Augmenting the wealth sector of your home does not have to be that complicated. Aside from using colors such as red, green and purple and red lighting you can acquire a few inexpensive Chinese symbols to give your luck a boost as well.

 
One of the easiest ways to augment your wealth sector is simply to buy a few “gold” ingots in your local China Town. These ingots can also bring you wealth if you place them in your North (Career) and South (fame) sectors or on your desk.  One of the most powerful ingot statues is that of the Prosperity Buddha who is posed lifting a gold ingot over his head.

 
Other simple Chinese symbols that go well in this area is the statue of eight horses (placed as if they are running into your house with their backs to the door), a Chinese Money Toad (with the coin in its mouth pointing towards the door) or a statue of leaping carp.

Being a bit of snob when it comes to aromatherapy and essential oils, I have always dismissed celebrity perfumes as being too synthetic and probably a fine source of allergens and chemicals as well. Give me a master perfumer like Annick Goutal who travels the world to find just the right bit of seaweed or the finest rarest blossom to put in her complex multi-layered (and very healing) perfumes. If you don’t know the story of Annick Goutal, she is a breast cancer survivor who was discovered by French Perfumers as having an “incredible nose.”

However the question today can celebrities also be capable of mixing a healing or genuinely uplifting scent that has the similar transcendatal qualities as an essential oil blend? I was perusing the latest celebrity perfumes and noted with great interest that they are being concocted with more originality and attention to pure oils. I guess in Hollywood it is because the rarer, more expensive and more precious the oils are in your celebrity perfume the more of a status symbol it is. The exception of course is Jessica Simpson who is still putting out perfumes full of white trash synthetic flavors such Vanilla Cupcake and Strawberry Sorbet.

Anyhoo the side benefit of all of this vanity and personal conceit is that the perfumes are infinitely more wearable and more attractive to an aromatherapy addict.

Here is a run down of the newest celebrity perfumes, the essential oils they contain and their likely beneficial effects.

LOVELY BY SARAH JESSICA PARKER should have actually been named ANTIDEPRESSANT. It contains mandarin, orchid and cedar and all three essential oils are mood elevators.

LIVE BY JENNIFER LOPEZ quite oddly adds ups to be a scent that says something like “using your feminine charms to get to the top.” It contains pineapple and sandalwood which are prosperity drawing scents, vanilla which is very attractive to males and aura cleansing lemon to make sure toxic types don’t get in your way!

The Olsen Twins, Mary Kate and Ashley have come up with two fragrances called NY and LA. It is also a bit strange how these two rich girls have loaded both scents with prosperity drawing oils. LA has guava and honeysucklle in it and both oils are renowned in metaphysics for being money magnets. NYC contains orange and pomegrante oils which are also classic money drawing oils (if you want to believe Raymond Buckland the author of the Magic in Food.) This begs the question – Are they twin witches too?

Not surprisingly JUST ME BY PARIS HILTON is all about sex. It contains musk, white roses and pink peppercorns (which are a big antidepressant!)

Britney Spears put some master perfumers to work to create her fragrance which is all about being unique. It contains red lychee (prosperity drawing) and white chocolate orchid (which screams vagina power!) However like all things destined to be mass marketed it is ruined with an artificial synthetic note that smells like vanilla cupcakes (and also quite a bit like Jessica Simpson whose new scent is something called Vanilla Cupcake.)

If you are interested in the erotic or money drawing effects of any of these perfumes I hunted around on the internet and found a site where you can get 100% Brand Name Fragrances Up To 70% OFF

Of course you could also get a little bit inventive and simply mix up your own purer parody of these celebrity fragrances by mixing up essential oils in a carrier oil. For instance, Just Me By Paris Hilton would be very easy to replicate using orange, musk and rose oil. Lovely By Jessica Parker would also be pretty simple as it is made of three very common oils - orange, cedarwood and orchid.

Another tip is that anything that smells like a cupcake is just probably loaded with vanilla absolute. If you are looking to buy quality essential oils on the cheap click here.
