Read on to know more...
Which is the wealth corner of the house?According to the ancient texts and principles of Feng Shui, “Xing Yao,” also known as the wealth corner of the house, is basically the southeast sector of the house or a room. It is believed that activating this zone of the house by using the Bagua map can attract prosperity, abundance, and financial flow. This remedy helps in aligning this zone with wood element principles that enhance the career luck and opportunities through intentional cures and symbols. Here’s how you too can activate this zone of the house.
Determine the wealth cornerTo find your home’s wealth corner, it is advised to stand at your front door facing inward, then locate the southeast area using a compass or Bagua overlay on a floor plan. However, for small or individual rooms, apply the Bagua relative to the entrance, ensuring this corner remains clutter-free to allow chi circulation.
Essential colorsAdd colors such as greens, purples, and reds that represent wood and fire element hues that help nourish growth and flame energies. To attract and retain wealth, it is best to paint the walls with soft green or add purple cushions or simply hang red accents for blessings and prosperity without overwhelming the space.Wealth symbolsPlace a money plant (pachira aquatica) or jade plant in a purple pot to symbolize flourishing wealth; add a three-legged gold toad with a coin in its mouth, facing inward, or a citrine crystal wealth bowl filled with coins and gems.Water feature activationIt is also suggested that adding a small fountain or aquarium with eight goldfish (seven red, one black) in the southeast direction can help attract wealth. It is believed that doing so helps activate this zone and moving water is believed to multiply abundance and ensure it is clean and flowing toward the center of the house to prevent draining of finances.
Lighting and mirrorsAnother simple yet effective way to activate the wealth corner of the house is by brightening the zone with natural light or a prosperity lamp. As per the principles of Feng Shui, it is believed that positioning a convex Bagua mirror outside of the facing roads, or a round mirror, can also expand the corner’s energy by reflecting abundance without sharp edges indoors.Avoid clutter and negativesIt is believed that removing broken items, thorny plants, or trash can help remove hurdles and blockages in the wealth zone. It is advised to banish metal objects or white colors that weaken wood and keep the area lively yet tidy to sustain positive chi flow.
