How Feng Shui Can Help You Attract More Abundance in Your Career

If you want to bring in more prosperity and wealth through your career, it’s a good idea to look at your home office, and specifically your desk. Your desk represents your career and path in life, which affects how much abundance you can attract to you. 

One of the most important things to pay attention to is the location of your desk. When you’re at your desk, what are you facing? Your view from your desk has a big impact on your energy, and is reflected in how much abundance you can invite in through your work. In feng shui, we recommend placing your desk in the commanding position. This means that you are facing the room, instead of a wall, and that you can see the door to the room without being directly in line with the door. Usually, you’ll be located diagonally from the room’s entrance. Being in this position represents being in control of your life and career. 

If it’s not possible to put your desk in this position and you have to face a wall, you can improve the situation by putting a mirror on the wall in front of your desk. When you’re directly facing a wall at your desk, this can mean there is a block in your career or path in life, or that you’re not able to move forward. Placing a mirror here will expand your view and allow more forward motion. 

Often, people will orient their desk towards a window. While this can give you a pleasant view while you’re working, it isn’t the best position for someone who wants to advance their career, because it means that your qi, or your life force energy, is going out the window instead of staying with you and your work. Instead, try placing your desk so that the window is at your side, so you can take breaks to enjoy the view without getting too distracted from your career and wealth goals. 

Once you’ve found the best location for your desk, you can also activate the Wealth corner to invite more abundance and prosperity through your career. To find the Wealth corner of your desk, divide your desk’s surface into a three-by-three grid. When you’re sitting at your desk, the Wealth area will be in the far left corner. This area is connected to how much wealth you can attract, as well as your self-worth adnd how you value yourself.

To activate this area of your desk, you can place a potted plant or a vase of freshly cut branches or flowers here. A plant is ideal, because it is a way to invest in slow and steady growth when it comes to building wealth through your career. If you are using cut flowers or branches, be sure to change the water frequently and refresh the stems when they are starting to wilt.
