Everyone always wants to know "where's my wealth corner?" 😊 And indeed, this is an important part of the perspectives of Feng Shui.
The wealth and prosperity corner is generally accepted as the back left corner or quadrant of the bagua map when facing the front of your home. This section, or gua, is associated with the I Ching trigram Sun, also translated as Persistent Influence of Wind. From the IFSG Feng Shui Glossary:
Sun (also called Xun): One of the eight trigrams, guas or sectors of the Bagua, associated with the Southeast, number 4, the element Wood, the season of late Spring, the colors green or purple, liver, gall bladder, ligaments, tendons, muscles, hips, thigh, and sense of sight, the eldest Daughter, the symbol Wind, and relates to wealth, prosperity and other life aspects. In the I Ching, Sun is denoted by two solid lines over one broken line.
And as we said in the introduction, wealth is not just finances or money. There are all kinds of abundance. From Richard Ashworth, Imperial Feng Shui:
Healthy, Wealthy and Wise.
"Many people think of Feng Shui as primarily about wealth. The reason for that is that the traditional Chinese Feng Shui man worked for a baron, a king or the Emperor whose priorities were defeating his enemies and accumulating more money and mistresses. Or fewer if the Empress was paying. I tend to think of Feng Shui as about health and of wealth as a function of being healthy, that is balanced."
Formulae
"The Chinese word for wealth, choi – as in the New Year greeting gung hei fat choi – actually carries meanings such as treasure and prize. Indeed in ba zi, it is the term for wife. Choi can be stimulated. Mediaeval procedures like “Grand Master Yang’s Double Mountain Upwards Strategy for the Relief of the Poor” have survived because they work. Each year there are different locations in the home, the office and the landscape that can be “activated” for choi."
