WHAT ARE INGOTS / MONEY BARS?

Gold ingots are ancient chinese gold medium for exchanging expensive goods. They are made to look like a smiley face because gold ingots trigger happiness when one sees it. Gold ingots have been designed by ancient Feng Shuimasters with a perfect shape to emit wealth chi. They were owned in ancient times by high ranking officials, emperors and tycoons only. Gold ingots are highly recommended by all Feng Shui masters as the symbol of wealth and abundance.

There are few Feng Shui cures as popular – and as universal in their application – as the Laughing Buddha. You can find the Laughing Buddha in a variety of Feng Shui products – from statues and bells to keychains and jewelry. Also called the Traveling Buddha, Buddha of Happiness, Matreiya in Buddhism, or Hotei in Japan, the Laughing Buddha is often depicted in various positions with a vast array of auspicious symbols such as such as Ruyi, Wu Lou, gold ingots and coins, bagful of treasures or surrounded by playful children. The Laughing Buddha Feng Shui symbol is based on the story of a Buddhist monk who lived in the 10th century China. Legend has it that nothing would make this Buddha happier to see people’s problem, worries and sadness transform into happiness. It is said that his inner smile is so strong that it radiates throughout his entire face. He is considered a reincarnation of Gautama Buddha and is most welcome and loved everywhere he goes as he brings the energy of light heartedness, joy and laughter.

One of the best Feng Shui locations for a Laughing Buddha is in your living room where you can see it as you come home, creating good Feng Shui in your main entrance. As a general rule however, the Laughing Buddha can be placed anywhere except the bathroom and toilet. Avoid placing near electrical outlets, elect or equipment with moving parts and motors. This type of activity disturbs the surrounding energy.
