At almost every stages of human history, man has looked for the assistance of magic objects called talismans or amulets to  defy evil forces.

Charms with letters, numbers or abstract signs have survived  to this day. Even the modern religions with a single god have their own symbols. One of these symbols we find in almost every culture and faith for thousands of years…


In many cultures the precious little ladybug or the ladybird has been believed to bring good luck for ages.
It is said that if a Ladybug lands on you and then flies away on its own it is good luck. A rhyme can be recited to urge it to depart. It starts:Ladybug, Ladybug fly away home.
Your house is on fire and your children are gone.

Alas, panic and confusion sets in when our heroine loses the precious ring. This crisis also affects Bobbie’s mom Kate, who’d hoped that her daughter’s win would settle the hash of her arch-rival Cora Watson (Elvia Allman), whose daughter Henrietta (Susan Walther) is also in the contest. (Trivia note: Elvia Allman would later become a Petticoat Junction semi-regular as another of Kate’s rivals, Selma Plout–who, coincidentally, also had a daughter named Henrietta!) ~ Hal

How To Benefit from The Lucky Objects

Lucky objects are symbol of good fortune, good health and positive aspirations. You should display them prominently so that their symbolism will be impressed on your mind. These impressions will inspire in you positive thoughts that lead to actions that will help you to attain your goals. Different objects are used for specific goals. Certain objects are considered to be lucky, only if they are placed in the right spot, where the right spot is, depends on the type and purpose of the object. The following are some of the most popular lucky objects and where to place them; these items are available in Chinese stores.

FORTUNE FROG

Fortune Frogs are great conversation pieces. Some are very large and quite garish in color. The frog (actually a three-legged toad) holds a coin in its mouth and has strings of coins around its feet. It should be placed facing the door to catch the money of passers-by. In a store it can be on or near the cash register, facing the direction of the door.

NATURAL QUARTS CRYSTAL

Natural Quartz Crystals are very much in use by modern geomancers because if the piezo electric energy they generate. A crystal ball, a cluster or terminator, if well-placed, can diffuse its good energy throughout a room and can neutralize some type of yin chi. Sometimes multi-faceted, man-made, crystal balls are used in feng shui, but these are only capable of refracting light; unlike natural quartz, they do not generate energy. In order for them to be beneficial, they must be placed or hung where there is natural sunlight, or a good incandescent light source.

GOLDEN TAEL

In China, gold is not sold in ounces, but in taels. A Taels is slightly heavier than an ounce and has a particular shape. Imitation tael made of shiny golden metal or plastic are considered to be symbols of prosperity, they are usually placed on a fortune table.

A LAUGHING BUDDHA

This jolly fellow is a symbol of prosperity, joy, and the proliferation of the family. He is usually prominently placed in the living room, dining room or family hall.
