Feng Sui Money Tips
Do you know where your financial
"power spots" are? The contemporary methods of feng shui associate
prosperity issues with the back left corner of any space. Stand at your front
door facing into the house; your wealth area is at the back of the house on the
left-hand side. There's also a wealth area within each room: facing in from the
doorway, it's the corner area in the back of the room on the left-hand side.

Where are the wealth areas within your office, living room, kitchen, and
bedroom? Now that you've identified your money power spots, here are some quick
and easy ways to apply feng shui to these spaces:
1. Clear out any clutter from
these important areas.
Clutter is a sign of stagnant energy, and clutter in
your money power spots can clog up your cash flow. Getting rid of clutter is
one of the most powerful ways to shift the energy of your power spots into high
gear.
2. Fix things that are broken.
Anything that doesn't work as it should is a sign of something wrong in the
area of your life that corresponds to that part of your space. Examine each of
your money power spots to look for anything that needs repair.
It's time to do
something about that loose doorknob, non-working light switch, stuck file
drawer, or clock that doesn't keep correct time, to name just a few possible
examples. Remove items like these from your power spots or fix them so they
work properly.
3. Enhance your power spots with
symbols of prosperity,
such as a bowl of coins (add your loose change to it
every day), a "lucky bamboo" plant, or anything that symbolizes
success and prosperity to you. There are lots of Chinese luck symbols available,
but you don't have to use them unless you want to.
A picture of your dream
house, or a model of that luxury car you long for, is an effective money symbol
because it has personal meaning for you.
4. Accent your money areas with
the colors green and purple.
Green symbolizes vitality and growth, and
purple is the color of wealth. Place a bowl of green and purple grapes (real or
artificial) in the wealth area of your kitchen, to symbolize abundance filling
your home. If you use real grapes, it's okay to eat them, just add more from
time to time so the grapes remain fresh and the bowl is always more than half
full.
5. Pay attention to how you
handle money every day.
Do you keep paper money neatly sorted in your
wallet or money clip, or is it jammed in there any old way, or crumpled up at
the bottom of your pocket? Clean the clutter out of your purse and wallet, and
start handling your money as though you value it.
6. If you neglect your money, it
will neglect you, so be sure to balance your checkbook regularly and pay your
bills on time.
Put your checkbook in an attractive cover (choose green,
purple, red, blue, or black) and keep it in the wealth area of your desk -
that's the rear left corner again -- or in the wealth area of your office.
7. Live generously.
Money is
a form of energy, and it needs to flow through your life, not just into it.
Hoarding and scrimping work against more coming in, while giving generously
within your means makes space for even greater abundance. If you don't yet have
ample money to share, give as generously as you can of your time, energy,
compassion, and appreciation.
8. Take a few moments every
evening to think about all the good things that happened to you today and to
express your gratitude for what you have received.
Small things count, too,
so it's okay if there's little of the spectacular on your list most of the
time. It's not what happened that's important; it's getting in the habit of
focusing on the positive side of things every day that matters. The more you
notice, appreciate, and express gratitude for blessings received, no matter how
small, the more good things will come your way, including money.
A true experience of prosperity is
determined not by how much money you have, but by how well you notice and enjoy
what is already present in your life. The formal name for the wealth area is
"fortunate blessings" - as you de-clutter, repair, and accessorize
your money power spots keep this broader meaning in mind.
When you celebrate
being rich in friends and family, or rich with laughter, or the richness of
your spiritual life, or even being rich in air and sunshine if nothing else
seems to be going well for you today, material blessings will come to you more
readily as well.
