The Fuk Luk Sau are not prayed to, but they must still be revered and respected.
The Fuk Luk Sau, meaning “Three Lucky Immortals / Star Gods”, are a very popular symbol to display in Asian homes or offices. They are also highly demanded by those in positions of high power, such as government officials or politicians, because the Fuk Luk Sau are believed to bring authority, success, fame and fortune.
These three star deities are strong icons of the most essential aspirations on which humankind depends; wealth, happiness and longevity. Each of these deities are often shown carrying with them different items with auspicious meanings – Fuk holds with him a scroll, which symbolizes
beneficial inherent luck; he is also sometimes seen holding a child - which symbolizes good descendant luck. Luk, who is always seen in the center of the three deities, carries a gold ingot, or a “Ru Yi” (scepter of office), and symbolizes prosperity. Sau holds in his hands a staff and a Wu Lou or a peach (the fruit of immortality). Sau is a symbol of longevity and a healthy life.
These three star gods together are a representation of inner harmony; it is said that if you prominently place the Fuk Luk Sau in a main room of your home, such as the living or dining room, they will bring unity to your family and endless good fortune to the residents of the house. According to Lillian Too, famous Feng Shui author and grandmaster, it should be displayed on a high table, in front of a solid wall in either the dining room or living room. The Fuk Luk Sau would also be effective in the office, but it must be placed behind your work desk or working area. The Fuk Luk Sau are not prayed to, but they must still be revered and respected.

The Fuk Luk Sau are rarely seen in a religious light; they are merely an icon used in Feng Shui, and so are not prayed to at altars or temples.
