Feng Shui was practiced in China from ancient days of old and it is still practiced today in many parts of the world. It is believed that practicing this art can positively impact everything in a person's life as well as health and wealth. The correct placement of certain objects is very important in Feng Shui and should be handled with extreme care. Having objects out of sync with Feng Shui will not bring the right energy. One way you can help the energy in your home is by keeping freshwater goldfish for Feng Shui.
The fish moving about in the water is said to multiply the energy in the place where you live. Goldfish also will take in the negative energy and it is then absorbed out of the home. One of the reasons you never want to place an aquarium in a new baby's room is the bright colors of the goldfish will give off active energy (they will magnify the energy) that disturbs the calm nights of rest that parents seek.
The goldfish aquarium should never be a square one. Instead, you can use one that is rectangular. Goldfish in an aquarium can represent every element of Feng Shui. The plants in the tank represent the wood, the rocks and gravel are part of the Earth portion of Feng Shui and the material in the aquarium construction is the metal.
Placement of the aquarium is very important. If you are seeking an opportunity for your career to thrive or you need energy in your job, then place the aquarium in the north part of your living room. If you are seeking health energies for yourself or your family, then put the tank in the east of the living room. For wealth, it is best to put the aquarium up in the southeast area of your living room. Kitchens and bedrooms are the worst places to put goldfish aquariums as they can create the wrong kind of Feng Shui for your home.
If you use goldfish in the art of Feng Shui, you should keep in mind that if the fish are stressed or unhappy because they are not being properly cared for this will have a reverse effect. You will want to be sure that the water is kept clean and that the fish are well cared for.
