It is important to surround yourself with images and items that speak to you of money energy and the experience of financial abundance. The images you choose will be a personal choice, as we each have different associations, or ideas, of how the energy of wealth feels and looks like.

If you decide to go for traditional Chinese feng shui cures, be sure that you actually do like them. Also make sure that the traditional feng shui cures work with your home decor and that you like them!

You have to have a good energy exchange with a feng shui item in order for it to work. It is best to choose your feng shui cures wisely.

Examples of traditional Chinese feng shui cures are:

• Chinese coins
• Red tassels with a mystic knot pattern, as well as money symbols
• The three legged toad
• Images of ships in a harbor, or an actual wooden ship loaded with coins and crystals
• An aquarium with golden fish or arrowana fish. Koi fish is also often used in the feng shui money applications.

The energy of money and wealth cannot coexist with the energy of clutter, so be sure to do your best and clear out your clutter. Let your home breathe freely and create some open space for good things to come to you.

Make sure your money area can hold, or keep the Chi, or energy that enters your home. Ask yourself: "Does the energy easily escape through many windows in the Southeast area or through a back door in the Southeast?"

Check to see if your feng shui money area is not partially missing. You will need to address all these issues - especially the missing money area issue - in order to keep your wealth energy stable.

• For example, if part of your feng shui Money area area is missing, the easiest way to balance the energy and complete the missing area is to hang a mirror on the Southeast wall. Mirrors bring the energy of water, which is an ancient symbols of abundance. Mirrors are also a typical feng shui cure to complete the missing areas.

If you have a bathroom in your money area, be sure to apply some feng shui tips for a bathroom in the wealth area and remedy the situation.

Make a habit of checking your money area often to see how it looks and feels. The goal of your feng shui decorating efforts to attract the energy of wealth is to create a space that expresses the energy of abundance and has a fresh flow of Chi.

Good luck and much abundance to you and your family!
