Staff Cecil Lee Posted May 3, 2009 Staff Share Posted May 3, 2009 1. There are two sides of the coin, here.2. In traditional symbolism interpretation, some of the older generation FS practitioners have written that if one keeps a (lone) horse figurine; it should be facing the main door. Here, under symbolism, it is said that this would imply that the breadwinner would have opportunities for travelling be it for business or pleasure.3. Thus, if we use the above argument, then, check which direction the horse is galloping and see if the painting can face towards the door and "imagine that it goes out of the home". Some take this as getting the horses be it 5 or 100 - to gain "opportunities". As these horses are either wild or no one is on the saddle.4. The above is the most common interpretation mainly by Geomancers on the way the horses should face. As firstly, the horses often are "wild" ones and as many are aware you cannot just jump onto a wild horse and ride on it. Thus, a business man often may want to have a horse painting (be it 5 or 8 or 9 or more) galloping out of their office room door to gain "opportunites" or the hope for more business networking luck etc..5. Some people (often not Geomancers nor Geomancer's input) felt that they want the horses to face inwards, as they felt that it is good to have horses running into "their home or office". If one does not have knowledge of the common practise as found under Para 2, 3 and 4, and if one feels good about it, then just go ahead doing so. As even a simple painting can either make one feel good or to a certain extent, a motivational tool. For many, it is just a painting. It depends on how one sees it.6. Thus, there is no right or wrong answers, here. Sometimes it also has to do with one's upbringing or culture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
