The 7 Horses Painting – And Why It's Not Just a Fancy Frame from Lajpat Nagar
In Indian Vastu Shastra and Feng Shui-inspired decor wisdom, the 7 horses painting is essentially the motivational poster of the spiritual world—but make it auspicious. It's widely believed to gallop wealth, success, and unstoppable momentum directly into your home… and no, it's not sponsored by any racecourse.
Why 7 Horses?
Let's break it down with a splash of mythology, a dash of energy logic, and a tiny bit of zodiac spice:
Represents the Sun God's Chariot:
The Sun (Surya Dev) is traditionally depicted riding a magnificent chariot pulled by seven white horses. These aren't just celestial Uber drivers; they symbolize the seven days of the week, the seven chakras, and the seven colors of the rainbow. The direct translation of this symbolism is: balance + energy + an unstoppable glow-up.
Symbol of Speed and Progress:
Horses, by nature, do not do pause. This artwork is the visual equivalent of a firm directive: "Stop waiting for Mercury retrograde to end—just go." It's considered perfect for those who tend to procrastinate more often than they manifest.
Drives Away Stagnant Energy:
Whether it's that one perpetually unused room in your house or a persistent sluggishness in your finances, the powerful energy of the 7 horses is believed to break inertia and actively invite motion—be it financial, mental, or emotional progress.
Boosts Career and Fame:
If positioned correctly within your space, this painting is said to unlock significant professional growth, bring widespread fame, or provide much-deserved recognition. Essentially, it's considered the 7-horse express ticket out of mediocrity.
Where to Place It?
Direction:
Always position the painting on the
South wall
(believed to attract fame) or the
East wall
(associated with growth and new beginnings).
Rules:
The horses in the painting should always be depicted
galloping forward
, never looking back like a dramatic soap opera scene.
All horses must be shown
full-bodied
, with no cut-off legs or heads in the image.
Avoid paintings with
black or aggressive red backgrounds
.
Don't Place If:
The painting itself feels chaotic, broken, or overly aggressive in its depiction.
It is placed behind your bed (this can reportedly cause subconscious chaos).
It's purchased purely to "look nice" without any underlying intention—energy responds to purpose, not just aesthetics.
