Why This 500-Year-Old Talisman Is Trending Globally?
In a world craving spiritual balance, the Shan Gui Coin (山鬼花钱) emerges as a bridge between mystical Eastern wisdom and modern lifestyle. Crafted with sacred symbols since the Ming Dynasty, this isn’t just a coin – it’s an energy vortex designed by Taoist masters.

Why Western Seekers Love It?
1.High Practicality:
As a protective amulet, it not only keeps evil spirits away from the wearer but also symbolizes the enhancement of the wearer’s courage, allowing them to move through any environment without fear. It also represents the motivation to face challenges head-on and overcome difficulties. The power of thunder embodies a formidable natural force, making it the ultimate nemesis of all evil spirits. When evil spirits sense the power of thunder, they will stay far away, or else they will be utterly destroyed. This makes it an exceptional choice as a protective talisman.
2.Aesthetic Appeal:
The Shan Gui Coin series offers a wide variety of designs for you to choose from, each with its own unique symbolism. My personal favorite is the Rotating Shan Gui Coin. The five beads on the front represent the “Supreme Nine-Five,” symbolizing reaching the pinnacle of your career or academic pursuits. On the back, there is a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) rotating disk. When you feel restless, troubled, or indecisive, spinning the Bagua disk can help calm your mind, release negative emotions, and provide clarity for decision-making, symbolizing the path to making wise choices.
3.Combating Negative Energy and Feng Shui Malefic Stars
The inscription on the coin reads “永保神清” (Eternal Clarity of Spirit), which, in Taoist belief, represents the energy bestowed by the Supreme Lord Lao (Tai Shang Lao Jun). Ancient texts record that this energy enables the wearer to remain composed in negative environments, shielding them from external negative influences that could disturb their mind and thoughts. Additionally, it can counteract the effects of malefic stars in Feng Shui. In 2025, there are four key malefic star positions:
(1) Illness Star: Associated with health issues and misfortune, this star can cause health-related obstacles. (Location: Center of the house)
(2) Quarrel Star: Known for causing disputes and legal problems, it may lead to conflicts, disrupting peace in personal or professional settings. (Location: Northwest of the house)
(3) Misfortune Star: Linked to adverse events, accidents, and financial challenges. (Location: Northeast of the house)
(4) Betrayal/Robbery Star: This star is associated with theft, loss, betrayal, and financial difficulties. (Location: North of the house)
Hanging the Shan Gui Coin in these locations can neutralize the influence of these malefic stars and reduce bad luck.
