The symbol of the horseshoe

Asian culture is a lot of mysterious and interesting and the symbol Hotey vivid evidence. There he brings good luck and happiness, as well as prosperity. As for appearance, it is a complete bald man who has a bulging belly. And he must have a bag on his shoulder, in which he carries good luck.

Hotei is a monk, but he did not follow his vows in everything, for example he could eat fish or meat, and he was quite eloquent. He did not have a permanent abode, so sometimes he had no problem sleeping outside. Once he slept in the middle of a field in a storm, but he didn’t get wet at all.

His large belly was not the result of regular overeating, but of vital Qi energy. Some claim that the monk could foretell the future but only told it to those who really wanted to know.

Where is the best place to put Hotei

It is worth noting that the placement largely depends on the purpose. For example, if one wants reputation and advancement in work, it is best to place the figure in the hallway. But the monk’s face must necessarily be facing the door. For general recognition, it is best to place the figure in the southern part of the house, and for family welfare in the east.

Many say that the deity can help in the fulfilment of wishes, and all that is needed is simply to rub his belly, but always in a clockwise direction.
