Obsidian Eight Guardian Deities Pendant with Necklace (Colored Obsidian) Guardian One: Thousand-Armed Guanyin The guardian deity of those born in the Year of the Rat is Thousand-Armed Guanyin. He is also the monthly guardian Buddha for those born in the eleventh lunar month. Guanyin once vowed to save all sentient beings, but as there are countless beings, Guanyin felt somewhat overwhelmed. Thus, Guanyin divided into forty-two great compassionate Bodhisattvas, aiming to benefit and bring peace to all sentient beings. Those born in the Year of the Rat often encounter numerous hardships throughout life; only Thousand-Armed Guanyin can protect them for their entire lifetime.
