How to place mascot statues to welcome fortune in the year of the Dog?
Placed in the northwest direction, in a high, clean position, the statue's size is proportional to the space... can strengthen wealth.
According to feng shui expert Nguyen Vo Uyen Mi (HCMC), Tuat resides in the northwest direction, so in the year of Mau Tuat, families should place the mascot statue in this direction. Placing the statue in a feng shui position helps activate the year's fortune, brings luck to work, welcomes wealth, and creates good energy in the family.
Placing the statue also follows many principles to welcome prosperity. The statue should be placed in a clean place, avoiding spaces with bad air such as near the toilet or trash can... Do not place it on the floor but choose a high place, a pedestal of 6 inches or more and airy, helping to create a good, stable position, welcoming a lot of energy. Homeowners should avoid hidden corners such as under windows, at the foot of stairs or places where there are obstacles pressing on the head of the statue, leading to stagnant air, which is not good for the house.
To have a good start, the homeowner can choose a direct day, direct day, direct day in the perpetual calendar or simply an auspicious day of the year to bring the statue home. If more careful, the homeowner can combine choosing a good time of day or a time that is compatible with the age of the homeowner.
Because this is a feng shui statue, there is no need to perform the opening ceremony or draw eyes on the statue before bringing it home.
“When choosing to buy a statue, the homeowner needs to pay attention to the appearance factor,” Ms. Uyen Mi said. The statue has five senses such as eyes, nose, ears... clear, not chipped. The color is elegant and bright. Unlike feng shui statues placed outside the gate to guard, which often have a strong, fierce shape, the dog statue placed inside the house should have a healthy body and harmonious, gentle lines, helping the family to be warmer and more peaceful.
The material of the statue is chosen according to the year of birth, that is, the owner's destiny. For example, if the owner is of the wood destiny, the statue should be made of wood, if the owner is of the earth destiny, the statue should be made of soil...
The size of the statue needs to be proportional to the space of the room, because if it is too small it does not have much power in terms of feng shui, but if it is too big it can easily startle people and ruin the aesthetics of the house.
