What Wu Lou symbolizes and how to place the object?
The Wu Lou (bottle gourd) originates from a fruit. When dried, it is very durable and its shape render it useful as a receptacle for medicine. The Wu Lou was often carried by aged people as a charm of longevity and a charm to dissipate or ward off pernicious influences. The Wu Lou, like baguas and windchimes, is one of the most significant tools to cure many bad situations and enhance our Feng Shui. It is the powerful symbol of health and longevity. Many deities like the Sau Sing Kung (in 3 Lucky Stars Fuk Luk Sau), Li Tieh Kuai (in 8 Immortals) and Mad Monk God (Chai Kung) carry this excellent item with them to resemble their blessings to cure difficult ailment. Some said the shape of the wu lou is also a wonderful integration of heaven, earth and mankind. Deities and taoist monks even use the Wu Lou to absorb bad evil spirits into it for imprisonment. Therefore Wu Lou has the potency to absorb bad chi and negative energy. There is an infamous harmful flying star, the annual Illness Star#2 which occupies a sector of our homes every year. This Illness Star#2 brings illnesses that could lead to long term suffering and fatality eventually. For those whose main doors or bedroom doors are facing towards the direction of this star or having a bedroom in the sector of this star will have to use the wulou in this area of your house as the BEST cure for this star. The traditional use of the to cure this star is based on Yi Jing (I Ching). According to Eight Trigrams philosophy, the illness star#2 is represented by the “kun trigram”. And we know that changing the first and second lines of a trigram yields the Heavenly Doctor (Tien Yi). Changing first and second lines of “kun trigram” yields “dui trigram”. And the abstract representation of the “dui trigram” is actually the shape of the calabash. The actual dried fruit has a golden yellow color which could represent metal element. Later new feng shui masters created the bronze and brass wulou because they prefer real metal energy to counter the illness star#2.
