Avoid cluttering the entrance with knick-knacks
In daily life, many people have a habit of collecting miscellaneous items such as old cardboard boxes, bottles, or picking up wood scraps for fuel or making small furniture. Storing these items in front of the house not only accumulates dust but also causes mold, pests, and unpleasant odors over time.
This pile of “junk” not only affects the aesthetics of the house but also gives guests a bad impression of the homeowner’s cleanliness and tidiness. This negative impression can impact relationships and business dealings, making it harder to attract wealth. Of course, God of Wealth will also not visit such a cluttered house.
Don’t place dirty doormats at the entrance
If the main door of the house is not facing a favorable direction, a doormat can be used to dissipate negative energy. A beautiful and elegant doormat not only serves as a decorative piece but also, according to feng shui beliefs, helps attract wealth and blessings for the household.
Doormats not only enhance the appearance of your home but also trap dirt and moisture from your shoes as you enter. However, many people forget to clean these mats regularly, allowing them to become dirty, moldy, and a source of dirt, mold, and bacteria being tracked into the house. A dirty and moldy mat will not be able to attract wealth and blessings, so it is best to keep it clean or replace it when necessary.
Avoid placing garbage outside the door
When it’s too late to take out the trash, some people like to leave garbage bags by the door or even hang them on the doorknob. Over time, the floor tiles near the door will become stained due to the trash.
According to ancient beliefs, placing garbage by the door directly affects the health of family members and blocks the flow of positive energy into the house. The entrance is not just a place to welcome sunlight and breeze but also a gateway for good fortune and the God of Wealth. Therefore, one should never leave garbage by the door.
Leaving garbage by the door not only invites misfortune and blocks wealth but also leads to insect infestations, creating an unsanitary and aesthetically unpleasant environment. Additionally, in hot weather, the garbage will emit a foul odor, attracting flies and mosquitoes and directly affecting your health. Thus, it is advisable to dispose of garbage promptly and wipe the floor clean if you must temporarily place a garbage bag by the door.
