In mythology, Pixiu is a creature of great power, guarding wealth and protecting people from evil energies. Therefore, how to properly wear a Pixiu ring is extremely important. In this article, Jemmia Diamond will introduce you to this sacred creature, the feng shui roles of the fingers, and let you know which finger is best for wearing a Pixiu ring.
Which finger is best for wearing a Pixiu ring
The middle finger is the best position to wear a Pixiu ring to activate luck and retain money. According to the five elements, the middle finger belongs to the Earth element and is located at the center of the hand – where spiritual energy is most concentrated. Since wealth belongs to the Metal element, and Earth generates Metal, wearing it on this finger helps the owner attract vitality, accumulate assets, and prevent financial loss in a sustainable way.
In addition, depending on your personal wishes, you can flexibly choose other fingers:
- Thumb (Wood element): Brings health, peace, and expresses authority.
- Index finger (Fire element): Promotes ambition, power, and career advancement.
- Ring finger (Metal element): Focuses on preserving wealth and preventing asset-related risks.
- Little finger (Water element): Enhances diplomacy, wisdom, and helps business and work go smoothly.

How to choose a Pixiu ring
For a Pixiu ring to possess spiritual power, you should choose a product made from natural jade with a shape featuring large buttocks, a wide mouth, and strong horns. Jade or natural gemstones carry the energy of heaven and earth, with a better ability to ward off evil spirits and harmonize positive energy than artificial materials.
- Appearance: The Pixiu must have a large belly, a majestic and vivid appearance, as if in a fighting stance. The carved details must be meticulous, refined, and free from chips or damage.
- Expression: The Pixiu’s eyes must be sharp and lively to observe and seek wealth for its owner.
If you want to increase your fortune, choose a 1-horn Pixiu. If you want to ward off evil and resolve bad luck, you can buy a 2 horn Pixiu. However, do not choose a creature with an overly fierce appearance or a bizarre shape. Its energy is too powerful, and if not handled carefully, it may attract bad things that you cannot control.

How to choose a Pixiu ring
What is the feng shui meaning of a Pixiu ring?
A Pixiu ring symbolizes attracting wealth and protection, and it only reaches its full effect when chosen in colors that match the owner’s destiny element. This is a sacred creature, symbolizing money only coming in and never going out, helping the owner protect wealth from interference by negative energies.
- Choose according to your destiny element: You need to choose gemstone colors that are generating or compatible. For example: People with the Metal element choose white/yellow; Wood choose green/black; Water choose blue/white; Fire choose red/green; Earth choose yellow/red.
- Taboos: Absolutely do not let others touch the Pixiu’s eyes or mouth, as this will cause the sacred creature to lose its spiritual sharpness. Do not wear the ring during sexual intercourse or in places lacking solemnity such as the bathroom, to avoid defiling its spiritual energy.

What is Pixiu?
Since the Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD), Pixiu has appeared in ancient texts. It was described as a mighty creature with dragon scales, a lion’s head, antlers like a deer, and wings like a bird.
Legends about Pixiu
Legend says that Pixiu was the 9th son of the Dragon King. When it was born, it carried a beautiful radiant aura, so it was greatly loved by the Dragon King. Instead of eating food like other animals, Pixiu only ate gold and silver.
Later, Pixiu was entrusted by the Jade Emperor to guard wealth in the heavenly palace. Once, after drinking too much and eating a lot, Pixiu defecated in the great hall. Furious, the Jade Emperor punished it by striking its buttocks. From then on, this creature lost its anus and could no longer excrete. Therefore, feng shui masters have used it as a sacred creature to attract wealth, luck, and never let assets diminish.
Another legend says that Pixiu was born without an anus. Therefore, it died immediately after birth, causing the Dragon King immense sorrow. Out of compassion, the Jade Emperor revived it and made it the guardian of heaven’s treasury of gold.

How many types of Pixiu are there
According to recorded accounts, Pixiu has up to 26 variants and 49 incarnations. Today, the ancient incarnations have faded away, and people only recognize Pixiu in two basic forms:
- Tỳ hưu thiên lộc (天祿): this is the male Pixiu, with one horn on its head. Its task is to go out and attract wealth, seeking gold and silver for its owner.
- Tỳ hưu tịch tà (辟邪): is the female Pixiu, with two horns on its head and a much fiercer appearance. The task of this creature is to guard the wealth brought back by the male Pixiu. It has the ability to ward off evil, eliminate disasters, and prevent loss of money.
In feng shui, Pixiu is often displayed in pairs to ensure the best energy. Sometimes, they are also used individually depending on the purpose. But no matter what, this remains a sacred creature. Therefore, you need to know how to properly wear a Pixiu ring in order to maximize its effects and avoid major taboos.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Should the Pixiu ring face outward or inward?
You must wear the Pixiu ring with its head facing toward the fingertip (outward). This way of wearing it helps Pixiu easily observe and attract wealth from outside to its owner. Absolutely do not wear it with the Pixiu’s head facing into the palm, as this will cause the sacred creature to "swallow" the homeowner’s own wealth, leading to financial loss.
Which hand should women wear a Pixiu ring on?
Women should wear a Pixiu ring on the right hand in accordance with the feng shui rule "Men left, women right." Wearing it on the correct hand helps women activate positive energy, balance yin and yang, thereby better supporting both finances and family life.
