True, such talismans should be selected taking into account the personal characteristics of the owner, and not only on the basis of general Feng Shui recommendations.

Tiger in Feng Shui

One of the oldest manifestations of courage and strength is the tiger, which, as a rule, is white in color according to Feng Shui. This animal is one of the four main defenders of the home. It is no coincidence that the most famous feng shui painting of a tiger in China shows a predator guarding a house.

Tigers also act as good luck talismans when placed above the front door on New Year's Eve. Then the whole family is provided with his patronage. In addition, some Chinese provinces believe that the tiger in Feng Shui has significance for birth healthy children and a successful marriage.

A predator with an open mouth and bared fangs helps add status. It enhances the leader’s energy and helps protect against evil forces. Keeping this figurine is allowed only if there is a dragon talisman in the house.
A Feng Shui painting of a tiger can be on a fabric basis and imply only the head of the predator. A similar talisman in China is hung on gates. It is also allowed to use paper images as curtains, and Feng Shui also allows images of a tiger to be used as a basis for creating toys and bedding.

When choosing a tiger figurine, you need to be sure that there are no people in the house born under the signs of the Rooster, Rabbit or Boar according to the eastern horoscope. Otherwise, the risk of premature death of such family members increases.

Please note that any of the directions of light in the apartment will correspond to a specific animal (you can read in our magazine). For the white predator this is the northeast. According to Feng Shui, the tiger zone for a water rat, for example, is not very favorable, but for dragons it is not prohibited.

Spider in Feng Shui

In Feng Shui, the spider is the constant meaning of creative energy. The spiral web in this case personifies the entire process of the universe. In a large-scale sense, the Spinner represents the creator of the planet, forming the web of time. In addition, according to ancient legends, spiders are identified with the feminine principle.

Interestingly, Feng Shui gives the spider a divine and cosmic meaning due to the structure of this creature. The eight legs act as the sum of the winds of change and the cardinal directions. Therefore he is identified with the wheel of life. If you choose a spider as a totemic protector, it will always warn you of danger and, conversely, congratulate you on the results of smart decisions.

A sign of approaching happiness in China is a descending spider. What is the symbol of Feng Shui in this case, this eternal worker? Of course, family luck and prosperity in all areas.

The spider symbol will help you become far-sighted and do only the right things. You can also keep a small spider talisman made of expensive materials in your wallet to attract money and preserve your accumulated savings.

Feng Shui butterflies are used to activate the love sector only in pairs. You can also hang a picture with a whole group of butterflies, but one image will not add any benefits to the marriage. The ideal location for a butterfly in the bedroom is the ceiling above the bed. Placing the talisman in the southwest also helps improve communication with everyone you know in general.

A ceramic multi-colored butterfly brings a festive mood and positive changes to life. What is the symbol of what in Feng Shui is a wooden butterfly? This is the harmony of spouses and general well-being.
