Your elephant will come with an information paper saying the following:
Protection, strength, good luck, prosperity, wisdom and fertility are the main feng shui energies brought by the symbol of elephant into any space, be it home or office. The elephant’s trunk has a complex language of its own, and this is the detail you would pay most attention when choosing an elephant as a feng shui cure.
Elephant’s trunk is both very sensitive and very strong as is used for a variety of purposes – from drinking to picking food to greeting friends or warding off enemies. For most feng shui applications, the elephants are usually depicted with the trunk up, as this represents the showering of good luck. The trunk down symbolizes longevity or fertility.
Be creative! Your elephant can be used anywhere you wish. You might display your elephant in the bedroom to strengthen love and faithfulness in relationships, or near the door or entrance in the office to enhance power, strength and wisdom. It also can go on any shelf, desk or work surface.
