About Us
About Us
Honestly, we weren't sure how to start writing this page
Most "About Us" pages are pretty formal—full of "mission statements" and "core values" and all that.
But we wanted to be more direct.
What does TAIJIAURA do?
We sell Kaiguang jewelry. The kind that's actually consecrated at Longhu Mountain Celestial Master Temple.
Why do we do this?
Because there are too many fakes in the market, and we couldn't stand watching it anymore.
That's it. Pretty simple.
How It Started
In 2021, I visited Longhu Mountain as a tourist.
It was supposed to be just regular sightseeing, but I happened to witness a Kaiguang ceremony at the Celestial Master Temple. The scene was... how do I put it... pretty impressive. Not in a performative way—it was just very serious, very traditional.
When I got back, I searched online for "Kaiguang bracelets." Found tons of them. Prices ranging from a few dollars to hundreds, all claiming to be "authentically consecrated."
I wondered: With so many claiming to be "authentic," which ones actually are?
So I bought a few to test. The result... well, let's not go there. They were just ordinary jewelry with zero energy.
That's when I thought: What if I made a real one myself?
Getting Started
I reached out to Longhu Mountain Celestial Master Temple asking about collaboration. At first, they thought I was a scammer (laughs).
It took several trips and bringing lots of materials before we slowly built trust.
When the first batch came out, I wasn't even sure myself:
- Would anyone buy them?
- Would the price be too high? (Because authentic Kaiguang really does cost more)
- Would customers believe us?
The first month, we only sold 3 pieces.
But the feedback from those 3 customers kept me going.
One of them said: "Finally found a real one. I bought 5 or 6 before and they were all fake."
Where We Are Now
We've been doing this for almost 4 years now.
The team is still small:
- Me
- An old master who handles material selection (he's got a temper, but great eye for quality)
- A designer (often argues with the old master because they have different aesthetics)
- Two customer service reps (they know the products better than I do)
We go to Longhu Mountain once a month:
- Bring new products for consecration
- Sometimes we have to wait because we need the right auspicious timing
- Sometimes bad weather delays the ceremony
Honestly, it's pretty inconvenient.
People have suggested: "You could consecrate a bunch at once and stock them to sell gradually."
We tried that, but it didn't feel right. Does energy weaken over time? We're not sure.
So we stick to monthly trips. It's tiring, but we sleep better at night.
What We Do Well
1. The Kaiguang is real
We can guarantee this. Every ceremony is documented with photos and videos.
2. Materials are natural
Cinnabar is cinnabar, obsidian is obsidian, crystal is crystal. All natural. Costs more, but we can't compromise on this.
3. Returns are simple
Wore it and felt nothing? Just return it. No questions asked, no fees deducted.
What We Don't Do Well
1. Shipping can be slow sometimes
We don't keep stock—everything ships after consecration, so sometimes there's a wait.
2. Customer service replies aren't always instant
Small team, so when it's busy you might wait a few hours. Sorry about that.
3. Prices aren't cheap
Real Kaiguang, real materials—the costs are what they are. We'd love to make them cheaper, but we can't.
4. Not many product styles
We don't chase variety. We only make what we're confident we can do well. So there aren't many options.
About This "Energy" Thing
People often ask: "Does energy really exist?"
Honestly, we can't explain it clearly either.
We've seen:
- People say their luck improved after wearing our pieces
- People say their sleep got better
- People say they met helpful people
But some people wear them and feel absolutely nothing.
Our understanding is:
- Energy might be real, but not everyone can sense it immediately
- Some effects might be psychological, but psychological effects are still effects
- What we can guarantee is that the Kaiguang and materials are authentic—as for results, it varies by person
That's why we have a 30-day return policy.
No sensation? Return it. We won't take it personally.
Some Real Feedback
The good:
- "After wearing for two months, things really did get smoother"
- "I can feel the warm energy"
- "Finally found a real one"
The not-so-good:
- "Wore it for a month, didn't feel anything" (refunded)
- "Shipping took too long" (sorry)
- "Why so expensive?" (because costs really are high)
We're putting it all out there. No hiding.
Why Choose Us?
If you want:
- Authentic Longhu Mountain Celestial Master Temple Kaiguang
- Natural materials
- Easy returns
We might be right for you.
If you want:
- Low prices
- Fast shipping
- Lots of style options
We're probably not the right fit.
We know we're not for everyone. And that's okay.
Final Thoughts
Running this brand is pretty exhausting.
High costs, low margins, and we get questioned a lot.
But every time a customer says "it really works," it feels worth it.
We're not some big brand. Just a small team trying to make something real.
If you're willing to give us a try, we're grateful.
If it doesn't work out, just return it. No need to feel bad.
That's all.
