Salt is an essential condiment in every kitchen, not only enhancing the flavor of dishes but also possessing cleaning properties for various household items.
In feng shui, salt is considered a powerful tool to ward off bad luck and evil spirits, inviting good fortune and prosperity when used correctly. To activate wealth and prosperity, consider placing a bowl of salt in these three locations:
Place a bowl of salt by the front door
The main entrance is where the house welcomes all kinds of energy, both positive and negative. According to feng shui, placing a bowl of salt or sprinkling salt at the doorstep can help repel bad luck and evil spirits, thus protecting the family’s peace and bringing about smoother affairs.
In folk belief, to ward off bad luck, people often sprinkle salt at the front door or throw salt over their shoulders (right-handed women throw with their right hand over the left shoulder; left-handed men throw with their left hand over the right shoulder). Salt also effectively eliminates foul odors and repels insects.
The main entrance welcomes all kinds of energy into the house, both positive and negative.
Place a bowl of salt under the bed
Feng shui suggests that placing a bowl of salt along with a few lemons under the bed can help dispel negative energy and attract wealth. To do this, use an odd number of lemons, cut them into quarters (without detaching the pieces), place them on a plate, and sprinkle salt on top. Then, put the plate of salted lemons under the bed or at the head of the bed. The next morning, discard the lemons and salt without touching them directly.
Besides improving the energy flow, placing salt and lemons under the bed also enhances sleep quality, reduces stress, and promotes relaxation. Salt has antibacterial and air-purifying properties, while lemon essential oil helps alleviate stress and improves sleep quality.
Place a bowl of salt in the corner of the house
In every house, the southeast corner usually represents the Wealth and Prosperity sector. According to feng shui, placing a bowl of salt in this area can bring good fortune and prosperity to the homeowners, making their endeavors more successful and their lives more abundant.

If you place a bowl of salt in the Family sector (east direction), it will ensure the well-being and peace of your family members.
For better results, you can combine salt, water, and coins. Specifically, fill a glass jar with salt (about 3/4 full), then place six coins on top in a circular pattern with the yang side facing up. Pour water into the jar and place it on a cloth in the corner of the house. Do not cover the mouth of the jar, and avoid placing it in enclosed spaces like cabinets, as this may reduce its effectiveness.
At the end of the year, discard the old salt and coins and replace them with new ones to maintain the feng shui effect.
