How to Wear Your Ghost Month Bracelet

Wear it on your left wrist for receiving symbolism
Some traditions regard the left side as receptive. Wearers may choose the left wrist when they want their bracelet to represent support, peace of mind, prosperity, or welcome opportunities.

Wear it on your right wrist for releasing symbolism
Others choose the right wrist to symbolize letting go of negativity or emotional heaviness. Choose the side that feels most natural and comfortable for you.

For Piyao bracelets, wear the Piyao facing outward
Many Feng Shui believers prefer the Piyao to face outward, away from the body. In tradition, this position symbolizes looking toward opportunities beyond oneself.

Set your intention before wearing it
Before putting on your bracelet, hold it for a moment and focus on what you want it to represent for you—protection, calm, clarity, prosperity, strength, or quiet confidence.

Wear it daily, but treat it with care
Your bracelet is made for everyday wear, but we recommend removing it before bathing, swimming, heavy workouts, or sleeping to help preserve the gemstones, hardware, and elastic.

Keep it personal
Some wearers prefer to keep an intention bracelet for their own use. If you follow this custom and someone else handles it, you may simply pause and restate what the bracelet represents to you before wearing it again.

Ghost Month does not have to feel scary. With mindful choices, meaningful jewelry, and clear intention, the season can be approached with respect, clarity, and quiet confidence.
