One of my favorite Feng Shui knickknacks is the dragon headed turtle. This auspicious statue is a hybrid of two lucky Chinese animals – it has the body of a turtle and the head of a dragon. It is sold as a brass, aluminum, ceramic, red lacquer or glass sculpture. You can also find them carved out of semi-precious stones such as rose quartz or jade. The better quality ones also feature a magic square marked with numbers engraved on the tortoise shell.

 

 This is such a powerful symbol of luck, love, wealth, protection and longevity that it is ideal to place in the center of your house which also metaphorically represents the center of the body and the self. However it is also considered to be an amplifier of good fortune that enhances the sector in which it is place.

  

Unlike the money frog, which has a coin placed in its mouth the dragon headed turtle features a ribbon. To attract love, you place a piece of red ribbon in its mouth and plaice it in the southwestern sector. For health, you place a blue ribbon in its mouth and place it in the center of your home. To attract money you place it in the southeastern corner and place a gold piece of ribbon in its mouth.

  

However it is considered bad luck to have a dragon headed turtle in your bathroom or kitchen. 

  

Peace Be Still Sam.

In Feng Shui, Peach Blossoms represent love and longevity in a relationship. Your Chinese Astrology sign determines the Peach Blossom sector of any space. For instance and requires a different element to enhance it. For instance,

If you are a Monkey, Rat or Dragon your Peach Blossom Direction is in the west and is enhanced by things that are metal such as wind chimes, silver picture frames and metal bowls.

If you are a Tiger, Horse or Dog your Peach Blossom direction is in the East and best enhanced by wood. This includes small trees, wooden statuary and wooden bowls.

 If you are a Snake, Rooster or Ox, the south sector of your home it is your Peach Blossom direction and it should be enhanced with lamps, things colored red and red gemstones and statuary.

If you are a Pig, Rabbit, Sheep then your Peach Blossom direction is the North. In this case you are best to enhance it with objects that relate to water such as fountains, aquariums and bottles filled with liquids.

Of course the best thing to do is enhance all of the these areas with the usual pairs of flowers, pairs of birds and symbols that represent love.

Peace Be Still, Sam
