The patron saint of the "dog" and "pig" zodiac signs is Amitabha

Amitabha, whose Sanskrit names are amitayusa (infinite life) and amitaba (infinite light), and is also aliased as the Buddha of immeasurable life, Buddha of immeasurable light, Buddha of Buddhism in Buddhism, and King of Nectar. The secret number is quiet. He is the leader of the Western Paradise, and is collectively known as the "Three Sages of the West" with Guanyin Bodhisattva and Da Shizhi Bodhisattva. According to records, in ancient times, he was originally the Dharma Zang Bhikkhu of the worldly king of Buddha. He was enlightened by the worldly king of Buddha, and he voluntarily achieved a perfect Buddhist kingdom (the pure land of bliss), and he wanted to use the most skillful method to save sentient beings. He made forty-eight vows, thus fulfilling his desire to become a Buddha, becoming Amitabha. He is still in Amitabha’s Western Pure Land to speak the Scriptures. It is said that people who encounter him can avoid all suffering. The classics recording the story of Amitabha Buddha were translated as early as the Eastern Han Dynasty. During the Six Dynasties, the idea of ​​emphasizing the rebirth of the world of bliss was based on the belief in Amitabha. And gradually formed the later Pure Land School. With the popularity of Pure Land Buddhism in China, Amitabha became the most popular Buddha. Even the four characters "Amitabha Buddha" have become common greetings among Chinese Buddhists. Buddha Amitabha represents immeasurable light, immeasurable life span, able to silently guard people born in the Year of the Dog and the Year of the Pig, with wisdom in the sky, getting rid of worries, tirelessness, and co-creating life and deeds with society and family. Buddha Amitabha is the leader of the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. He swears to pass all sentient beings with inexhaustible aspirations. He does not give up his tragic wishes and shines on the lonely with immeasurable light. Karma and felony can be reduced. Those who hold his name will be blessed by the Buddha during his lifetime and eliminate everything. Disasters and karma are suffering; after death, it can be transformed into a pure land of bliss and enjoy all happiness. Therefore, those born in the Year of the Dog and the Year of the Pig, if they can devoutly wear or enshrine the statue of the guardian god of the zodiac of Amitabha Buddha, they will have a smooth life, and every evil will turn good. Amitabha Buddha’s birthday: November 17 of the lunar calendar (actually it is the birthday of Master Yongming Yanshou, because Master Yongming Yanshou is recognized as the return of Amitabha Buddha, so it is the birthday of Amitabha Buddha.)
