Every body needs good luck and good fortune. Having good luck is as much about having a positive attitude as being "lucky". But why take chances? Here's a few tips on how to invite good luck and good fortune into your home.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Lucky Horseshoe
  • Four Leaf Clover
  • Lucky Rock
  1. Step 1

    Find a lucky horseshoe. If you know someone with a horse or have a public stable this should be easy to come by - horses need new shoes all the time. You might also find a good luck horseshoe in an antique or thrift shop or at a garage sale. Paint the shoe gold or silver to make it more attractive and display it on your wall or bookshelf. Remember to point the ends "up" so the luck doesn't run out.

  2. Step 2

    Find a good luck Four Leaf Clover. This is a great activity for a summer day at the park. Can't find a wild Four Leaf clover? Then buy a lucky Shamrock plant from your local nursery.

  3. Step 3

    Feng Shui your house for fortune. This is the ancient Asian art of inviting good energy into your home and life. In the Western method of Feng Shui, the back left corner of any space is the "wealth" area. Find this spot by standing at your front door facing inside - this is the front of the home. While looking into your home the place in the left hand back corner of the house is your wealth zone. Make sure this room is kept clean and neat. Place a bowl of coins in this room and keep everything in good repair.

  4. Step 4

    Find and carry a lucky penny. Instant good luck!

  5. Step 5

    Carry a good luck stone. Maybe it's a stone from your favorite park or one you collected while on vacation. A stone in your pocket may not bring fortune, but it will remind you of happy memories. You can also buy a gemstone to bring you the right kind of luck: garnet for luck in your career or crystal for general good luck. See the resource below for more lucky gems.

Tips & Warnings
  • Items that you find are naturally more lucky.
