The 8 Buddhist Prosperity Symbols

The  parasol  symbolizes the protection that the Dharma offers to all living beings by protecting them from negative influences, illnesses, obstacles, misfortune, etc.

The  dharma wheel  symbolizes the setting in motion of the Buddha’s Teaching and its dissemination.

The  fish  symbolize the fact that people who practice the Dharma need not fear drowning in the ocean of suffering because they can move with the flow through right insight and action.

The  infinite knot  symbolizes the interdependence of all phenomena, an aspect of Buddha’s wisdom.
