Hi Cecil,
I've got a statuette of two dragons facing each other. The dragons have been carved from multi layered(horizontally) and different colored crystal(violet, green, brownish and clear crystal). Each one is breathing out, creating an orb in the center. Both dragons have four claws. I've read that it can be placed to 'guard' the main door, but since they are facing each other how can this be done? Also one of the dragons appears to be an older dragon, is this of any importance?

Dear Kam Wah,
Since the two dragons face each other, you have to take `them' as decorative art work.
It is really no harm displaying them as a centre piece. It will not affect or impact your home as:
1. It is a four claw dragon and not five claws.
2. They are not `lone' dragons which usually is used to face the main entrance door i.e. each dragon face `both' sides of the main door. As mentioned in a previous mail, dragons should face the main door or face out of the house e.g. thru a window pointed towards a sha qi. As a dragon breathes fire, it is good to destroy a metal sha qi e.g. a flag pole or a lamp post as Fire destroys metal under the Five elements concept.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
