【**The Origin of the Ping An Kou**】
There are many stories about the origin of the Ping An Kou, but two main theories prevail:
1. Jade Bi
The Jade Bi was an ancient ceremonial artifact primarily used for blessings and prayers. It is characterized by its circular shape, both externally and internally. However, traditional Jade Bi were often large and inconvenient to carry.
As time passed, the Jade Bi faded into history, and the modern Ping An Kou is essentially a miniature version of this ancient artifact.
2. Ancient Coins
The Ping An Kou bears a resemblance to ancient Chinese coins. While coins have a round exterior and a square interior, the Ping An Kou is round both inside and out.
Ancient coins, with their strong metallic energy, are believed to possess the power to absorb energy, surpassing even gold and silver, thus offering protection and good fortune. This belief led to the creation of the "Golden Coin Sword" artifact in Taoist traditions.
However, wearing actual coins as personal adornments could be perceived as ostentatious. Thus, wise ancestors designed the Ping An Kou using jade, creating a pendant that is both aesthetically pleasing and symbolically rich.
【**The Symbolism of the Ping An Kou**】
People are drawn to the Ping An Kou not only for its classic and versatile design but also for its auspicious meanings.
1. Peace and Safety
As the saying goes, "Ping An Kou, locks in peace." The primary symbolism of the Ping An Kou is "peace and safety," reflecting people's simplest and purest hopes.
Frequent travelers or drivers often choose a Ping An Kou pendant or car charm to wish for safe journeys.
2. Wealth Attraction
Given its resemblance to ancient coins, the Ping An Kou also symbolizes the attraction of wealth and prosperity.
3. Family Happiness
The Ping An Kou's consistent roundness, both inside and out, signifies completeness and fulfillment in all endeavors. For couples, it represents a harmonious and blissful relationship. The character "扣" (kòu) can also imply togetherness, symbolizing two intertwined rings, mirroring hearts connected. This makes the jade Ping An Kou a popular choice for tokens of commitment.
4. Academic Advancement
Wearing a Ping An Kou is believed to protect a child's physical and mental well-being. More importantly, its smooth, flowing lines and clear form symbolize a focused mind and academic success.
