The Feng Shui Mystery Behind the Color Gold
Nothing can represent wealth, money, and opulence better than gold. Even the very center of the heavens, the Sun, is best delineated by Gold itself. Its warm radiance gives a magnetic kind of energy that makes everything near it glow. Since Gold contains the Sun’s yang energy, it allures chi and attracts prosperity.
People ages ago regard Gold as the Sun’s hue that holds nature’s universal force. Because of its strong appeal, some store it in bulk for protection, especially for dynasties to retain their political power.
Gold is correlated with three of the most important element, Earth, Metal, and Fire.
Earth element represents the things that serve as the foundation of our life, Health, and Relationships on both romantic and familial ones. As the physical Earth is the ground of every living thing, the element Earth also stabilizes the energy that revolves around your space.
The Metal element, on the other hand, constitutes vigor and determination. It facilitates chi at a prime level. As Earth naturally produces Metal, both elements have a symbiotic relationship. Metal strengthens the energy that Earth provides, vibrating the perfect energy that your space needs.
The gold’s reverberance is the reason why it is also related to the element of Fire. It brings with it cozy and forbearing energy into your space.
In terms of the Bagua map, Gold corresponds to the Southeast corner, the Wealth and Prosperity area. This helps welcome not only material blessings but also opportunities in career or business based on what the occupants truly desire.
Feng shui identifies what is called the “Gold Corner” which is the northwest corner. Putting golden objects in this space adds financial assistance, especially to the breadwinner of the house. The energy it brings magnifies the fortune and spiritual assistance intended for the most obliging person in the house. It trades off struggles with prosperity.
Gold blocks, also known as “ingots” are the most favored items by Chinese people that’s why it carries valuable significance in feng shui. Aside from the wealth energy it contains, it is also known to convey joy, happiness, and stamina for the people and the space it occupies. That is why it is advisable to position these in your living room or place of work. Its color most specifically radiates expansive energy that makes its surroundings attract financial fluke.
