Ways to Improve Your Luck

Everyone wants to live and work smoothly, but reality can be tough. If you’ve been having bad luck lately, you might need to do something to change it. Here are some effective methods from Feng Shui to help turn your luck around.

Common Methods to Improve Luck

1. Moving to a New HomeWhen moving to a new home, clean it thoroughly. Place a piece of rice paper on the floor, put a yellow flat stone in the center, and add some rice on top. Place four other grains (wheat, beans, millet, or bird food) in the four corners of the paper. Sincerely hope for prosperity and wrap everything in the paper. Put it in a small box and place it on the altar. This can bring unexpected good luck.
2. Seeking LoveOn the 15th night of the lunar calendar, take three small pieces of willow bark and six peach blossom petals. Put them in clear water, light a small red candle, and wash your face with the water while wishing for love. Pour the water around a plant outside, and when the candle burns out, love will come to you.
3. For Health and LongevityPlace three green beans and three red beans in a red envelope, seal it, and carry it with you for 36 days. Afterward, put it under your bed. This will absorb any bad energy and help you stay healthy and happy.
4. For Career SuccessOn a full moon night, write your name on a yellow paper. Pray to the moon for career success, then walk seven steps in each direction (north, south, east, and west), and bury the paper in the ground. Your career will soon improve.
5. Removing Bad LuckChoose a day between 11 PM and 1 AM. Take a cooked egg, hold it in your hand with some cinnabar and 99 drops of new rice wine. Rub the egg with the mixture, then find an open place to eat the egg. Walk 100 steps away from home and throw the eggshells far away. This will help remove bad luck.
6. Removing Bad Luck (Golden Cicada Shedding)Take a raw egg, empty the yolk and white without breaking the shell too much. Dye the shell red and put some of your hair and nail clippings inside. Seal the egg with a red paper and pray for the bad luck to leave. Place the egg in a fast-moving stream or river, which symbolizes the bad luck quickly leaving you.
7. For Good HealthOn your lunar birthday, select a lucky time. Put seven red roses, seven white pebbles, some rice, and salt in your bath and soak for ten minutes. This will help you stay healthy and strong. Dispose of the water and items afterward without letting anyone step on them.
8. Changing Luck with Hair and NailsOn the night before the Mid-Autumn Festival, cut a small amount of your hair and nails, put them in a red envelope with 100 yuan. Seal the envelope and throw it away without speaking to anyone or looking back. This will help remove bad luck.
9. Cleansing the HouseMix cold and hot water in a bowl to about 40 degrees. Add seven grains of rice, a spoonful of salt, and seven pieces of banyan leaves. Sprinkle the water on all the walls of your house while reciting your name and address. Pour the remaining water outside without turning back if someone calls your name. This will drive away bad energy and make the house feel refreshed.
10. Wealth AttractionMake two “wealth plates” using two round plates. Place 92 ten-yuan coins and 16 five-yuan coins in a specific pattern on yellow or pink paper with a Taiji symbol. Add 12 five-colored beans. Place these plates in the northeast and southeast corners of your home or office.
11. Attracting LovePlace a small doll (nude Barbie or similar) in a small bathtub or bed on a round plate. Add a red paper with “Grant me love” written on it, and place a compass pointing east and west. Put a flower at the doll’s private area. Position this setup in the right place in your house according to the compass. This will help attract love.
12. Removing Negative EnergyUse a fresh egg and roll it over your body from head to toe. Prick your middle finger, let some blood come out, and mark a cross on the egg. Cook the egg, eat the white, and dispose of the yolk and shell at a place where it can be stepped on or driven over. This will remove bad energy.
13. For Financial GainAt midnight, make a small round piece of dough, mark it with the word “gold” and your name and birth date, and sprinkle it with gold powder. Hang it in a frequently used passageway to attract wealth.
14. Gathering Wealth at HomeOpen all windows to let out bad air. Boil a new teapot with 12 coins in it in your living room. Use a fan to spread the steam around the house for 20-30 minutes. This will help gather wealth in your home.
15. Protecting Wealth and Avoiding EvilCarry a bundle of seven small peach branches tied with five-colored string (black, white, yellow, red, blue). You can also soak it in water and use it for a bath to avoid evil spirits.

1. Lucky BeadsThe number of beads has special meanings. One bead for smooth sailing, two for good things in pairs, three for prosperity, four for peace, five for blessings, six for success, seven for eternal love, eight for wealth, nine for longevity, and ten for perfection. Lucky beads are often given by elders to younger people for good wishes.
2. Peach Wood Feng Shui ItemsPlace peach wood items in the east wall of a room before 9 AM for best results. They can ward off evil spirits and improve luck.
3. Amethyst, Smoky Quartz, or Agate JewelryThese crystals are popular and affordable. They help avoid evil, improve luck, and relieve stress. Women often prefer amethyst, while men like black agate.
