Pixiu or Pi Yao (pinyin: pí xiū) originally known as Pi Xie ( to avoid evil spirits in Chinese) is a Chinese mythical hybrid creature considered to be very a powerful protector to practitioners of Feng Shui. It resembles a winged lion. Pixiu is an earth and sea variation, particularly an influential and auspicious creature for wealth. It is said to have a voracious appetite towards only gold and silver. Therefore traditionally to the Chinese, Pixiu has always been regarded as an auspicious creature that possessed mystical power capable of drawing Cai Qi (wealth) from all directions. Thus, it is helpful for those who are going through a bad year according to Chinese zodiac.
