To the Cantonese, the pomelo symbolises the promise of wealth. I already mentioned that the skin or rind of the pomelo can be used as a herbal cure for headaches. Besides that, pomelos are also used ward off bad luck. Washing oneself with pomelo leaves should help wash away evil or negative energies. Other than that, adding the skin of the fruit to the bath is said to help ward off bard luck. I also received a feedback from my friend, Annie, that her family hangs the skin or rind of the pomelo at the front and back door of their house to keep evil at bay.
