Dear Corinne,

1. The rooster, with its distinctive red crown, could perhaps be thought off by some practitioners as belonging to the fire element.

2. Alternatively, it could also be thought off as a metal element because its sector is West or (Metal element).

3. Frankly, there is no evidence to suggest that a picture of a rooster would be effective to stop the `burring of wealth'.

If you like or enjoy the picture, you may consider to place it.

4. But, some Feng Shui practitioners caution that the `rooster' symbolises `fighting cocks'.

It is common even till today to see rooster matches and gambling to see which rooster wins.

Some of the matches are quite cruel because the owners add sharp objects on the crown of the roosters so that they can hurt each other (badly).

Recently, I read in a newspaper, that, locally, in my country, during Qing Ming or clearing tombs day, a few families discovered the tombstones overturned or removed to clear space for this illegal activity.

5. I noticed, quite a few, messages on advise on where to place this or that for good luck.

Frankly, objects purchased are like art and decoration for the home.

6. A `special' Rooster figurine or painting or a three legged frog figurine are not magical and are just like any other decoration, some of us purchase for their home.

7. Occassionally, I collect good antique porcelain figurines. But, this does not necessary mean that, they are magical, give you immediate luck.

I personally collect some of these because, they are interesting and I simply find them `nice' to look at plainly as decorations.

8. In Pillars of Destiny, it is interesting to see that, one's pillars of destiny can be changed by external experience, EDUCATION and philantropy etc...

9. The Chinese, value education very strongly. Even if the parents do not have the opportunity to study, they will toil and save for their children's education.

Thus the best investment, one can have is to give one's child a better education. I believe, this is the same for everyone globally.

10. Thus spare a thought, if one wants to go out and purchase something. Why not, instead save for your child's future. Won't it even be better?

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
