Solid Wood Daoist Wooden Dou (木斗) with Yin Yang Bagua – Ritual Offering Vessel for Bai Dou Ceremony & Feng Shui Wealth Altar Decor

This exquisite object is a traditional Wooden Dou (木斗), a sacred vessel used in Taoist rituals. It is specifically designed for ceremonies such as the Bai Dou (拜斗), a rite for worshiping the Big Dipper to pray for longevity and prosperity. While it serves as a unique incense burner and altar centerpiece, it is also a powerful symbol of abundance in Feng Shui practice.

The Wooden Dou (木斗) is a sacred Daoist ritual implement, not merely an incense burner. Its primary purpose is for the Bai Dou (拜斗) ceremony, a profound Taoist rite focused on worshiping the Big Dipper Star Lords to petition for longevity, peace, and cosmic blessings.

During the ritual, the Dou is filled with rice, representing the universe and sustenance. It holds ceremonial tools like scissors, ruler, and mirror, each symbolizing the cutting of misfortune, measuring life’s path, and reflecting truth. While incense may be offered within it, its core function is as an altar vessel for making offerings and facilitating communication between the earthly and the divine. This makes it an essential object of spiritual heritage and practice.
