6 Tips to Use Feng Shui to Improve Your Career and Finances
Feng shui can be a powerful tool to help improve your career, which in-turn can improve your financial success. By sprinkling a little feng shui into your home and workspace (even a home office), you can create a supportive environment to help you achieve your goals. Here are six tips that I often give on consultations for how to use feng shui to improve your career and finances:
- Activate your Career Area: In feng shui, the area of your home or office that represents your career as part of the bagua is located in the front-center of the space, just as you enter through the front door. To activate the Career Area, try hanging a picture or a painting of calm water that seems to flow into your home.
- Enhance your Fame & Reputation Area: The Fame & Reputation Area of your home or office is located in the far back center of the space when you enter through the front door. To enhance this area, add strong symbols like pictures of tall mountains, trees, etc. You can also use the colors of fire like red and orange. This can also be a great spot for other symbols of fire, like a fireplace or candles.
- Use the “command position”: In any room, the command position is the spot that allows you to see the door and have your back to a solid wall. You’ll feel more in-control and supported, which can be beneficial for your career, and thus your financial success. Try to sit in this position whenever possible, especially during work or study time.
- Keep your desk organized: A cluttered desk can block the flow of positive energy, which hinders your career and financial success. Make an effort to keep your desk organized to allow for a smooth flow of energy.
- Add symbols of success: Surround yourself with symbols of success, such as awards, certificates, or mementos of past achievements. You can even put up symbols of future success: pre-print that diploma or put up a fake Oscar award for now! They can help remind you of your accomplishments to provide motivation to continue striving for success.
- Invite in positive energy: Keep your home and office well-lit, which invites in positive energy. Open windows to let in fresh air and consider adding a water feature or plants to bring in a sense of abundance.
If you’re already familiar with feng shui, you might be wondering why I didn’t mention the Wealth & Prosperity Corner. We need to walk before we run. Be sure to get your career and basic finances figured out first.
Remember to keep an open mind. Have fun with the process so you can create some positive energy to improve your career and finances. The most important thing is to create a space that feels good to you and supports your aspirations.

Creating a Vision Board: Using Feng Shui to Manifest Your Goals and Desires
A vision board, also known as a dream board or a goal board, is a visual representation of your goals, desires, and aspirations. In the practice of feng shui, creating a vision board can be a powerful tool for manifesting your intentions and bringing abundance and prosperity into your life. Here’s how to create a vision board using feng shui principles:
- Identify your goals and desires. Before you begin creating your vision board, take some time to reflect on your goals and desires. What do you want to achieve in your personal or professional life? What are your dreams and aspirations? Write down your goals and keep them in mind as you create your dream board.
- Gather ideas & materials for your vision board. You can use a variety of materials to create your vision board, such as magazine clippings, photographs, quotes, drawings, or other items that represent your goals and desires. You can also use a pre-made board or create your own by using a corkboard or foam board, especially if you see yourself updating your goals often. If you’re better at computers than arts & crafts, organize using your favorite software and get it printed, though this method requires a new print with each update to your goals.
- Arrange your vision board. When arranging the elements on your vision board, consider the feng shui principles of balance, symmetry, and flow. Try to create a visually pleasing and harmonious arrangement that represents your goals and desires. Be sure no area is too overpowering.
- Choose a location for your vision board. In feng shui, it’s important to choose a location for your vision board that is visible and accessible, but not necessarily in a high-traffic area. For most people, a good spot might be a bedroom wall or a home office. One school of thought is that a vision board is highly personal and that anyone questioning their goals may prevent them from becoming a reality (you may want to de-clutter these people out of your life). Another thought is that supportive friends and relatives who see your goals may help you achieve them (keep these people close).
- Visualize and affirm your goals. As you create your vision board, take a few moments to close your eyes and visualize your goals and desires as if they have already been achieved. Repeat affirmations such as “I am thankful, worthy and deserving of my goals” or “I am thankful, successful and prosperous in all areas of my life.” Be sure to phrase them in a way like they have already happened and use gratitude frequently. I repeat my affirmations while looking at my vision board once or twice daily.
By creating a vision board and using visualization and affirmations, you can harness the power of feng shui to manifest your goals and bring abundance and prosperity into your life. Don’t stop with yourself – give each member of your household an opportunity to create their own vision board and work together to help each of you achieve those goals!

5 Feng Shui Tips for Career Success
Feng shui is a Chinese philosophy that focuses on creating balance and harmony in our surroundings. While it’s often associated with the home, feng shui principles can also be applied to our careers to help bring success and prosperity. Here are five feng shui tips that you can use to enhance your career:
- Choose the right office location. The location of your office can have a major impact on your career success. In feng shui, it’s important to choose an office location that has a good view of the office door but not directly in line with the door or have you back to it.
- Organize your workspace. Clutter and disorganization can block the flow of energy and hinder your career success. Take the time to declutter and organize your workspace, and make sure to keep your desk clean and free from clutter.
- Bring in positive energy. Incorporating elements such as plants, crystals, and images of water can help to bring positive energy into your workspace. This can help to boost your productivity and create a sense of balance and harmony.
- Use the right colors. Certain colors are believed to have different energies and associations in feng shui. For example, red is associated with ambition and success, while blue is associated with calm and clarity. Choosing the right colors for your workspace can help to enhance your career success.
- Use the right symbols. Symbols such as the feng shui wealth ship, ingot, and dragon can be used to bring prosperity and success to your career. You can incorporate these or other symbols into your workspace through artwork, figurines, or other decorative elements that you personally connect with as a success symbol.
By following these feng shui tips, you can enhance your career success and bring balance and prosperity to your professional life. Whether you’re looking to get ahead in your current job or start a new career, feng shui can be a powerful tool to help you achieve your goals. Take a deeper dive by learning about the Career Area of the Bagua.

The Benefits of Adding Plants to Your Home or Office with Feng Shui
Plants are important in Feng Shui, as they attract energy to your space. Here are some great reasons to consider adding plants to your home or office with Feng Shui:
- Improve air quality: Plants are natural air purifiers, as they convert carbon dioxide to oxygen. When you add plants to your space, the cleaner air will improve your health.
- Reduce stress: Studies show that being around plants can improve your mood. Add plants to your space to create a calm environment.
- Increase productivity: Plants improve concentration and productivity. Add plants to your workspace to create a more positive environment that encourages you to concentrate to get more done.
- Enhance the energy of your space: In Feng Shui, plants are associated with the wood element. This represents growth, expansion, and new beginnings. Add plants to your space to bring about positive change in your life.
Adding plants to your space is a simple way to improve your well-being in feng shui. Choose plants that are appropriate for your space and care for them regularly to enjoy the many benefits they bring.

Choosing the Perfect Business Location with Feng Shui
Thinking of starting a new business? Talk about exciting and scary at the same time! Well, choosing the right location for your new venture is serious business. And feng shui can help!
Location, location, location is not only important for real estate, but also where to place your business. Here are five feng shui tips that I often give to my business clients to help them choose the perfect location for their business:
- Consider the main entrance. In feng shui, the main entrance of a building is where feng shui energy and your prosperity flows in. To attract positive energy, it’s best to locate the main entrance in a way that is good for your business. As a fairly obvious example, you’d want a retail store’s main entrance to be in an area with lots of foot traffic rather than hidden in a back alley. The main entrance of a therapist’s office, on the other hand, should be a little more discreet, though not hard to find.
- Look for a location with good energy. Find a location with good energy by looking for a place that is well-ventilated and has plenty of natural light. Look at locations near sources of positive energy, like parks and bodies of water. Avoid locations that are located near negative elements, such as busy highways, cemeteries, hospitals, or areas that seem disorganized.
- Choose the right building shape. The shape of a building in feng shui is important because it can affect the flow of energy. For example, square or rectangular buildings are considered stable and grounding, while round or oval-shaped buildings are thought to promote creativity and flexibility. Choose a building shape that aligns with the goals and values of your business.
- Pick your numbers carefully. In feng shui, address and unit numbers have a symbolic meaning that can affect the energy of a location. For example, the number 8 is considered lucky and is often associated with abundance and prosperity. On the other hand, the number 4 is considered so unlucky in feng shui that most buildings in Asia skip the 4th floor. The numbers in your address should align with your business goals.
- Look for the right elements. The surroundings of and the materials used in the construction of your building are quite important to the success of your business. Understand the Five Elements and their meanings. Then, look at the elements around your prospective building’s location (bodies of water, trees, etc.) and the construction/elements already in your building (steel, wood, fireplaces, etc.). You’ll want to complement and balance what already exists there with appropriate elements in your tenant improvements and interior design while slightly favoring the element(s) that most aligns with your business goals.
Choosing the right location for your new venture is serious business! We haven’t even talked about your logo, yet, have we? While we’re at it, don’t forget to put some feng shui focus on your personal career path.

Feng Shui Defense: Convex Mirror Secrets
Convex Bagua mirrors are a tool often used in Feng Shui to deflect negative energy. By deflecting negative energy, they may help prevent accidents, protect against theft, and calm overwhelming feelings.
What Are Convex Mirrors?
Convex Bagua mirrors are specifically shaped like an octagon. Each side and the center of the octagon represents one of the nine areas of the Bagua. These areas each represent a different aspect of life, including wealth, career, relationships, and health.
When to Use Convex Mirrors
When I work with home builders, I advise them on creating housing developments that are most auspicious for future residents. We’ll work together to avoid or minimize homes located at T-intersections, the end of a cul-de-sac, corner lots, and poison arrows.
If you already live in a home with any of these situations, however, there are often remedies. When I consult with homeowners, we’ll identify areas of concern and I will advise specific cures. Some of these remedies may include a convex Bagua mirror.
How to Use Convex Mirrors
There are several ways to use convex Bagua mirrors in Feng Shui. One common placement is to hang the mirror just above the front door, facing outward. This is believed to deflect negative energy and protect the home from negative influences. If you have poison arrows facing toward your window, you may hang the mirror above the window. Again, face the mirror outward to deflect negative energy from the outside. Whether with a door or window, the mirror could be inside or outside of the wall. Just make sure the reflective part of the mirror is facing outwards towards the negative energy.
Please ONLY use convex Bagua mirrors for protection and NEVER use them to intentionally harm or bring negativity to others. Use them with caution, as they can be very powerful and can even reflect or amplify negative energy back at you if used incorrectly.
What Convex Mirror Should I Get?
There are several out there but I suggest getting one like this that has a Bagua’s octagonal shape with a circular convex mirror in the middle.
How About Concave Mirrors?
Well, concave mirrors are a whole other subject. They deserved their own blog post.
Next Steps
If you’re interested in using convex Bagua mirrors for Feng Shui in your home or business, it’s important to consult with a Feng Shui expert to determine the best placement for maximum protection. When you use and place them appropriately, convex Bagua mirrors can provide you with powerful protection by bringing positive energy to your space.
