Elephants and their symbolic meaning - Mind, body and soul - Feng Shui

Do you have a fascination with ELEPHANTS??

In China, India and Africa, the elephant is a symbol for power, dignity, intelligence and peace.
 
The elephant is generally considered a symbol of good luck and the animal is a symbol of good fortune. Elephants in Asia are symbolizing a kind of divinity and benevolence and that is why in the recent Asia there are still religious ceremonies where offering is made to the elephants, they wash them and anoint them with special oils and pigments so that the community be blessed with good will. They also symbolize wisdom, loyalty, strength, fidelity and longevity.
As a symbol of wisdom, the elephant is said to attain old age and with all its wisdom. The animal is highly revered for its strength and power. With different species, the white elephant having been chosen by Buddha was because he wanted to use it for his many incarnations. The white elephant is a rare animal and their appearance today will still be considered a phenomenon of the gods. It is the most positive animal symbol known with no negative consequence. There are several lessons we can learn from the elephant and these too are used as its symbol: strength, wisdom, solitude, strong sense of loyalty to the family and intelligence. Other communities still consider the Elephant to be a strong symbol of luck. And thus the saying goes keep a lucky elephant at the door to your house so that you can get protection from bad luck.

Is it good feng shui to have the image of elephant in your home or office? And, if it is good, what is it good for? Will the elephant bring you fame or fortune? A new love? A better job?

As with the use of any
feng shui symbol - be it a deity, a flower, an animal or a bird - first be guided by your own intuition, by your own likes and dislikes. There are no general rules for good feng shui when it comes to decorating your house with specific symbols other than your genuine liking of the symbol.

Luckily, when it comes to the feng shui energy and symbology of the elephant, few people can object to its beauty, silent power, kindness and majesty. Even though elephants are the largest land animals living on the planet today (and one of the strongest, too), their energy feels invariably kind and very, very wise.
