The necessary connection with Ganesha

To have Ganesha in your decor – or any other mythological, religious or historical figure – you need to have a connection with it. If you do, it will certainly work as a healing element for Feng Shui. This deity is very powerful in Indian culture, it has the symbolism of the elephant, which also has a lot of power in Chinese technique. One version of Ganesha’s story says that he was decapitated; it was Lord Shiva who switched his head with that of an elephant.

The elephant is a strong healing element of Feng Shui. And the bulging belly of Ganesh has a symbolism similar to that of the smiling Buddha, of joy, satisfaction and abundance. Ganesha also has several arms (between 4 and 16, depending on the representation) which enhances its gift to eliminate complications.

When and how to use Ganesha in Feng shui

There are numerous possibilities that guide us to place Ganesha in the house. Ganesh is one of the most revered deities in India. Its representation makes it recognizable among all, a god with an elephant face. Ganesha is the idol to eradicate blockages and protect the home.

Depending on its location in the house, its role will be different, more or less strong, more or less linked to prosperity.

Anyone would like to have an image in their house that symbolizes protection; one that would help them eliminate the difficulties in their life, right? Well, Ganesha can be precious in any home, especially when you are embarking on an extended and hard journey; also when you are starting a new business, making a big change or taking a new step in your life.

You can place it in the bagua area of your life that needs help or simply place it on an altar:

  • Put it in the north position, if you need success in life;
  • If you need to eliminate complications in relationships, for example, put it in the Northeast;
  • Place your Ganesha in the northwest, if you need more prosperity;
  • If you need to promote family energy, put it in the west.

You should never position it, like any other deity, on the floor or in low energy areas, such as in the bathroom, laundry or garage.
