In Hong Kong, the dragon’s head is believed to be in the Tsimshatsui area, where tall, grand buildings abound. Local people maintain that there are nine dragons in this part of Hong Kong, thereby giving rise to its name Kowloon, meaning nine dragons. In Beijing, there are stunning nine-dragon walls in the Forbidden City and in the Heibei park, and in Hong Kong there is a beautiful reproduction of these walls near the waterfront in the Causeway bay area. These nine dragon walls offer celestial protection to the cities and their residents, guarding them against natural disasters.
In the Malaysian peninsula there are two dragons living along the main range of mountains. One has its head on the northeastern outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, and the other has its head on the island of Singapore, where many high-rises dotted the eyes of the peninsular dragon a couple of decades ago hence, together with other auspicious rituals and symbols, resulting in tremendous economic wealth for its people. Malaysia recently completed the Petronas twin towers, the two tallest buildings in the world, which may well represent the eyes of the Malaysian dragon.
And of course Europe is a continent that abounds with dragons. There are numerous dragons in the Alps, the most important being the five dragons emanating outward toward France, Germany, and Italy —so these and all the countries that surround the wonderful hidden abodes of fire dragons have prospered. The fortunes of European countries will surely be considerably enhanced if the major capital cities started building more skyscrapers, as this would be akin to dotting the eye of their dragons, thereby awakening them.
How to “Dot the Dragon’s Eyes”
Invite the dragon into your home and dot his eyes so he comes alive. You can use porcelain, brass, or golden dragons or paintings. Do not make your dragon images too large. When the dragon overwhelms your home the chi becomes unbalanced. Also, not all homes can sustain the powerful energy of the dragon, so start modestly — dragon magic is only effective when balance is exercised. If there are people in the home born in dragon and tiger years then the dragon is more compatible with the home. But homes with people born in dog years should keep the dragon small.
Porcelain and metal dragons can have their eyes awakened with a simple but powerful ritual. Select a dragon day from the Chinese Almanac, and between 7am and 9am in the morning, the dragon hour, using a new brush and some black ink (preferably ink block) dot the eyes of your dragon. Make sure the dragon is facing east when you do this ceremony. If you have purchased a dragon painting make certain the eyes are bright and open and, when you hang it up in your home, symbolically light up the two eyes with an incense stick.
A luck-bringing dragon can be awakened by “dotting” his eyes. You can do this using a brush and black ink block.
Placement of the Dragon in the Home
Place a small dragon sculpture or painting in your living room, if possible facing east. Always use a compass to get the direction correct. A dragon can live inside or outside the home and still bring you money. A fat dragon that looks well fed and prosperous is preferable to a thin hungry dragon, and the best image is of the dragon holding the wish-fulfilling pearl.
The dragon should always be placed facing water since the presence of yang water makes dragon symbols awaken and exude the precious breath of chi. So when you create water features in the home, like aquariums, it is a good idea to place a dragon close by. If big water — the sea, a lake, a swimming pool, or a river — is close to the home, have at least one dragon facing that body of water to bring prosperity. If you do not have any water bodies or features inside or near where you live, then place the dragon next to the kitchen sink because this water symbolizes clean water flowing in to the home.

Sending Wish Balloons to the Sky Dragons
Choose balloons that are brightly colored, and make sure you have an assortment of reds, yellows, whites, pinks, and lavenders. Do not use balloons that are blue, green, or black since you want to release yang, rather than yin, energy.
The Chinese believe that dragons fly ever upwards and that the soaring chi of the sky dragons has the power to propel all your wishes into the cosmos. A great way to communicate your wishes to the great sky dragons is to release specially prepared wish-fulfilling balloons into the skies. Buy yourself a collection of helium-filled balloons and take them to the park or any open ground. On a slightly windy day when the sun is not too bright, look for places where beautiful clouds gather against blue skies, and let your balloons go with your wishes into the universe. This is a stunning way of attracting love into your life, improving your career prospects, and of drawing forth the great healing powers of the Universe to cure someone who is ill.
Get a black felt-tip pen and compose your message. You do not have much space on which to write, so do make certain that you construct your words carefully beforehand. If you want someone to share your life with, think through the kind of partner you want. If looks are important to you put in something that directly addresses physical appearance. If financial security is important describe that too. If you have a burning ambition, write out a description of how you see yourself. If your wish is to see someone cured, write that person’s name down and describe his or her recovered state. Be as specific as you can. Remember that the goal is to send your clearly worded message into the Universe so that the winds and the waters of the environment help actualize your wishes for you.
