Introduction: Beyond Luck
Feng Shui is not about magic or blind luck. It is the ancient art of arranging your space to work with the natural flow of energy, or Qi.
When this energy flows freely in a positive way, it helps your goals, including making more money. This guide takes away the mystery and gives you real ways to create abundance.
We will give you a complete, straightforward look at how to use your space as a tool for attracting wealth.

The Core Idea: Cures
So, what are feng shui wealth cures?
They are changes, additions, and objects you place in your space.
Their job is to unblock, boost, and attract the flow of good energy (Qi) for wealth and plenty.
It's important to know that "wealth" in Feng Shui means more than just money. It includes chances, good contacts, helpful people, and feeling secure.
Finding Your Money Corner
Before placing any cures, you must find the right spot. Putting a strong cure in the wrong place won't work and might even cause problems.
This first step turns theory into a real map for your home.
The Two Main Methods
There are several types of Feng Shui, but two ways are most common for finding the wealth area: the Classical Compass school and the BTB Bagua.
The Classical method uses a Luo Pan (a Feng Shui compass) and when your building was built, which can be hard.
For ease and good results, we suggest the BTB Method. It is simple and perfect for beginners.
A BTB Bagua Guide
Follow these steps to find your main wealth corner, known as Xun in the Bagua map.
-
Stand at Your Front Door: Stand at the main entrance, looking into your home. This is where you start, no matter which way your home faces.
-
Picture a 3x3 Grid: Think of a tic-tac-toe grid laid over your whole home. The row with the front door is the bottom row.
-
Find the Farthest Left Corner: Look to the far back-left corner of this grid. This spot is your main Wealth Corner.
We suggest drawing a simple map of your home to help you see this. Mark the wealth corner with an "X".
A Problem Area?
What if your wealth corner is missing because of your home's shape? Or what if it's in a bad spot, like a closet or bathroom?
This happens often and there are fixes.
If the corner is in a bathroom, wealth energy can drain away. A simple fix is to keep the bathroom door closed and put a full-length mirror on the outside of the door. This pushes the energy back into your living space.
If the corner is missing, you can "anchor" it by placing a heavy object like a large rock outside the home where the corner would be.
Or you can just find and boost the wealth corner of one key room, like your office or living room, using the same BTB method.
10 Powerful Wealth Cures
Once you know where your wealth corner is, you can start to boost it with specific cures. Each cure works in a different way to attract and enhance the Qi of abundance.
Here are ten of the most powerful and proven feng shui wealth cures.
Cure #1: The Money Plant
The Principle
Plants show the Wood element, which rules the wealth corner. Their growth upward stands for your wealth growing.
How to use it
Put a healthy plant in your wealth corner. The Chinese Money Plant or Jade Plant are great choices because their leaves look like coins. The plant must be healthy. A dying plant means dying wealth and should be removed right away.
Cure #2: Flowing Water
The Principle
In Feng Shui, water is the main symbol of wealth and cash flow. Moving water shows money and chances flowing into your life.
How to use it
Use a small, clean indoor fountain. The sound should be nice, not too loud. Most importantly, the water must flow into the center of your home, not toward a door or window. This brings wealth to you. Avoid still water, as it shows stuck finances.
Cure #3: The Wealth Bowl
The Principle
A wealth bowl is a personal tool for bringing what you want. It acts as a holder for your wishes and a magnet for abundance.
How to use it
In our home office, we made a wealth bowl that reminds us of our money goals. We started with a pretty ceramic bowl. The bottom was filled with raw rice, which means having plenty and being stable. On top, we added crystals like citrine and pyrite, eight I-Ching coins tied with red string, and a few small fake gold bars. It is a very personal and working cure.
Cure #4: Citrine Crystals
The Principle
Known as the "Merchant's Stone," citrine is a crystal that is said to bring wealth and keep it from leaving. Its sunny color also brings up good energy.
How to use it
Put a piece of raw or smooth citrine in your wealth corner. You can also put a small piece in your wallet or cash register. Unlike many other crystals, citrine does not hold bad energy and never needs cleaning.
Cure #5: The Arowana Fish
The Principle
The Arowana, or Dragon Fish, is a valued symbol of wealth, power, and good luck in Asian cultures. Its large, shiny scales look like coins, and it is thought to keep away bad energy.
How to use it
Keeping a live Arowana is a big job. An easier and just as good way is to use a high-quality figure or picture of an Arowana. Put it in your wealth corner to invite strong prosperity.
Cure #6: Strategic Use of Color
The Principle
Colors carry certain energy types. The wealth area is linked to colors that boost its element energy.
How to use it
Use wealth colors in your decor. Purple is the color of kings and wealth. Green shows the Wood element and growth. Gold and red are linked to luxury and good fortune. You can add these colors through pillows, art, rugs, or even a painted wall.
Cure #7: Mirrors to Magnify
The Principle
Mirrors are the "aspirin" of Feng Shui; they can fix many problems. For wealth, they are used to double the energy of what they reflect.
How to use it
Put a clean mirror to reflect something that shows abundance, like a nice view of a green garden from a window or a bright money plant. In a business, a mirror placed to reflect the cash register doubles your sales in spirit. Warning: never put a mirror to face the front door, as this pushes all incoming energy, including wealth, right back out.
Cure #8: The Money Frog
The Principle
The Three-Legged Money Frog, or Chan Chu, is a myth creature that is said to show up during a full moon near homes that will soon get good news about more wealth.
How to use it
Put a money frog figure in your wealth corner, near the entrance of your home, or by your desk. It should face into your home, like it's about to hop in, bringing money with it. Never put it on the floor; a low table is best.
Cure #9: I-Ching Coins
The Principle
These are round coins with a square hole in the middle, showing the union of Heaven and Earth. They stand for wealth that is blessed and safe.
How to use it
Tie three, six, or eight coins together with a red ribbon or string. The red color turns on their energy. You can put them in your wealth corner, tape them to your money files, or carry them in your wallet to bring wealth wherever you go.
Cure #10: A Clutter-Free Space
The Principle
This is the most important cure. All other fixes don't work in a messy space. Clutter makes stuck, bad energy (Sha Qi) that blocks the flow of all good Qi, including the energy of wealth.
How to use it
Before adding any cures, clean up your wealth corner well. Remove anything that is broken, not used, or not loved. A clear, open space lets fresh, rich energy come in and move freely. This act alone can make a big change.
Personalizing Your Remedies
General advice only goes so far. True Feng Shui skill comes from making the cures fit your own space and goals. Not every cure is right for every room.
Using this next level of knowledge takes your practice from just placing objects to smartly shaping your home's energy.
Aligning Cures with Space
What a room is for decides which cures work best. A water feature that brings active energy to a home office would be bad in a bedroom, where calm energy is needed.
Use this table as a guide for placing the most effective feng shui remedies for wealth in the key areas of your home.
| Room | Best Cures | Cures to Avoid |
|---|---|---|
| Home Office | Water feature, Money Plant, Citrine on desk, Money Frog facing your chair. | Too relaxing items, dim lighting, anything that cuts focus or work. |
| Living Room | Wealth Bowl, Art showing abundance (like lush scenes, flowing water), good use of color. | Anything broken, in bad shape, or items that bring sad memories. |
| Bedroom | A Wealth Bowl kept in a closed box or drawer, Citrine in a nightstand, a pair of Mandarin ducks for relationship wealth. | Never put a water feature or mirrors facing the bed. This active energy hurts sleep and can harm health and relationships. |
The Five Elements
To add more detail, we can use the Five Element theory. This theory says that everything is made of five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. These elements work together in cycles.
The Wealth Corner (Xun) is a Wood Element area. To make it as strong as you can, you want to use cures that support Wood in the growth cycle.
The cycle works like this: Water feeds Wood, and Wood feeds Fire.
So, the most powerful cures for your wealth corner will be from the Water and Wood elements.
- Water Element Cures: These "feed" the Wood of the wealth area, helping it grow. This includes water features and the colors black and dark blue.
- Wood Element Cures: These directly boost the area's own energy. This includes healthy plants and the colors green and brown.
By knowing this, you can see why a plant (Wood) and a small fountain (Water) are such a classic and strong mix for the wealth corner.
5 Common Mistakes
Even with the best plans, it's easy to make mistakes that can block or even reverse the effects of your feng shui wealth cures.
Knowing these common errors can save you from trouble and help you fix why past efforts may not have worked as you hoped. Seeing the problem is the first step to fixing it.
Mistake #1: Set and Forget
Placing a cure and then ignoring it is a big error. Feng Shui cures are not magic charms; they are energy tools that need your care.
A dusty money frog, a dirty fountain with dried-up water, or a forgotten wealth bowl loses its power. They start to gather stuck energy, which is the opposite of what you want.
Clean your cures often. Add fresh water to your fountain. Hold your crystals and state your wishes again. This keeps the energy active, bright, and working for you.
Mistake #2: Unhealthy Cures
The state of your cures is key. They must be bright, whole, and clean in energy.
A dying plant shows draining money. A chipped crystal or a broken figure gives off Sha Qi, or bad energy. Using these is worse than using no cure at all.
Always pick the healthiest plant, the brightest art, and cures that are in perfect shape. Your cures should lift your spirits when you see them.
Mistake #3: Wrong Placement
Placement is everything in Feng Shui. A strong cure in the wrong spot can cause problems.
We have already mentioned some key placement errors, but they need saying again because they are so common.
Never have water flowing out of your home. Don't put a mirror right across from the front door. Never put active water features and big mirrors in the bedroom. These are basic rules that protect your energy.
Mistake #4: Ignoring Foundations
You can't build a strong house on a weak base. In Feng Shui, the base is a clean, well-kept space.
Dripping faucets, dead light bulbs, or mess in your wealth corner will hurt any cure you put there. A leak, in particular, is a strong sign of your wealth draining away.
Use this list for a quick "Wealth Area Health Check":
- Is the area totally clean and free of mess?
- Are there any leaking faucets or pipes nearby? Fix them now.
- Is the lighting in the area bright and uplifting? Replace dim bulbs.
- Are all items in this area (lamps, clocks, etc.) working well?
Mistake #5: Lack of Intention
Feng Shui is an energy practice that links your inner world and outer space. Placing an object is only half the work.
The other half is your intention. When you place your money plant or your citrine crystal, take a moment. Hold the object and clearly state your wish for it. "May this plant grow strong, and may my wealth grow with it."
Feel thankful for the plenty you already have. This sends a strong signal to the universe that you are ready for more. Your belief and intention are what truly turn on the cure.
Conclusion: Your Ally
Your space is not just a backdrop to your life. It is an active player, always affecting your mood, energy, and chances.
By shaping your space on purpose, you turn your home or office from a plain setting into a strong ally on your path to money success.
You are not waiting for luck; you are actively making a good place for wealth to grow.
Your 3-Step Action Plan
Feeling too much? Start small. Lasting change comes from steady, doable steps.
- De-clutter: Start with just your Wealth Corner. Spend only 15 minutes today clearing out anything that doesn't belong.
- Identify: Use the simple BTB method to find your home's main Wealth Corner. Draw it on a piece of paper.
- Place One Cure: Choose one simple, strong cure from our list. A healthy green plant is a perfect start. Place it with clear, good intention.
A Final Thought
Wealth is about more than your bank account; it's a state of mind and energy. Your home should be your biggest supporter, a place that feeds your dreams and lifts your spirit.
By using these feng shui wealth cures, you are sending a clear, strong message to the universe, and more importantly, to your own deep mind: you are open, you are ready, and you deserve plenty.
