The world may know lucky charms but the Thai’s seem to have the inside track as it seems that practically every Thai has at least one to ward off evil spirits and bring good luck and prosperity. These charms are almost always blessed by monks and are held in very high regard by Thai society. Much of the prestige of the lucky charm is based on factors such as who made it, where it was made, the beauty of the amulet, and its reputation for bringing good luck. In short, although the majority of the people in the world may scoff at the power of the Good Luck Charms and Amulets, millions of people worldwide wear them and believe in their powers.
