How to Use the Power of a Feng Shui Dragon

By James Brickman

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.

How Feng Shui Brings Prosperity

By Candace Czarny

If you wish to gain wealth and prosperity, the Feng Shui tradition states this requires both the correct attitude and the right conditions. When flow of chi in your home or workplace is blocked by obstacles, a struggle hindering prosperity ensues. Removing obstacles and freeing energy is part of applying Feng Shui. It is wrong to believe prosperity is solely about possessing money or owning things. Feng Shui is about consistently focusing on achieving and maintaining a sense of abundance and safekeeping. When considered from a spiritual perspective, abundance is not specifically restricted to financial wealth, but focuses on an abundance of all the desirable aspects in life: balance, family, health.

Feng Shui is an effective tool in helping you reach your goals no matter what they may be. If your aim is true wealth and prosperity, you require an environment that works with not against you. If the environment remains static, it works against you. Since your environment affects your thought patterns, you are likely to become ensnared by it, dragged down. Your environment should be a symbol of your prosperity and reflect who you are and where you are going – one that exemplifies the intent to act. At this point, you should consider Feng Shui. If chi energy flows freely, it will move you forward towards your goals.

Ironically, to achieve prosperity, one of the first steps in applying Feng Shui is to remove all clutter in your life and from your environment. All that extraneous material blocking doors and windows, the old clothes and furniture collecting dust mites, can act as an inhibitor. Through Feng Shui, you learn to remove all such obstacles and liberate your space. The negative energy held by dead plants, broken and damaged furniture and uncompleted projects does not contribute to expanding your wealth and well-being. Clutter can be defined as anything unfinished, unresolved or unused. If you use Feng Shui, you can deal with the clutter and free yourself.

Clutter slows down chi energy, but, in many instances, environmental energy is moving rapidly, speeding through the area, as swift as money flying out the door. Once you utilize Feng Shui principles, you act quickly to restore the balance between too much and too little material.

In addition to removing obstacles, Feng Shui involves the accumulation or introduction of positive energy. When certain items are placed properly, they draw in the good energy that contributes to prosperity. From positive motivating objects and symbols of wealth, to coins and family photos, a variety of objects can play a role in manufacturing the right type of energy in your home. Feng Shui principles guide you in the process of adding the specific colors, objects and special features to your workplace and residence that contribute to prosperity. Feng Shui will even identify the “wealth corner.” Of all areas, this place requires special attention to neatness and cleanliness and must be designed to bring positive, prosperous thoughts to mind.

A further note: in introducing into or adding positive symbols and energies to your environment, you are not concentrating on what you lack, or on a sensation that your possessions are insufficient in some manner. Feelings of craving and dissatisfaction do not contribute to prosperity. In utilizing the principles of Feng Shui, you concentrate on gratitude, which, in turn, creates a sense of abundance. Feng Shui demonstrates two objectives: how to surround yourself with symbols of prosperity and wealth and how to imbue your environment with positive, forward-moving energy. Both, acting together, will help you bring to fruition your goals.

How to Use Feng Shui For Prosperity

By James Brickman

From time immemorial, people have searched for happiness, harmony, love and wealth.

Using feng shui for prosperity allows us to use subtle energies to achieve prosperity in everything. This knowledge can help find love, strengthen relationships, find a vocation, climb the corporate ladder, gain wealth, improve health, and more.

The teaching involves the use of symbols (charms, amulets) for success. One of the most popular symbols of feng shui for prosperity is the vessels. A vessel represents unity and harmony, and stores your desires and aspirations. This bowl can be filled with any items. The main thing is that these objects symbolize what you want. You can have multiple vessels as well.

Try to choose a bowl made of metal (silver, gold, copper), or ceramic vases. The vessel should be squat and rounded. Also turn your attention to its neck: it needs to be broad, but not wider than the middle of the vase. It’s easy to get into such a vessel, but it’s hard to get out of it.

When you find a suitable container, consider what to fill it with. The stuffing is the main thing in this talisman. Fill the bowl to the brim, so as not to have gaps in what you want.

Three principal objects to consider include soil, Chinese coins, and regular money. Ask a successful and wealthy person for a handful of soil (e.g., soil from a plant vase), and pack the soil in a red bag. Obtain some Chinese coins with square holes in the middle, string nine coins on a thread and pack them into another red bag. Now, use real money in the amount of 988. For example, take 9 dollars and 88 cents. If finances allow, take 988 dollars. String these on a string and pack them into yet another red bag.

Start filling the bowl. Put the three red sacks on the bottom. Add a lot of semi-precious stones: coral, malachite, topaz, agate, and amethyst. You can use the jewelry made of these stones, or use rough stones. Remember: The mascot cannot do without the main symbol of feng shui for prosperity – the gold. Put at least one gold item in the bowl. Fill the remaining space with objects colored in gold. For harmony, you can add dried flowers, cones, leaves, and seeds to your vase.

You can go even further. You can put paired figures of animals inside: elephants, horses, fish. You can also add a lotus flower to this idyll. You can put a ring on the bottom of a small bowl, and place it inside the main one. The ring means endless movement. For the embodiment of the sky, draw the sky and put the picture into the vessel.

For the bowl of wealth to help, it needs to be placed properly. Place it in plain sight in your bedroom. Consider placing it in the southeastern part of the room – this will symbolize the desire for harmony and light. Do not put the bowl where there may be strangers, such as in the living room.

Create a good mascot by the rules of feng shui for prosperity, and the material costs involved in it may come back to you a hundredfold.

Feng Shui Beginners: How to Use Feng Shui to Enhance Your Luck

By Lynn Lee

Feng Shui is not a dish best served warm with some oyster sauce. It is the art of tuning you in with Mother Nature, so that she may notice you, stroke your head gently and impart upon you all of nature’s secret energies of wisdom, love, power, luck and wealth. People all over the world, including Chinese people have turned into the more antiquated recesses of history and have been using feng shui to enhance their prosperity and ensure their longevity. This is some literature for those not in the know, a feng shui for beginners so to speak – instructing all on how to use feng shui to enhance your luck.

Feng shui is using the power of colours, arrangement and design structures to make any living or working space sort of a tuning fork or sponge that can absorb as much good energy as it can to give you prosperity, luck and wisdom. Adversely, you could be stuck in a situation where the reverse is true, bad colours and odious arrangements make for the ‘scarecrow’ effect – driving away ‘Chi’ or good energy.

What we are concentrating here is on luck and I will explain a bit on that as well. Ancient masters of old China, well schooled in the arts of feng shui have divided luck into three bite sized and packaged portions. ‘Tien’, also known as luck of the heavens, ‘Ti’, a luck spawned from earth and ‘Ren’, the best luck of all, created from the tools of humanity and the individual.

Now Tien is the preset luck, it all depends on time of birth, location and family history. Ti and Ren however are entirely up to you. Ti or Earth Luck is the one you have the most control over. This luck is resonant with the energies of nature and they flow within the world we live in at every turn. This is also where feng shui is most applicable because these are the very energies or ‘Chi’ that you must tune to enjoy a lifetime of good luck and prosperity. The totality of the approach is this, what colours you use and how your house is arranged will decide how much and how often these energies will call on you and make themselves comfortable in your abode.

What you put in your house is also very important. Dried flowers, fake plants or anything with thorns or sharp jagged edges may just cut a swathe into the good energies and chase them away. Feng Shui identifies eight segments of life – career, relationship, health, travel, children, family, education and fame. Each of them has a place in any living and working space and anyone can use what they have or Feng Shui specific objects like crystals and stones to augment and control the amount of ‘Chi’ travelling through the house as well as balance the yin (masculine) and the yang (feminine) energies of the house – maintaining a balance that is ideal for wealth, luck and prosperity to grow. So use this feng shui for beginners guide as your first step towards enhancing your luck today.
