A couple of birthdays ago, my son gave me the gift of two plants growing in adorable pots he knew I would like -- one in the shape of a cat and the other an elephant. For no reason at all I posted a photo of them on my Facebook page and a friend responded with, "Elephant trunks should always be upward for good luck!"Needing all the help I can get in the luck department, I decided to do some research before deep- sixing the clearly unlucky elephant planter. Good thing, since a Google search netted the following statements:
"The spiritual significance of an elephant with its trunk pointed upwards is associated with good fortune and luck. This belief stems from ancient civilizations and cultures, where the elephant was revered as a symbol of strength, power and stability." -- spiritual mojo.com
"An elephant with its trunk down is used as a symbol for good fortune and abundance. Placing an elephant with its trunk down on your kitchen table will invite fortune and abundance into your house." -- Angelicalbalance.com
