In ancient China, people believed that carrying this token could help ward off minor misfortunes, accidents, and negative influences in daily life. It's not for attracting extreme wealth or love, but for preserving the most precious thing of all: everyday peace and safety.The plaque itself is often plain, without elaborate carvings. This simplicity represents a 'blank slate' where no bad things are written, allowing you to invite peace and good fortune into your life."

It's considered the most Yang substance—full of light, heat, and active energy—making it supremely powerful in repressing dark, cold, and negative Yin energies (like evil spirits).
