What to do to have more money in 2011 - Feng Shui



Here are some rituals from Hong Kong-based Feng Shui Master and Mandarin Oriental Manila geomancer Joseph Chau Kam Shing this coming Chinese New Year, February 2:

1. should have half kilo of watermelon (pakwan) on your table...its seeds symbolizes money and prepare red packet (ampao) with full of money
2. make your rice container full and put kiat-kiat fruit on top of the container and red packet (ampao) with P168 inside...for abundance of money
3. better to use new clothes and underwear...lucky colors include gold, silver, white, green
4. if possible, be in Makati area (hoping this one works coz I live in Makati)...because the city symbolizes money area (as the business capital of the Philippines)
