Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work or save, your finances just aren’t flowing the way they should? Your home might be the reason. According to principles from feng shui and energy psychology, clutter and certain items can actually be blocking wealth energy.
Here are 10 common things in your home that could be stopping money in its tracks—and what to do instead:
Contents
1. Cluttered Entryway
Your front door is known as the “mouth of chi,” where opportunities enter. If it’s blocked with shoes, packages, or dirt, you might be turning away abundance before it even knocks.
Fix it: Keep your entryway clean, well-lit, and inviting.
2. Broken Items
Leaky faucets, squeaky doors, or cracked mirrors not only signal neglect—they symbolically represent financial leaks.
Fix it: Repair or discard broken items. Tightening up your home repairs could also tighten up your budget.
3. Dead Plants or Flowers
Withered plants represent stagnation. If your greenery is more “RIP” than “thriving,” it could be a sign your wealth energy is wilting too.
Fix it: Replace dead plants with healthy, vibrant plants to bring in growth and fresh energy.
4. Overflowing Trash
Trash symbolizes waste, and letting it pile up can send the message that you’re okay with loss and chaos.
Fix it: Take out the trash regularly—especially from your kitchen, bathroom, and home office.
5. Toilets with the Lid Up
In feng shui, water is connected to money. An open toilet lid can symbolically drain away your financial flow.
Fix it: Keep toilet lids down to help “hold onto” wealth.
6. Stuff Under the Bed
It might be out of sight, but it’s not out of energy. Items under your bed can block restful sleep and disrupt your subconscious ability to receive abundance.
Fix it: Clear the space under your bed or only store soft, peaceful items like linens.
7. Dusty Mirrors
Mirrors double what they reflect—so if they’re cloudy or reflecting clutter, they can double that energy.
Fix it: Clean your mirrors and place them where they reflect light, beauty, or greenery.
8. Unfinished Projects
That half-painted wall or DIY project gone stale might also be halting your forward momentum—both financially and personally.
Fix it: Finish what you started or release it if it no longer serves you.
9. Negative Symbols or Artwork
Art that feels dark, depressing, or aggressive—even subconsciously—can impact your emotional and financial state.
Fix it: Surround yourself with images that inspire prosperity, happiness, or peace.
10. Cluttered Wallet or Purse
Your wallet is your personal money center. Receipts, expired cards, or a lack of organization can reflect financial disorder.
Fix it: Clear it out, organize your cards, and treat your wallet with respect.
Final Thoughts
Your home is more than just a place to live—it’s a reflection of your mindset. By creating an environment that supports abundance, you can open the doors to wealth energy and new opportunities.
