“山管人丁,水管财” — a widely-cited principle of Imperial Feng Shui that translates to “mountains govern benefactors, while water governs wealth”. This verse emphasises the importance of activating the water star in one’s home, office or retail space, reiterating that the water star plays a pivotal role in garnering wealth, attracting strategic opportunities and strengthening intuition.
As the “first” season of the year, spring marks the time when fresh seeds are sown in gearing up for another year of abundance. Taking advantage of the season to activate the water star allows an individual to reap the benefits of their work, gaining powerful benefactors and maximising their wealth to continue to thrive in 2022 – a year of spectacular growth and recovery as the world leaders relaxed COVID-19 restrictions and embarked on the reopening of their country’s borders.
Thriving in 2022
Crystals have long since been employed in the activation of the auspicious water star, a quality strongly exemplified by Emperor Qian Long’s advocacy for such use during the Qing dynasty. The installation of Imperial Harvest-grade crystals within the Qing imperial court catalysed the prosperous growth of the Qing empire, ushering in an age of unparalleled growth, wealth, social stability and cohesion. This makes the Imperial Harvest crystal collection an essential home collection to help our blessed clients seize the golden opportunity of growth and prosperity.
Understanding Feng Shui Fundamentals
For clients who have not done their Imperial Home Feng Shui with Imperial Harvest, there are three important auspicious stars in San Yuan Xuan Kong Flying Stars Feng Shui which thrive regardless of the period (i.e. any time from Period 1 to Period 9). These are the Greedy Wolf (贪狼), Martial Arts (武曲) and Left Assistance (左辅) stars.
Star #1, or the Greedy Wolf (贪狼) star, is a water elemental star symbolising the start of new beginnings. Bringing opportunities and successes, it is especially suited for those seeking breakthroughs. Activating the water star #1 with Imperial Harvest-grade crystals catalyses investment opportunities, improving cash flow and bolstering rapid wealth accumulation — highly recommended for the start-up founders or established entrepreneurs looking for new revenue streams, budding professionals or those looking to make a mid-career switch to embark on a new path.
Star #6, or the Martial Arts (武曲) star, symbolises career progressions, promotions and breakthroughs — especially important for established career professionals competing for coveted positions within their industry. Those experiencing career stagnation or considering a career switch should look to activating this star, as it helps one gain company-wide recognition, accelerated career progression. Upon activation with Imperial Harvest-grade crystals, it catalyses career opportunities with bright prospects, improves wealth retention and rapid salary increments.
An earth elemental star, Star #8 or the Left Assistance (左辅) star, governs the wealth derived from careers and business. The most powerful wealth star among the three auspicious stars, it is often activated by career professionals looking to achieve massive growth and lasting consistency in their income and profits. Activating Star #8 with Imperial Harvest-grade crystals catalyses career and business opportunities, fosters rapid and massive wealth accumulation, incremental cash flow and strong asset growth.
For clients who have completed the basic foundation of their home Feng Shui with the Imperial Harvest Qian Long Jadeite Mountain, Imperial Harvest Crystals, Imperial White Inkstone and Imperial Harvest Jadeite Painting, the next progressive step to take would be setting the Feng Shui foundation for Period 9.

In 2022, activating the Period 9 wealth star #9 is of paramount importance as the annual flying stars have returned to natal positions. In Period 9, the two most prosperous sectors are the South and North. This is because the South sector is the Direct Spirit or Mountain Star (正神位), while the North sector holds the Indirect Spirit or Water Star (零神位) — the two most important sectors to take care of during Period 9.
Activating the wealth star for Period 9 with Imperial Harvest Crystals will help you to attract golden opportunities and powerful benefactors to create wealth and success in Period 9.

Dragon
One of the most important figures in Chinese mythology, the Dragon is considered to be one of the most powerful and divine creatures. Symbolic of great power, the Dragon has been highly revered as the most auspicious emblem of wealth and authority.
Historically, the Dragon was associated with the Emperor of China and was used as an imperial symbol of power. Motifs of the heavenly creature were common within the walls of the imperial palace, with images of the Dragon adorning its architecture.

In ancient China, the Phoenix was a classic Imperial symbol of power and prosperity, often representing a power sent to the Empress from the heavens. Phoenixes embodied the Chinese Empresses, much like how dragons were representative of the Emperor.
Naturally complementing its dragon counterpart, the formidable pair of mythical creatures conveyed a yin-yang representation of balance. As imperial symbols representing power and prosperity, they too were a common emblem in the landscape of ancient China.

With a hybrid appearance resembling a winged lion and a dragon, the Pixiu was known for its strong ability to draw wealth from all directions. It aids its destined owner in accumulating wealth and resources from both direct and indirect streams of income.
Widely regarded as a creature heralding prosperity, the legendary Pixiu was a creature that maintained a voracious appetite for gold and riches, maintaining its collection of limitless wealth within its body. As such, the Pixiu came to be known as a symbol of auspiciousness that attracted wealth and prevented the inauspicious outflow of it.
In ancient China, the Pixiu was a prominent architectural feature, harnessing its abilities to ward off inauspicious Qi (煞气) and to harness auspicious Qi. Statues of the Pixiu could be found adorning the palaces and halls of high-ranking figures, such as the Chinese emperor.
Dragon Turtle
According to legend, the Dragon Turtle neutralises negative or inauspicious energies, converting these obstacles into opportunities for its destined owner. Its ability to attract wealth and abundance made the Dragon Turtle popular amongst Chinese royal families, and high-ranking officials. Stone sculptures of the Dragon Turtle have been found in Ming dynasty architecture, with the Dragon Turtle commonly being displayed as a commemorative emblem of triumph, and prosperity.
