@Sasa, In Chinese cultural, Feng Shui, the ‘Hu Lu’ (also known as Wu Lou ) is a versatile tool used to “capture” negative energy and “store” good fortune. Its placement depends on whether you want to improve health, attract wealth, or ward off negative energy… the others one is called ‘Wu Di Qian’ (Five Emperor Coins) consisting of copper coins from the Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, and Jiaqing reigns of the Qing Dynasty) for Attracting Wealth & Prosperity, Warding Off Evil & Neutralizing Negative Energy, Protection Against "Petty People”, Safety & Peace & Boosting Luck & Success… :wink:
