Warding off Evil: With its majestic and solemn appearance, the beast carries a powerful aura. In Feng Shui, it is widely used to suppress negative energy and protect the peace of the household. Attracting Blessings: Placing it indoors helps to stabilize chaotic energy fields, absorb negative influences, and bring auspiciousness and good fortune to the residents or the workplace. Calming the Mind: Naturally calm and averse to noise, this beast makes an excellent companion for meditation. Watching the smoke curl out of its mouth during quiet moments in a study or tea room helps soothe restlessness and settle the mind.

It is ideally displayed on a Chinese tea table, a scholar's study desk, the living room entrance, or an office, adding an air of elegance and Zen to any space.
