Get Control of Your Finances Before Your Finances Control You

How would you describe the state of your finances? If your answer is “chaotic”, you need to take some serious time to straighten things out.

Adjusting the feng shui of your Wealth area can bring about significant results, enhancing your prosperity and your experience of abundance. However, it will not work on top of clutter and disorder. Don’t let your feng shui efforts will be thwarted by a mess in your office.

Overflowing stacks of paper and files in disarray are an exhibition in loss of control. Unopened mail and misplaced important documents contribute to the loss of your handle on money.

Any financial planner would agree. The top five things you need to have straight regarding your finances are:

Know what you have
Know what you spend
Know what you owe
Know what your goals are
Know your plan for getting there

This means that your papers should be in order, and easily accessible. Stay tuned for hints on how to do it.

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.
