One of the most popular applications of Feng Shui is, without a doubt, the attraction of wealth and abundance. While good Feng Shui throughout the entire home is essential for overall well-being, there is a specific area of your home that is directly connected to your financial prosperity. This area is known as the Wealth & Prosperity Corner, or simply, the Money Corner.
By identifying and activating this powerful corner, you can create a powerful magnet for financial opportunities, increased income, and long-term abundance. As a Feng Shui master, I have seen remarkable shifts in my clients' financial situations after they have applied these simple yet profound principles. Activating your wealth corner is like telling the universe you are open and ready to receive.
This guide will teach you exactly how to locate and activate the Wealth & Prosperity corner in your home, your room, and your office, using the powerful principles of Feng Shui.
How to Find Your Wealth Corner
There are two primary methods in Feng Shui for locating the Wealth Corner. The most common and accessible method for beginners is the BTB (Black Sect) Bagua.
- The Method: Stand at the front door of your home, looking in. The far-left corner of your home from this position is your primary Wealth & Prosperity area.
- Applying it to a Room: You can apply this same principle to any single room. Stand at the door of the room looking in, and the far-left corner is that room's specific wealth corner.
The Elements of Wealth: Wood and Water
The Wealth & Prosperity area is governed by the Wood element, which is nourished by the Water element. Therefore, the key to activating this corner is to introduce a strong and healthy presence of these two elements.
- Wood Element: Represents growth, vitality, and expansion.
- Water Element: Represents flow, movement, and the flow of money.
Top 8 Cures to Activate Your Wealth Corner
Once you have located your Wealth Corner, you can activate it using these powerful cures. You don't need to use all of them; choose the ones that resonate most with you.
1. Introduce a Thriving Plant (Wood Element)
A healthy, vibrant plant with lush, rounded leaves is the number one cure for the wealth corner. It symbolizes growth and vitality.
- Best Choices: The Jade Plant (Money Plant) with coin-shaped leaves, the Money Tree (Pachira aquatica), or any healthy plant with soft, upward-growing leaves.
- Avoid: Spiky plants like cacti, as they create sharp energy.
2. Add a Water Feature (Water Element)
A small, flowing water feature is a powerful way to activate the flow of money.
- The Rule: The water must be clean and constantly moving. Stagnant water creates stagnant finances.
- Direction of Flow: If possible, position the fountain so the water flows inward, towards the center of the room, to direct money to you.
- A Vastu-compliant water fountain can be a beautiful and effective choice.
3. Use the Colors of Wealth
Incorporate the colors associated with the Wood and Water elements, as well as the color of royalty and riches.
- Green: The color of the Wood element and growth.
- Brown: Also a Wood element color, representing stability.
- Black or Dark Blue: The colors of the Water element.
- Purple: Strongly associated with abundance and royalty use as an accent.
- Gold: The universal color of wealth ideal for frames or decorative objects.
4. Place a Wealth-Attracting Crystal
Crystals carry a powerful and stable energy. Placing the right crystal in your wealth corner can amplify your intentions.
- Citrine: The "Merchant's Stone" for attracting wealth and success.
- Pyrite: "Fool's Gold"a strong magnet for money.
- Green Aventurine: The stone of opportunity and financial luck.
5. Hang a Mirror
A mirror can be used to double the energy of your wealth cures. For example, placing a mirror to reflect your beautiful wealth plant can symbolically double its power.
6. Use Images of Abundance
Art and imagery are powerful activators. Hang a picture that represents the kind of wealth you want to attract.
- Examples: A lush forest (Wood), a beautiful waterfall (Water), or any imagery that makes you feel abundant.
7. Keep it Well-Lit
A dark, gloomy corner cannot attract vibrant, Yang energy. Ensure your wealth corner is well-lit natural light or a beautiful lamp both work. A lamp (Fire element) can fuel the energy of growth.
8. Declutter and Keep it Clean
This is the most important step. A cluttered wealth corner signifies blocked finances. Keep this area clean, organized, and free of any junk, trash, or dead plants. A clear space makes room for new abundance to flow in.
What to Avoid in Your Wealth Corner
- Trash Can: Never place a trash can here you'll symbolically throw wealth away.
- Bathroom: A bathroom in the wealth corner is challenging; apply cures from this Feng Shui Bathroom guide.
- Clutter: Piles of bills, dead plants, or mess will stagnate finances.
- Heavy Metal: Too much Metal can "chop" Wood and hinder growth use sparingly.
Conclusion: Cultivate Your Prosperity
Your home is a living energy field that constantly interacts with your own. By identifying, cleaning, and activating your Wealth & Prosperity Corner, you send a powerful signal that you are ready to receive abundance.
Feng Shui is not magic; it is the art of creating a supportive, harmonious environment that lets you thrive. Tend your wealth corner like a precious garden nurture it with intention, keep it vibrant and beautiful, and watch your prosperity grow.
