HORSE ON SWALLOW

A Feng Shui application of the ancient symbol of speed, horse on swallow, to harmonize the energies in some “blocked” corner of our house.

Horse on swallow is a symbol of Feng Shui which means speed. The horse is known to be a great runner, but with the help of a flying swallow, it goes even faster

Flying Horse Of Gansu. Eastern Han dynasty, 25 – 220 AD. Gansu Provincial Museum This outstanding bronze horse has become an iconic emblem of China. Racing through the skies, it treads on a swallow (base of statue) that looks up in amazement. Unlike Pegasus, the Western flying horse, the wingless Han steed is meant to be understood metaphorically rather than literally; it represents an ideal horse that can gallop so fast that it seems to outrun the wind. The sculpture is perfectly balanced on only one hoof, to complete the illusion of flight. By G41rn8 – Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=46941326

This means that if we wish to develop one of the eight aspirations (connected to the eight directions of the Ba Gua), horse on swallow will act as an accelerator. For example, if we want wealth, in addition to putting health symbols in the corner of luck in the southeast, we should place a pair of horses to accelerate and quickly realize our dreams

And if you want to have children, in addition to using the Feng Shui pregnancy stimulators (for example the pomegranate) to the southwest, shall we put a couple of horses in the lucky point of the west corner that symbolizes the descendants.

This applies to all the eight aspirations. On the other hand, for those who wish to succeed in overcoming a crisis and solve a problem, in addition to achieving success in a desired activity, it is possible to position these accelerators in the corresponding sector of the Ba Gua.

Another important direction where to place the horse on the swallow is southbound, whenever the connected Fire energy is not sufficient to expand the activity and success in the social sphere. In particular the aspect of the flight must be highlighted, to which this corner of the house is associated, by means of the symbolism of the Phoenix, another excellent Chinese symbol. Even an icon of the great bird of rebirth can help to “open” the house to the outside and therefore the world.
