EIGHT BUDDHIST GUARDIAN DEITIES
Buddhism believes that, everyone is born with the blessing of a certain Bodhisattva or Buddha! Each of the 12 zodiac signs has its own Buddhist protector. Through the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, the twelve-linked causal formula and the mutual generation of five elements, namely earth, water, fire, air and wind, Esoteric Buddhism points out that 12 zodiac signs are blessed by eight Bodhisattvas and Buddhas referred as eight natal Buddha or eight Buddhist guardian deities. You should know and show respect to your Deva Guardian. As long as you piously worship your Buddhist protector, you will be blessed to turn ill luck into good, improve your career, wealth, love, study and health, have treasures fill the home, or get promoted in official career. Regardless of the gender and Ben Ming Nian (animal year), you can wear or worship your Buddhist protector all your life!
