Feng Shui Wealth: Invite Fortune to your Home
Often we get so caught up with our life and work that we become increasingly frustrated and stressed out. What we do not realize that there are small things by implementing which we can actually make a whole lot of difference to the way we go about doing things in our life. Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese practice of placing and arranging things in an order that helps in achieving harmony with the environment. Feng shui wealth suggests placement of certain things in a way and manner so that this creates harmony and gives monetary benefit to the person. According to Feng shui there are different elements that govern the influences of wealth, love, happiness, prosperity and other things in life. For feng shui wealth southeast is the direction and the element that governs this is wood.
So if you feel that you are not doing too well on the monetary front, it may be that you need to place things in your office or house according to the feng shui wealth beliefs. There are several things that you will have to do for practicing feng shui and realizing its benefits. One of the first things that you must do for this is begin with a space clearing procedure of your house and office. After that gradually you can go about implementing other things which will prove to be beneficial to you according to feng shui. According to feng shui the southeast corner of your house or office must be kept very clean and in proper order. The lighting of that place must neither be too bright or too dark; it must be just perfect to light up the place properly.
According to feng shui it is also suggested that you keep the place lighted throughout the day or as long as this is possible. You can also put up an aquarium that is well maintained in your work place or your house if you are working from there. Water enhances wood and you must choose bright and energetic fishes to stimulate positive energy from them and if you have nine fishes in the aquarium it is considered as an auspicious number according to feng shui. You have to be very careful while you are choosing the directions to place these things and also the elements of which these are made as this can have a major influence in the wealth that you earn and accumulate.
Chinese coins tied with red ribbons are considered to be auspicious for bringing in wealth according to feng shui. You can place the coins in the place where it is in constant touch with your money. The wallet or purse where you keep your money could perhaps be the best place to put these coins. You can display symbols of prosperity like Chinese coins and a Hotei Buddha sitting on a pile of gold coins can be beneficial according to feng shui. A pair of male and female Foo dogs placed just outside the entrance of your business establishment will help to bring in wealth for you according to feng shui beliefs.
oppo 2 purchase matching chinese foo dogs 18″ high..?
They are obv fairly modern..either made of concrete moulds or carved in limestone..asking price=$300 the pair..Q is?..how can u tell the difference between carved limestone and moulded cement (as from garden centre ornaments etc)..both have ‘cub’ and ‘world’ under each paw..along with pebble/pearl in the mouth..dont mind shelling out that money for a crafted version..but not prepared to shell out for a cheapo mass-produced mould..thnx!
1) Cement/concrete has a lot more weight to it than limestone.
2) You will be able to see somewhere especially on the bottom of the dogs a mould line where they were cased from cement. Also, between the “ears” and under the paws.
3) Limestone has a completely different feel to it than cement. If you have one of each to touch and pick up you will be able to tell the difference.
4) These days I have learned not to trust labels as most of us are aware of.
5) Hopefully you can tell if the seller is honest or not. Asks lots of questions.
6)Ask first about there return policy and make sure you save your receipt.
