In modern life, arranging flowers is one of the needs of many people. Flowers help decorate the house and also bring tranquility. For many people, flowers are like a spiritual therapy that can heal and help reduce worries, increase relaxation, and help people quickly get out of tired and weak states.
However, instead of putting flowers in a vase, you can change it by dropping a few flowers into decorative bowls, cups, or feng shui bowls. Water bowls not only beautify but also have great feng shui significance for the family.
Feng shui significance of water bowls
In feng shui, water plays an important role. The water element is about wealth and fortune. The ancients said that water governs money, mountains govern people, meaning that water governs money, gold, silver, and treasures, while mountains govern human resources, health, family, and longevity.
In feng shui, the water element inside the house is extremely important. Especially, water in front of the house attracts wealth and is called the water gathering place. Therefore, when it comes to feng shui, the ancients emphasized having clean, flowing water in front of the house to attract wealth and prosperity to the family. That is why in the past, when building a house, there would often be a miniature rock garden, fish tank, or waterfall in front of the house. Now, in narrow spaces, if you can’t make a decorative fish tank or a garden with a waterfall in front of the house, you can use water bowls or small mini waterfalls.
Clean flowing water brings wealth to the family and helps attract positive energy into the house.
Regarding health, clean water bowls inside the house help maintain the humidity of the air, especially when you turn on the air conditioning or during dry winters.
How to create water bowls that attract wealth and relaxation
To create water bowls that attract wealth, you can buy water bowls for money gathering places at feng shui stores or buy beautiful glass water containers according to your preference. But note that these bowls should not be used for cooking or food storage, only for water and flowers. The bowls must be clean, without cracks or breakage.
You pour clean water into the bowl, not too full to avoid overflowing. Then, add the fresh flowers that you like, such as chrysanthemums, roses, lilies, etc.
Water bowls with flowers create a peaceful beauty for the house, helping you relax while enjoying the flowers and experiencing their motion or stillness in the water. It is a spiritual therapy that helps you relieve stress and fatigue.
Placement of water bowls with flowers for wealth attraction according to feng shui
According to feng shui, to attract wealth with the water element inside the house, you can place them in the following 3 positions:
Wealth altar: If the family has a wealth altar, then place the water bowl with flowers in front of the wealth altar. The placement is in front of the altar. The wealth altar governs money and treasures for the family. The water element placed here helps create a water gathering place, attracting more money. Therefore, many families place water bowls with flowers in front of the wealth altar to increase the energy of attracting wealth and prosperity.
Wealth corner of the family
The wealth corner or wealth position is a position diagonally opposite the main door of the living room. For example, if the living room door is on the left side, draw a line from the center of the door to the right side of the house, and vice versa. If the main door is in the middle of the room, draw 2 diagonal lines from the center of the door to the 2 wealth corners of the house. Placing the water bowl with flowers in the wealth corner also helps attract energy for the family.
Placing on the desk, guest table
Water bowls with flowers can also be placed on the desk, guest table, both for decoration to help you relax and create an energy of attracting wealth for the family.
When placing these water bowls in the house, pay attention to clean water, clean bowls, and avoid withered flowers in the bowl. Change the water daily to avoid unpleasant odors, and make sure the flowers are not withered and wilted.
