Swallows
Swallows, according to feng shui and the beliefs passed down by our ancestors, are known as auspicious birds, celestial maidens, or signs of prosperity and harmony in the household. As such, when swallows enter a home, it is considered a very fortunate omen. In ancient times, it was noticed that swallows often built nests in the homes of wealthy families. Therefore, if you find swallows flying into your home or nesting there, it is a sign of good fortune. In the near future, the homeowner may receive good news, experience success in their studies or career, or witness a joyous event within the family.
Bees
In feng shui, bees are creatures that symbolize diligence and good fortune. They are also considered to embody the “Yang” element. As such, the presence of a beehive in a home signifies an increase in yang energy for the family. Therefore, when a beehive appears in a home, it is a prediction of good luck in terms of wealth, prosperity, happiness, and joy in the near future.
Additionally, in Chinese, the word for “bee” is homophonous with the word for “phoenix” in the mythical creature phoenix, further indicating good luck and auspiciousness. When you see a beehive forming in your home, it is also a sign of blossoming love. This suggests that you will have a happy family and may welcome a new member in the near future.
Turtles
Turtles are one of the four sacred animals in Vietnamese culture. They also represent health and longevity. In terms of spirituality, turtles are revered as sacred animals.
If a turtle appears in your yard, it is considered a sign of wealth. While this belief may be somewhat superstitious, it is a tradition that has been passed down from our ancestors and should not be completely dismissed. Therefore, if a turtle suddenly enters your home, do not chase it away.
