Put Out the Fire
Does your money “burn a hole in your pocket”?
The element of Fire is no good for Wealth. Furniture, artwork, decorative objects, and even fixtures and appliances that have properties of fire will burn up your money. Remember, the Wealth area thrives with healthy Wood energy. Too much fire will “burn” the wood energy, destroying it. Thus, destroying your finances. The element of Water can be added to a space (as described in my previous post) to put out that fire. Or, whatever is symbolically and energetically holding the element of fire can be removed – an even better solution.
Here are some examples of “firey” things:
Stove
Furnace
Fireplace
Microwave
Dryer
Electronics
The color Red
The color Orange
Triangular shapes
Flames/flame-like shapes
Too many candles
Angled windows/rooms

Making Feng Shui Work for Your Work Life: Enhancing Wealth
By Jessica Hoelzel
Ten Ways to Enhance the Wealth Area of Your Office
#1 Just Add Water
In Feng Shui, water is recognized as a symbol of flow and movement – bringing things to us. Incorporating the element of water into your space, especially in the Wealth area, can bring you good fortune. Imagine a river winding through the land, a waterfall’s cascade, waves gently lapping or crashing on shore. These images represent water as active chi. You can use water in your space to cultivate the flow and movement of chi there as well. Water can get things moving. Water can help abundance flow in your direction.
The element of water also supports the element of wood, which resides in Wealth. Wood (trees, plants) need water to grow, so adding water will nurture the wood energy, symbolically.
Specific Ways to Boost the Element of Water:
Add a fountain. Make sure it is a sound pleasing to you, and that you take good care of it. A broken or neglected fountain will have a negative effect on your wealth.
Add something black or navy blue. These colors represent water, their dark tones associated with the depth of water.
Add art depicting water. Choose a lake, the ocean, a river, stream or waterfall, whatever speaks to you.
Add items associated with water, like fish or shells.
Create an aquarium, or have a simple fish bowl with live fish.
Add items with wavy or spiraling shapes. These shapes also represent flow and movement.
