Why should we have an elephant statue at home or in the office? Will the elephant provide us with wealth, new love, better work?
As with the use of any other Feng Shui symbol, whether deities, flowers or animals, it is necessary to first follow your own intuition, hobbies, set goals. There are no more suitable rules for decorating a house with specific symbols than those that are governed by which symbols one of us likes and which we profess.

Symbolism of the elephant

The elephant in Feng Shui is a symbol of beauty, quiet strength, majesty and kindness. Although elephants are the largest living terrestrial mammals today, their energy is always kind.
An elephant as a Feng Shui symbol should provide protection, happiness and wisdom. Usually, the elephant is depicted with its trunk pointing upwards, as a symbol of friendship, love and happiness. If an elephant is to serve as a symbol of fertility, it should have a trunk downwards. Why so? There are several explanations. One of them is that the elephant accumulates energy in this way and that it can push away various obstacles.
The elephant is also considered a symbol of wisdom and knowledge . It is one of the sacred animals in Buddhism and is often depicted in Indian mythology. It can be used as a talisman for anyone who studies and wants to get to know each other.
Due to its strength, the elephant is a symbol of protection and stability and can be used at the entrance to the house or office as a protective element.
The elephant, as the protector of love and marriage , should stand in the bedroom in the form of a statuette.
