Wu Di Qian aka The Five Ancient Coins of the Five Qing Emperors (五帝錢簡介)

Rating:★★★
Category:Other

A lot of people might be wondering, why these Five Coins are widely being used in Feng Shui aka Geomancy Practices (風水), Spiritual Ceremonies and some Religious Rituals (華族宗教儀式), etc.

Reasons, cos these Five Coins are being bestowed and enhanced by the Five Qing Emperors in the Qing Dynasty.

Besides that, these Coins are made according to the Rules of Spiritual Skills (Taoist Theory) – Tian Yuan Di Fang (天圓地方). The Round shape of the external of the Coin represent Heaven and the Square shape of the internal of the Coin represent Earth.

And so, without any additional enhancement, these Coins can be used as a Charm to ward off Negative Entities, etc. So when one self is buying the Coins, remember to look out for the above description, do not just buy any form of Coins to represent the Wu Di Qian.

Nowadays, a lot of such Spiritual People have being invented other Coin Formation such as Liu Di Qian (六帝錢), Qi Di Qian (七帝錢), Ba Di Qian (八帝錢) or Jiu Di Qian (九帝錢), actually all these wont help in changing the Luck, but may result in bringing in more un-necessary issues.

Why in the Past, Spiritual People only used the Five Emperors' Coins, reasons as followed:

Firstly, who are the Five Qing Emperors?

The First Emperor of Qing Dynasty: Emperor Shun Zhi (清朝開朝皇帝順治)

The Second Emperor of Qing Dynasty: Emperor Kang Xi (康熙皇帝)

The Third Emperor of Qing Dynasty: Emperor Yong Zheng (雍正皇帝)

The Fourth Emperor of Qing Dynasty: Emperor Qian Long (乾隆皇帝)

The Fifth Emperor of Qing Dynasty: Emperor Jia Qing (嘉慶皇帝)

Secondly, why only these Five Qing Emperors are being chosen?

There are a few sayings, but after referring back to the real History, the most relevant reasons are like that:



Shun Zhi, the First Initial Emperor who so-called starts the Empire (even though, his Mother was the one who hold the Authorities). As the initial Emperor of a Dynasty, the Emperor will be blessed with the highest authorities and strong abilities and so, his Coin is being included in the Five Coin Formation.

Represent: Initial, Changing, a New Start (象征: 原先,開始,變化).



Kang Xi, the Second Emperor who fight against his Grandmother (Shun Zhi's mother) to get back the Authorities for making Decisions. Under Kang Xi, the Empire started to grow, the Society started to get stable and commoners were able to live normally, etc. Due to such reasons, his Coin is being included in the Five Coin Formation.

Represent: Prosperity, Wealth (象征: 富貴, 榮華, 財富).



Yong Zheng, the Third Emperor who strengthen the Empire by doing serious and firm decisions & planning. Besides that, Yong Zheng also forced the impossible to become possible. Due to such reasons, his Coin is being included in the Five Coin Formation.

Represent: Strength, Strong & Power (象征: 力量, 堅強, 權力).



Qian Long, the Fourth Emperor who bring in Wealth and more stable life-style for the Emperor. Qian Long, young and intelligent Emperor who willingly to accept changes and willingly accept all kinds of good suggestions in-order to make the Empire Strong and more stable. Due to such reasons, his Coin is being included in the Five Coin Formation.

Represent: Wisdom, Intelligent and Stability (象征: 智慧, 穩定, 才智).



Jia Qing, the Fifth Emperor who tried his best to maintain the Stability and Wealth-prospect of the Empire, many commoners were still be able to enjoy and lead a stable life, but after Jia Qing's Era, the Prosperity of the Empire started to decline.

Due to Qian Long's determination and believe in making the Empire Stable and Wealthy, his Coin is being included in the Five Coin Formation.

Represent: Hardship, Determination and Striving (象征: 努力, 堅定).

Because of all these reasons, the Five Coins representing the Five Qing Emperors are being used to make such Formations to ward off Negative Entities, etc.

Must such Coins be enhanced?

Like what I have mentioned earlier, due to the way the Coins are being made, such Coins are already being enhanced with the Natural Energies of the Universe. But if one self wanted to enhance the Coins with more Positive Energies, of cos it is encouraged.

Even though no enhancement is needed, but cleansing (淨化) of the new coins must be made.
