Money Drawing Rituals | Silk Money Trees for your Money Altar

Making a money tree has traditions in some cultures to be created at certain times of the year but in reality, you can actually do it any time of the year. Others use a baby shower, bridal shower or housewarming party to create a money tree. No matter the reason, money trees are always a welcome gift to receive. A money tree is also a great addition to your ever-changing money altar. It is easy to create and something you can add onto as you go!

First, find an old tree branch which looks like the body of a small tree. You may also choose to buy a small silk plant at your local crafts store. Remember that in the feng shui methodology, oval or round leaves represent wealth, so look for a Ficus Benjamina or a small Magnolia bush. Some people choose to decorate the bare branches, believing that the real or “fake” money symbolizes the leaves of the plant. You may choose ( as I did) that all money attached to the tree as it progresses will go towards something; meaning as you earn more money and save more money, you will attach the money to the tree for that particular reason. Mine is to be used for going to Mardi Gras. Whichever method you choose is just as good as the other. Here are some photos of my attempts to create a money tree.

First assemble all your items such as silk branches, florists' foam, a pot and paint to decorate it.

Then, all you need to do is pin with a stick pin or use a drop of hot glue “fake” or even real money to the tree. Some people use fish hooks to “catch” additional money but even in a pinch, scotch tape will do.

Some believe that the type of artificial tree or bush that you choose have significant money drawing properties in them selves. Here is a list of those beliefs:

* Juniper brings material wealth.
* Pine brings good health and wealth.
* Spruce brings wealth though family connections.
* Maple trees are about the free flowing circulation of money and attracting business

There are some beliefs that if you are using tree branches, the different woods you choose might also have some connotations for you. For instance, willow tree branches can help alleviate sorrow and help pay for medical expenses. Money tree branches made from willow trees might also help a widow find a new husband. Money trees made from oak branches bode financial strength and immunity to bad financial trends. They symbolize being sturdy and having stamina during tough economic times. Oaks are big strong trees that put firm roots deep into the ground so they symbolize financial strength. Hanging a few acorns or buckeyes on this type of tree is also a good idea.

The principle of manifestation with this type of ritual is that whatever you put on the tree in terms of real or fake money will then multiply ten times. This is why it is a good idea to add as many money “leaves” as possible. It is also not a bad idea to add coins. Foreign coins, fake coins, and real coins work well. You can also decorate the tree with foil covered chocolate coins, which symbolize the money coming to you in and easy and sweet way.

The idea is that whatever you attach to the tree is worth ten times as much. If you don’t have any money, you can use any kind of fake money. It is perfectly acceptable to use Monopoly money. If you don’t even have a set of Monopoly money around, you can write the amounts that you need on little slips of paper. The paper can be green or you can write the amount that you need in green paint or marker.

As with all rituals like this, remember that they only work as well as the intention that you put into it so be sure to put your heart and soul into making your money tree.
