Ever notice how many banks have a front door aligned directly with a back door? In a residential setting, this would be considered a house where the occupants have a hard time saving their money. With a bank, it just seems to be the nature of the business: the money comes in and simultaneously the money goes out!

The doors to many banks, especially ones on corners, are often angled. The folklore around this design feature is that it can make the people passing through the doors feel like taking risks. This of course works to the advantage of banks; people risk their money every day in these institutions.

In 1995, Master Sang took a busload of feng shui students to Las Vegas for a field trip. One of the casinos we analyzed was the Mirage Hotel. This hotel has an energy pattern at the front door based on when it was built that could attract robbery. How ironic that this energy could work to the advantage of the Hotel, since practically everyone who gambles is “robbed” so to speak, of their money after gambling in the casino.

The cash register is supposed to open many times a day as a measure of success for a retail business. Odd but true, that registers in the northeast sector of a store are often very still, not opening much. The direction of northeast is associated with a mountain, which doesn’t budge.

Bars that are positioned in the “lonely” areas of a restaurant can often generate great business from that location. This is an example of taking a negative location and doing something profitable with it.

Streets that angle down towards a property carry with them the qi (air currents) of virtual water. If the street carries real water that is literally dirty, the money it brings can be of a “dirty” nature. Many years ago I went to a house in the canyons, where the house was below street level and a puddle of dirty water perpetually collected near the front door, according to the owner. Turns out she was a very successful “romance novelist” which is a euphemism for what kind of soft porn books she was really writing. The moral of the story is that dirty water can bring in dirty money.

Just about any and every type of business can be assessed for its correlation with Feng Shui’s wealth and career principles. People usually match their environment and by extension, their businesses and career luck as well. These Feng Shui Money Observations have made even me more convinced of Feng Shui’s validity over time.
