/ 0 Symbols for education luck
There are several Feng Shui good fortune symbols you can use to activate and enhance academic success for you if you are pursuing an academic career, and if you are a parent, for your children.
The Carp
The Chinese regard the carp as a most potent symbol of success
for education and career. This symbol of good fortune is known for its legendary valour in swimming against the current. This has made the carp a symbol of perseverance and literary and educational success.
Place a figurine or statuette (small statue) of the carp on the study desk to bring education luck. Dragon carps, usually made of wood or ceramic, should be displayed in pairs on either side above the entrance into the home. Paintings and figurines of the dragon carp would also make wonderfully appropriate gifts for a pregnant lady, to wish her an extraordinarily intelligent child.
The Elephant
In Buddhism, the elephant is one of the eight precious holy animals. It is often depicted with a lotus flower on its back upon which is seated the Buddha of Wisdom. The word for elephant in Chinese sounds like hsiang, which can also mean Prime Minister. The elephant is thus the symbol of strength, prudence and wisdom – all qualities of a good and moral leader. The elephant is thought to bring plenty of good fortune because it is believed to be the bearer of the wish-granting jewel and all manner of precious things.
Its symbolic presence in the home signifies the luck of having all one’s aspirations granted. It’s also said to be an excellent symbol for granting descendants’ luck to households. The best way to display the elephant in the home is to buy a pair of ceramic elephants and place them inside the house on either side of the main entrance door. You can place flowering plants or anything else deemed auspicious on top of the elephant.
The Shell
The shell is one of the eight auspicious objects, and it represents the voice of Buddha as well as the far-reaching essence and depth of Buddha’s teachings. Buddhists consider the shell a lucky object, as it is one of the marks on the Buddha’s footprints. Though normally known as a symbol of a prosperous voyage and used to create good travel luck, the shell can also be used to enhance study luck.
Use a fairly large conch or cowrie shell (with or without a stand) to strengthen the energy in the North-east sector or corner of your living room to create excellent education luck.
How to energize the Study Desk

Energizing the study desk, whether it is your own or your child’s, is an important matter.The first thing to do is to try to situate the study table in the North-east corner of the study, or the student’s bedroom. As the element of the North-east is earth. Thus, the best way of energizing excellent study luck for the students in your family is to display Earth Element objects like crystals and pottery or anything that symbolizes earth in the North-east corner of their rooms. This would effectively raise the ‘chi’ in that area to benefit their studies. To energize the North-east corner, just use anything that symbolizes earth. Things that symbolize fire may also be used, as in the productive cycle of elements, fire produces earth.
The crystal globe
A crystal globe is the perfect energizer for the North-east corner because of its double representation of the earth element: crystals come from the earth, and the globe represents the world/earth. You may also use crystals in other shapes, but the crystal globe is especially potent for this purpose.
The citrine crystal tree
The citrine crystal tree is another object that can be used to energize luck in academic matters. Although it’s commonly known as the “Merchant’s stone”, the citrine also enhances education, business and interpersonal relationships. These pale yellow stones are excellent for fostering emotional stability, especially when you embark on a new venture. In addition to the qualities of the citrine, the tree shape in which it is presented represents growth, making the crystal tree a powerful attractor of study luck.
There are quite a number of good fortune symbols you can place on the study desk. Choose one that appeals to you the most and use that. Don’t use all the objects suggested here as you may overdo it and the effect would be counterproductive rather than beneficial. It is often said that with the practice of feng shui, ‘less is more’.
