Gourd - Money comes in...Money doesn't go out!

The popular name for the calabash is bottle gourd. It is particularly auspicious in both Chinese and Japanese cultures and has a wide range of applications.

 

The gourd is known as hulu in Chinese. The first letter, hu, is a homophone of the words meaning blessing and "to protect or guard". Small children used to have hulu tied to their backs in the past in case they fell into a river, stream, or ocean. The hulu is a common charm used to ward against illnesses and evil spirits.

 

Numerous Taoist immortals, including Iron-Crutch Li, were seen carrying gourds in Chinese mythology. The immortals also used the gourd to store medicines, elixirs of magic, and other substances.
