What is the Wealth Position in the Living Room?
To achieve financial prosperity, the wealth position must be accurately identified and activated.
In Feng Shui, the most crucial area in the living room is known as the wealth position. It plays a pivotal role in determining the family’s financial luck, career success, and health. Therefore, homeowners should not overlook the layout and arrangement of this area.
How to Determine the Wealth Position in the Living Room
Determining the Wealth Position Using the Eight Mansions (Bát Trạch)
This is considered the simplest and most straightforward method for identifying the wealth position in Feng Shui. However, its effectiveness is slightly lower compared to the other two schools, according to Feng Shui masters.
In this method, the wealth position is located at the 45-degree diagonal corner from the main entrance. There are three possible scenarios: If the main door is on the left, the wealth position is at the right diagonal corner. If the main door is on the right, the wealth position is at the left diagonal corner. If the main door is in the center, there are two wealth positions, specifically at the left and right bottom corners of the room.

If the main door is in the center, there are two wealth positions, specifically at the left and right bottom corners of the room.
According to Dân Việt, the diagonal lines from the entrance to the room’s corners are often considered the wealth positions. If these areas are deficient or lead directly to another space, it can result in financial losses for the homeowner.
Determining the Wealth Position Using Life Element (Mệnh Lý)
While the Eight Mansions method uses the main door as the basis, the Life Element method relies on the Heavenly Stem of the lunar birth date. To apply this method, you need to identify the Heavenly Stem of the lunar birth date of the primary homeowner (usually the family’s main financial provider).
The wealth position in the living room varies based on the center of the house and the Heavenly Stem of the birth date. (Note: Use the center of the house as the coordinate origin and a Feng Shui compass for measurements.)
Determining the wealth position using Life Element is highly effective as it aligns with the homeowner’s destiny and age. Additionally, some Feng Shui masters use the Heavenly Stem of the birth year to identify the wealth position in the living room.
How to Activate the Wealth Position in the Living Room for Abundant Prosperity
Keep the Wealth Position Well-Lit
Light brings positive energy, enhancing the prosperity of your wealth position. It symbolizes growth and attracts financial inflows. According to experts, a dark wealth position can hinder business success.

To improve this, install additional lighting in the wealth area. Using mirrors to reflect light is also a popular method among homeowners.
Ensure the Wealth Position Has Solid Support
The wealth position represents the family’s wealth and fortune, so it should be stable and undisturbed. Ideally, it should have a solid wall behind it and a safe surrounding environment to “gather and retain energy.”
If the wealth position is backed by a transparent glass window, financial stability may be compromised. This can lead to business stagnation and significant financial losses.
Keep the Wealth Position Clean and Tidy
A dusty or cluttered wealth position symbolizes blocked financial flow, which is a major Feng Shui taboo and can lead to monetary losses.

Placing a few thriving green plants in the wealth area can significantly boost financial energy and wealth.
Therefore, regularly clean and organize the wealth position. Avoid placing noisy items like speakers or washing machines in this area.
Promote Growth in the Wealth Position
“Growth” here refers to thriving vitality. Placing a few healthy green plants in the wealth area can significantly enhance financial energy and wealth.
Note that these plants should be grown in soil and symbolize good fortune, such as money plants, jade plants, or fortune trees. Avoid aquatic plants, plants with unstable roots, or those with thorns (like cacti or sharp-leaved plants), as their negative energy can dissipate your wealth at any time.
