What is the charm of jade gourd? Everyone from kids to seniors wear it!

When it comes to gourds, we are all familiar with them. There is a saying among the people that "If there is a gourd in the house, the family will be rich", which means that every household must place at least one gourd in order to attract wealth and prosperity. It can be seen that gourd is a must-have lucky charm for the home.

In the history of the Chinese nation, gourds have been worshipped by many ethnic groups as the ancestor of mankind.

In myths and stories, gourds are always associated with gods and heroes, and are believed to be magical objects that bring fortune and luck to mankind and exorcise demons and evil spirits. Many gods and miraculous doctors also carry gourds on their backs or hang gourds around their waists, such as Li Tieguai among the Eight Immortals, the God of Longevity Nan Ji Weng, and the monk Jigong.

Therefore, gourd has been a symbol of fortune and luck since ancient times, and is also a treasure for protecting the home.
