A feng shui dragon is a mystical creature that has supernatural powers and symbolizes prosperity.

Many Chinese cities celebrate the New Year with these magical creatures – groups of people line up in columns wearing one large robe depicting the Dragon. Any other time of the year, you can find the images of this creature all over China – on ceramics, clothing, and in decor.

Dragons are among the most popular symbols in Feng Shui – these creatures command the elements and can change their size from large to the size of a worm. A dragon in feng shui represents success, prosperity, power, good changes, good luck in love, and spiritual growth.

Success and prosperity: having the image of a feng shui dragon in your home or office will help to bring success and help achieve new heights in life.

Good luck in love: they activate and help attract love.

Power and good changes: the dragon creates good Chi energy with its every breath, and improves the life of its owner.

Spiritual growth: dragons symbolize wisdom. According to a 2000 year old legend, the souls of people make a journey into the higher realms on the back of a dragon. In addition, it is a mediator that transmits human desires to the Universe to make them come to life.

How do you use a feng shui dragon? Since these creatures are associated with water, choose one that is colored green, blue-green or golden yellow. Dragons are associated with the east (the energy of the rising sun), so it is best to place its image or figurine in the East of your home or office. Its image can be placed anywhere, because this creature is connected with all major zones; yet, it is going to be more powerful in the east. Dragons strengthen the active and bright Yang energy, so their images are best placed in living rooms or dining rooms, not in bedrooms. The image of this magic creature can decorate the east wall in your living or dining room.

Pearls: Many images depict a dragon holding a pearl in its mouths, or trying to catch the pearl. According to feng shui, the Magic Pearl symbolizes harmony and the unity of opposites, such as Yin and Yang. It is believed that a feng shui dragon without a pearl will get angry and become unable to bring good luck. So, choose the images and figurines depicting them with a pearl in their mouth.

Dragon and Phoenix: in feng shui, Phoenix symbolizes eternal love. When Dragon and Phoenix are shown together, they symbolize the link between masculine and feminine. The combination thereof helps to bring infinite happiness, love and prosperity. An ideal place for such pictures and figurines is a bedroom.

Magic Dragon Tears: Dragon tears are tears of joy that it drops looking at us from the sky. On the way from heaven to earth, the tears turn into crystals. Dragon tears in feng shui are large crystals that dissipate energy and convey a sense of joy, love and power.

Money frogs are one of the most popular feng shui symbols. This charm can draw the material well-being into a home.

In Chinese culture, a toad also symbolizes immortality. Money plays an important role in our lives, so it is worth learning how to use this amulet to attract wealth.

The feng shui toad has three legs. Usually it will hold 1 or 3 coins in its mouth, which is a Chinese symbol of wealth. Sometimes the creature will have no coins in its mouth, but it will have a slit in it where you can insert a coin. These small money frogs can even be made from a bank note with your own two hands.

The toads can be purchased in feng shui talisman stores. These symbols are sold in an array of colors and materials. When choosing a talisman for yourself, keep in mind that the more the frog looks like a real one the better. As we mentioned above, the most important point is to make sure that it has three legs instead of two or four. The best symbol is the one made of yellow shiny metal that resembles gold, or that is indeed gold.

How to place this money symbol properly? This amulet can be placed in one of a few places in your home. One good location is the living room. In the living room, put it in the left corner diagonally to the door. This is the so-called “power corner”. It can also be put near the front door creating the impression that it’s jumping into your home. It can also be placed in a fountain with moving water in your favorite sector, which will also increase your money luck. The main point is to place the money frogs facing the inside of the house, and not the other way around.

It should not be placed in the bathroom, kitchen or bedroom. In the bedroom it will fall asleep, in the kitchen it’s going to get too hot, and in the bathroom it will soak in the calm Yin energy and relax instead of bringing good luck and money to you.

If you own a house with a backyard where toads live, treat them respectfully and kindly. According to an ancient Chinese belief, a frog family living in the backyard will bring prosperity. According to the Chinese, the toad was wicked and vengeful at first. But one day Buddha came, conquered it and committed it to help people. Ever since then, the creature is paying the price for the trouble that it used to cause, by spitting out gold coins for people.

Wherever you place the toad (the zone of money, health, love, etc.) it will activate that exact zone. The money frogs are just a symbol of wealth. If you do not believe in it, the mascot will not work. So, try to believe in this helpful little creature, and you will soon see positive changes in your finances. There are many more good improvements that you can do for yourself using feng shui.
