The Pi Chu is a protective heavenly creature resembling a Chinese Lion with horn(s), and little wings allowing it to fly between Heaven and Earth.

The 9th son of the Dragon King, and favorite of the Jade Emperor, the Pi Chu eats but does not dispose.  With its big infinite appetite, especially for gold, silver, and jewels, it is recommended for people who want lots of money coming in but not a lot of money going out.

Fierce guardian and loyal protector, they ward off, attack, and eat demons, evil spirits, disease, and bad luck— turning it into great wealth.

Use to suppress negative harmful energy while bestowing good fortune.

Pi Chu (regardless of whether it is the male or female variety) provides a minimum of eight blessings:

• Brings good luck and fortune
• Generates good Feng Shui or Earth luck
• Attracts wealth and prosperity
• Protects individuals, homes, and businesses
• Drives away obstacles and hardships
• Grants windfall luck
• Guards against accidents in travel
• Appeases Tai Sui and brings good favor

This Pi Chu charm features a Gold Ingot (元宝 yuánbǎo) which represents better income and financial success.  In ancient China, gold ingots were the favored form of currency among emperors and government officials.  It is a symbol of wealth and high status to energize one's money luck. 

Gold ingots were cast in a lucky "boat" shape which alludes to the popular saying:

一帆風順     yīfān fēngshùn
Literal translation: one sail, wind favorable
or “May your life go smoothly”

for an easy, prosperous life of abundance.

***

This Pi Chu charm also features 3 Chinese Coins to attract wealth & prosperity, to represent the metal element, and as a symbol of protection. 

The unique shape of Chinese coins represents balance and harmony: the square hole in the middle
represents Earth, while the round circle of the coin itself represents Heaven. 

3 coins symbolize - Wealth & Prosperity (Heaven Luck, Earth Luck, Man Luck; renewal & replenishment)

Sometimes depicted with 2 horns, the female Pi Chu, Bìxié (辟邪 bìxié, meaning to ward off evil spirits) is better at protecting.

Sometimes depicted with 1 horns, the male Pi Chu, Tiānlù (天祿; tiānlù, meaning heavenly blessing/prosperity) is better at amassing wealth.

Having a pair of Pi Chu is having the best of both worlds!
