Happy Chinese New Year! 恭喜发财!
What better way to start the new year than an article about creating some wealth through various spiritual practice (Taoist).
Chinese New Year and the usual greeting is Be Happy and Make More Money! Even though money is not everything, but without money many things are not possible.
So from a spiritual perspective, what is money? It is a form of energy. Some people can attract more of it while some people never seem to have enough.
Through Taoist spiritual 'magic' practice there are many ways to increase or have a boost of money energy. While the boost is big or small is also dependent on the person's destiny. Their capacity for wealth.
However there will be a boost nevertheless from the method that I am going to list down below.
Do It Yourself (DIY) Boost of wealth usually is through the request with several deities. Namely they are
- Earth God or Land Deities commonly known as Tu Di Gong 土地公
- Area Earth Deity known as Tua Pek Gong
- Local Area Earth Deity known as Datuk Kong
Why all of them are Earth Deities? Earth deities are usually spirits that have some form of cultivation. Due to their need for further cultivation or just residing in the area because of the vast amount of offering by people in that area.
And because of their cultivation and offering of physical or mental by patrons. They have extra storage of energy. So with correct means, and their generosity, sometimes out of being impressed and kind they will transfer some of that energy to you.
So how do you go about DIY for boost of wealth through the Earth Deities? The first thing you will need is gold paper / gold paper ingots 金纸, 大福金. These are for offering and burn for these deities.

You might ask, why do I need to offer more gold paper/gold paper ingots to them when I am suppose to be requesting wealth from them. In the spiritual and physical world, everything is in the form of energy ultimately. It just changes form.
So in order to request for some boost of wealth, you will need to first offer some energy in mental thoughts and physical form to the Earth Deities.
Here are some tips when you are DIY to request for wealth from Earth Deities.
- Always make your offering after 12 noon. Earth Deities are more responsive when your request is done after-noon.
- If possible, offer some paper deity clothes as well.
- If you are requesting from your home earth god, use 5 josstick, make sure the tea cups are filled with fresh tea and if you have water cups, it is filled and change everyday.
- Food offering can range from meat items to fruits. If possible, ask the person that installed the earth deity for your home to check for what is the favorite food of your earth god. Each house will have different earth god deity. Not every home is having the same deity.
- When you know and offer their favourite offering, then the boost will be fast and swift!
- Be generous with your offering. If you are stingy and offer 1 orange and expect a big boost in return then you will be greatly dissappointed even after years of offering!. You don't get anywhere by being stingy in the physical world, and it is the same in the spiritual world.
If you are requesting for boost of luck from Area Earth Deity or Local Area Earth Deity, always remember to start your prayers with self introduction. Informing the deity, your name and address.
Also do not expect, the request to be instantaneous. Usually it requires some time for the relationship to build up. Just like the bank, that looks at your credit rating. Earth Deities, look at your spiritual rating and persistency.
Advance Method
This method requires Earth Deity Talisman to make the request more potent.
You will need
- Installed Earth Deity at home
- 5 colour josstick, to represent the 5 elements.
- 5-7 Requesting Wealth Earth Deity Talisman . Each to be burn every night between 11pm – 1am.
- A general compass to know the 4 general direction – North, East, South and West of your home.
After determining all the 4 cardinal directions, light up the incense and place in order of EAST (Green), SOUTH (Red),WEST (Brown), NORTH(BLACKorBLUE) and CENTER (YELLOW).
Request that the 5 direction dragon earth deity collectively take their places. Then burn the talisman into the urn and make your request.
Dedication
When you have felt the effects of the boost within several days, then you will need to do some form of charity. As money is a form of energy, sometimes the boost comes from your own destiny (in advance) and if you did not make the cycle of energy circulate between you and society, then your own storage will be depleted.
All the best and may all your financial wishes be fulfilled swiftly through the Tao.
