The Money Frog is always seen sitting on a bed of treasure, carrying two strings of coins and biting one in the mouth. Money frogs are a common sight in Asian business and homes. They are often placed beside the cash register or facing the front entrance to attract wealth luck. Also known as the "three legged toad" the money frog is told of in a great and well known legend. There was once a beautiful maiden married to a highly ambitious man. Her husband was so ingenious he was able to attain the elixir of immortality from the Goddess of the West, Hsi Wang Mu. But this man's wife was envious and so stole the elixir of life from her partner. The gods punished her by transforming her into a three-legged frog that was sentenced to live on the moon. Because of her greed the three-legged toad is always surrounded by wealth. She has two coins in her mouth and a bed of gold surrounding her. It is believed that she will fully emerge every full moon, bringing her wealth and prosperity with her. The money frog is thus a celestial and welcomed creature for the prosperous energy she shares.
