Fu dogs, also known as foo dogs, guardian lions, lion dogs or temple lions. Feng shui Fu Dogs, are a strong feng shui protection symbol. Fu Dogs were traditionally placed in front of Imperial palaces, temples, and government offices. Fu Dogs are also considered as traditional feng shui symbol of family wealth and social status and were placed in front of homes.
Fu Dogs are usually displayed as a couple. The male Fu Dog is holding a globe under his right paw, which signifies control over his domain and protection of his home. The female Fu Dog is holding a cub under her left paw, signifying strong maternal protective instincts.
Why to place FU DOGS?
The desire for protection should not come from fear, but rather from the understanding that there is a wide variety of energies around us, and some of those energies are best left outside your own energy field. Thus, the ancient feng shui wisdom has developed a variety of feng shui ways to protect humans and their dwellings from low and attacking energies.
How to place your Fu Dogs ?
- Identify the female and male fu dog. Make sure you know which is which by looking for these characteristics.
- Locate a space outside a door big enough for your fu dogs. One is displayed on each side of this entrance, so check there is space on each side. You might need to remove plant pots or cut back a tree to create space.
- Place the male fu dog to the left of the door. Make sure that it is elevated off the ground; either on the top step or on a wall.
- Position the female fu dog to the right-hand side of the door or window. It should be at the same height or elevation as the male fu dog.
- Turn the fu dogs so that they are facing outward, away from the building. Check they are facing the same direction. They protect the building from harm, whether this is bad energy, burglars or evil spirits. The fu dogs will not be able to do their duty if they are facing toward the building.
Very Important note: FU DOGS should always face outside the home, building, temple, palace, bungalows etc
