Tips for growing your business and improving family harmony

Ancient Chinese coins are used to attract wealth and success.

We all aspire to have a successful career and achieve happiness at home. However, our busy schedule makes it very difficult to juggle work and family time. To help you reach your goals, we’ve come up with some practical and easy feng shui tips you can use.

Contrary to popular belief, feng shui is an ancient Chinese philosophical system of creating harmony between humans and their surrounding environment. Excellent feng shui comes from making changes to self and environment that gives you peace of mind and motivation to strive towards achieving your goals. For business people, enhancing wealth and career luck ranks as the top priority when consulting a feng shui practitioner. A harmonious household also follows closely. In this article, we share practical solutions to putting you in the right frame of mind for success.

Onwards to a successful career

Homes have gone beyond just being a roof over our heads. Whether it is your workstation at home or in the office, it should always be set up in a way that allows smooth qi flow. Only then can you enjoy high levels of energy, discipline and creativity.

The layout of your desk plays a huge role in creating good feng shui.

The front is regarded as the “Front Red Phoenix” sector. This area needs to be wide and expansive for the majestic bird to take flight, bringing your career prospects to a higher level. Hence, ensure that the front of your study desk is clutter-free and organised.

Your seat, also known as the rear of your desk, encompasses the “Rear Black Tortoise” sector. This functions as your pillar of support. For a strong pillar of support, consider using a chair with a sturdy and high backing. Position it in such a way that your back is not facing the door. If your back is facing a door, it can cause distractions as you are unable to see who is entering the study. Furthermore, having your back against a door denotes missing out on lucrative opportunities (missing out on an open door) and the likelihood of encountering conniving characters (not having the door in your direct line of sight spells vulnerability).

Your desk’s left, the “Left Green Dragon” sector, dictates your level of authority and power. The right of your desk, the “Right White Tiger” sector, governs the likelihood of lawsuits and litigations. This sector should be kept as low as possible. For optimal control over career matters, ensure that your desk is higher on its left than right. Place books and files on the left of your desk instead.

You can consider using career enhancing symbols to further boost your career luck. These include:

Sceptre: Symbolising the smooth flow of matters, display this in your home office to aid in profitable returns and fulfilment of aspirations.

Crystal globe: As an emblem of connectivity, placing a crystal globe on your work desk can help promote fruitful pursuits in business.

Money makes the world go round

When talking about enhancing wealth luck, the first step is to identify the wealth position of your home. If you are a layman who wishes to find out your own wealth position, all you need is a compass – to measure the orientation of your house and determine its wealth position. Use the table below and stand in the centre of your living room with the compass to find out where your wealth position is.

After you have successfully determined the wealth position, place a coin bank there. Then, select an auspicious date and timing to make a wish with an ancient coin, which is to be put in the coin bank. Subsequently, just continue to deposit coins in it to enjoy flourishing wealth luck.

To garner even more wealth opportunities, consider using these emblems:

Crystal bowl: As a symbol of wealth storage, displaying a crystal bowl also denotes smooth progress in all matters.

Pair of ancient Chinese coins: This emblem helps attract steady wealth flow and opportunities.

A happy family is the greatest support in life

In feng shui, relationship luck, or Tao Hua, specifically refers to interpersonal connections. Excellent Tao Hua translates to strong bonds with those around you.

For couples, the most important aspect of a bedroom is the bed position, which should be compatible with the Bazi of both spouses. If the auspicious direction of the husband differs from that of the wife, a possible solution is to follow the husband’s Bazi for bed direction and the wife’s for room colour or accessories like curtains. In this way, the couple’s bedroom shall complement and benefit both, helping to enhance their health and relationship.

The kitchen and stove are important considerations when assessing home feng shui, especially since they directly impact the health of the family and marriage. It is important to note that the stove represents the female owner and having more than one may give rise to the incidence of extramarital relationships. In addition, avoid placing sharp objects like knives below the stove as this suggests violence and is detrimental to family harmony.

To boost relationship luck, we recommend placing enhancement symbols in the living room or bedroom. Such emblems include:

Mandarin ducks: Arguably the most popular romance cure in feng shui, a pair of mandarin duck figurines symbolises devotion and loyalty.

Flowers: Flowers, especially peonies, have strong healing energies, and are said to help singles find their match.

Success lies in your hands

As you look forward to expanding your business and growing your financial portfolio, it is important to know that you are the master of your destiny. Besides using the above tips, maintaining a positive and harmonious attitude shall do wonders to attracting benefactors to your side. We wish you great happiness and much success!
