Caishen, also Cáishén, Ts'ai Shen, or Cai Boxing Jun, is the Chinese god of money and wealth. He is worshipped in China by followers of both Taoism and Chinese folk religions. Caishen is said to have the power to grant wealth and take wealth away. His followers especially invoke him during the Lunar New Year to ask for riches and protect existing assets. The two Chinese characters in his name mean "money" (cái) and "god" (shén).
