Owls are considered good luck charms primarily due to wordplay on their name and their characteristics. They are symbols of good fortune and wisdom not only in Japan but also around the world. "不苦労 (Fukurou)": This is a play on words meaning "no hardship" or "not carrying burdens," and is believed to bring good luck. "福来郎 (Fukurou)": This means "fortune comes," and is believed to attract good luck. "福老 (Fukurou)": This means "to age richly" or "to age happily," and is a symbol of longevity. "Turning the head": Owls can turn their heads very far (about 270 degrees), so they are popular as good luck charms to prevent being unable to pay debts, and for "business prosperity." "Symbol of wisdom and insight": Because they are nocturnal and have good eyesight and hearing even in the dark, they are thought to "see the future" and are "guardians against misfortune," and are also called "the wise men of the forest." These multiple auspicious meanings are combined, making them widely loved by people. In feng shui, they are used as good luck items that can be expected to improve academic achievement and human relationships.
