plated: The cheapest option of the 3, also stays very nice if you just take good care of it like other jewelry. (So don&#039;t get too much wet etc) I really like it, I wear it every day and they are still like new.

Silver: This is all silver so in theory it lasts longer than silver coated, same look as the coated wire but there is no copper on the inside.

Gold filled: This is not pure gold wire but wire with a few layers of gold around it so it lasts super long. So unlike coated wire which has only 1 layer of gold on top (and therefore wears faster).

If the wire is a little dull grab a cloth for cleaning jewelry and then they are actually as good as new!

To energetically clean the jewelry / stones, I recommend cleaning them with incense, (but do what you feel is right!) . For charging, I personally prefer to place them next to / on clear quartz or selenite. This works very well, but it is especially important to do what feels right with you and what works for the stone.

Before the stones leave here to their new home, I clean them one more time for everyone.</description>
