Whenever the God of Wealth descends to earth or it is a birthday, many families will worship the God of Wealth, but everyone should know the correct posture when worshiping the God of Wealth. So what is the correct way to worship the God of Wealth and how to consecrate him?

The correct posture for worshipping the God of Wealth

First of all, we must always keep a calm mind and maintain respect for the God of Wealth. When worshiping the God of Wealth, hold three incense sticks and light the candle on the left side of the God of Wealth. Remember not to blow out the flame on the incense with your mouth, but hold the incense horizontally and shake it gently. Secondly, facing the statue of the God of Wealth, hold the incense with your right hand fingers, wrap your right hand with your left hand, and raise it in front of your forehead. Finally, when burning incense, use your left hand to insert the incense into the incense burner. The distance between the three incense sticks should be almost the same, and the distance between them should not exceed one inch.

What are the methods to consecrate the God of Wealth?

There are generally two types of opening methods:

1. Temples and Taoist temples are consecrated by eminent monks or Taoist priests according to the Buddhist or Taoist consecration rituals. This religious consecration ritual has a rigorous and complicated procedure and contains many taboos. The ceremony includes twelve ceremonies: purification, inviting gods, issuing decrees, issuing orders, seven stars, eight trigrams, entering the spirit, commanding pens, commanding mirrors, commanding chickens, consecration, and sending hair. Only then can the spirits of the invited gods gather together on the statue, and with the help of the statue's power, the worshiper's luck will improve, and he will be able to make money and do things easily. Only then can the temple be set up for people to worship and bless with peace.

2. The procedure and ritual of self-consecration that has been passed down among the people since ancient times are relatively simple and have fewer taboos. Simply put, self-consecration is a process of establishing a bond between the statue and the owner. Before consecrating the God of Wealth, you must first place the God of Wealth, invite him to take his seat, and then consecrate him.

The more common folk opening methods are:

1. Determine an auspicious date for the consecration and fill in the auspicious date and personal information on the consecration petition.

2. Prepare incense and candles as offerings and place them on the altar.

3. The person in charge of the ritual first takes a new towel and wipes the God of Wealth, and then worships the God of Wealth.

4. In front of the altar, facing the statue of the deity, read the consecration petition and burn it.

5. The finishing touch. Dip a cotton swab in a little tea oil (tea seed oil. Vegetable oil or salad oil can also be used instead), click on the eyes of the God of Wealth, first the left eye, then the right eye, and repeat three times.

6. Finally, worship the God of Wealth.
