- Sleeping
- Looks back
- Nibbles the grass
- frolics with another horse or other animal.

Also, do not buy or place in your home a figurine that is cracked, worn, has other flaws, or simply one that does not evoke positive associations in you.

Types of horses and their meaning according to Feng Shui

- A gift horse helps to attract good luck, enrichment and increase your importance in society. This horse is depicted loaded with jewelry. The gift horse, like the winning horse, must be bareback. Such a feng shui symbol should be located in the direction of the house, as if bringing jewelry into your home. The most favorable color of such a talisman is white. To enhance the effect, Feng Shui masters recommend placing a gift horse on a money napkin, so often used to attract wealth.

Why is there a painting with a horse in the house?
According to Feng Shui, a picture of a horse can be placed not only in the career sector, but also in the zone of useful people or helpers. By activating the last direction, you can soon wait for the appearance of influential people who will help change a person’s life for the better.
The horse in the picture can be depicted in different forms. So, for example, a war horse carrying a rider will bring good luck to a strong-willed, strong person who actively participates in social life. However, for softer people such an image may be unfavorable. You should also avoid paintings where the animal stands in an aggressive, threatening position.
A horse located near a pond will bring success in gaining material well-being. Canvases in which the artist depicts horses racing in a herd are very popular in China.
In some cases, the image of a horse can also affect relationships within the family. So, for example, 2 animals standing peacefully next to each other will strengthen ties between relatives and create an atmosphere of mutual understanding and love between family members.
The picture that a person wants to hang in the house should not only please him, but also evoke pleasant sensations in other inhabitants of the apartment.
Punishment
There was another type of punishment - on a stake. The accused was hung from a pole with his arms twisted behind his back, and a weight was tied to his legs. With this method of punishment, the unfortunate man's arms were pulled out of their sockets. The suspended man was beaten with a whip, could be set on fire, or had his ribs broken. There was no difference between male and female except for the ribs. They were not broken for women. Basically, in the Russian Empire, the rack is a weapon for punishing thieves.
But this type of punishment was not always applied everywhere. For example, in the agreement between Riga and Smolensk, dating back to the 13th century, it was said that the Rusyns should be given bail or put on iron, and not on the rack. But the Pskov court charter said that the rack is a punishment for those who get into court or hit the doorkeeper.
