In every culture and spiritual tradition, there is a quiet understanding that abundance is energy before it is form. What we nurture, focus on and honour expands. A money bowl is a sacred, intentional ritual that brings this ancient wisdom into the modern world — a beautiful physical reminder of your worthiness, your intentions, and your openness to receive.
A money bowl is not about greed or force. It is about alignment. It is an invitation to welcome prosperity, stability and flow into your life while remaining grounded in gratitude, trust and purpose.
WHAT IS A MONEY BOWL?
A money bowl is a symbolic altar created with intention, designed to attract, amplify and anchor abundance energy into your space. It represents your relationship with money — not just financial wealth, but abundance in all forms: opportunity, security, success, generosity and ease.
The bowl itself acts as a vessel — holding your desires, your affirmations and your energetic focus. When created mindfully, it becomes a living ritual that grows stronger as you interact with it.
THE SPIRITUAL MEANING BEHIND A MONEY BOWL
At its core, a money bowl is a manifestation tool. It bridges the physical and energetic worlds by giving your intentions somewhere to land.
Spiritually, it represents:
• Receiving energy rather than chasing
• Trust in divine timing and flow
• A reminder of your inherent worthiness
• Gratitude for what already exists
• Commitment to conscious abundance
When you create a money bowl, you are making a declaration:
“I am open. I am aligned. I am ready to receive.”
CHOOSING YOUR MONEY BOWL
Your bowl should feel special to you. There is no right or wrong — only resonance.
You may choose:
• Glass or crystal bowls for clarity and amplification
• Ceramic or Wooden bowls for grounded, steady abundance
• Gold, brass or metallic tones for prosperity and expansion
Before using it, cleanse your bowl with intention — smoke, sound, moonlight, sunlight, water or simply your breath and presence.
HOW TO CREATE YOUR MONEY BOWL
Begin this ritual when you feel calm, centred and present. Many choose the New Moon, Full Moon, or a quiet moment of reflection.
• Set Your Intention
Hold your bowl in your hands and speak (out loud or silently) what abundance means to you. Be specific, but gentle. Focus on how you want to feel, not just what you want to receive.
• Ground Your Energy
Take a few deep breaths. Visualise golden light flowing through you and into the bowl.
• Build with Purpose
Each item you place inside carries meaning and energy. Add them slowly, mindfully, with gratitude.
WHAT TO PUT INTO A MONEY BOWL
You can personalise your bowl endlessly, but here are some beautiful, commonly used elements:
💰 Coins & Notes
Money invites money. Use coins or notes from your local currency or foreign coins to represent expansion and opportunity.
💎 Crystals
Crystals amplify intention and anchor energy.
• Citrine – abundance, confidence, success
• Pyrite – wealth, manifestation, action
• Green Aventurine – luck, growth, opportunity
• Clear Quartz – amplification and clarity
. Black Tourmaline or Black Obsidian - protection, purification
. Malachite - transformation, empowerment, growth
Other crystals you could add are Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Smokey Quartz, Tigers Eye, Moss Agate and Carnelian. Although not considered your typical abundance and prosperity stones, their soothing and grounding energies will work harmoniously with your other crystals, strengthening and anchoring their intentions. Together, they will help to create a potent, powerful money bowl infused with healing, tranquil and supported energy.
🌿 Herbs & Natural Elements
• Cinnamon (sticks or powder) for attraction and warmth
• Bay leaves for wishes and success
• Basil for prosperity and flow
• Rice for abundance and nourishment
. Salt for protection
Other beautiful elements you could add are Rose Petals, Lavender, Oregano sprigs and even Cloves. A few drops of your favourite essential oils are also a beautiful addition.
🕯️ Candles
A small gold, green or white candle can be lit when you want to activate or refresh your intentions.
📝 Written Intentions
Write affirmations or desires on small pieces of paper. Fold them gently and place them beneath or within the bowl. Even using the bay leaves to write your intentions on is a common practice to use.
Examples of intentions:
• Money flows to me with ease and joy
• I am supported, abundant and secure
• I attract aligned opportunities effortlessly
Remember this money bowl is made by YOU, for YOU! Adding other personal touches and trinkets is always welcomed and encouraged.
ACTIVATING AND CARING FOR YOUR MONEY BOWL
Your money bowl is not something you create and forget. It is a living ritual.
• Visit it daily or weekly
• Touch it, rearrange it, add gratitude
• Speak affirmations when passing
• Add fresh energy on Full or New Moons
. Nourish it with offerings weekly to keep it refreshed, energised and activated. This could be as simple as a gold coin, a few grains of rice or even a tumble stone.
The more intention and presence you bring, the more energetically potent it becomes.
A GENTLE REMINDER
A money bowl is not about forcing outcomes or attaching to lack. It works best when paired with trust, inspired action and gratitude. It reflects your mindset — when you feel abundant, supported and open, abundance mirrors that back to you.
Let your money bowl be a symbol of self-worth, divine support and energetic flow.
Closing Reflection
Abundance is not something you chase.
It is something you align with.
By creating a money bowl, you are choosing to honour your desires, your dreams and your readiness to receive. You are reminding the universe — and yourself — that you are worthy of a life filled with ease, support and prosperity.
✨ May your bowl overflow.
✨ May your intentions root deeply.
✨ May abundance meet you where you stand.
Love & Light
