Posted January 21, 200025 yr Dear cecil,We understand the use of red string is to control the big metal. But why so much significance is given that the coins should be displayed as a string and should be visible. Thanks.
Posted January 21, 200025 yr Staff Dear Anon, It is important to remember to display the coins even if they are binded together. They will still show the number of coins i.e. 6 coins. But, if we stack the coins together (exactly) and tie them together, you would only see `one coin' but a very thick one coin. Here, unless one goes closely to count them, it simples looks like ONE coin although it is rather `thick'. This is why, one must string the coins and at a glance, show 6 coins. Furthermore, the red (as in the red string) represents the "fire" element to bind or control "big metal". As some kind of a check (and balance). The red tassle and infinity knot are simply meant as decorative piece. Warmest Regards, Cecil P.S. Sometimes the 6 coins can be placed in a circular pattern. Below, a sample of 7 coins represents "Small metal":- Often, to cure imbalances like #5 or #5 with #2 and or #5 with #9, six coins tied with red string are used. This is knwn as a "Big Metal" cure. For some cases, a Feng Shui Master may advice on a lesser cure. For example on a #2 sickness concern. As Seven (7) represents SMALL metal element.

June 21, 20232 yr Staff Separately three coins tied with a red string are often used to enhance wealth. Thus often, for good luck or good measures, the advice is often to place this in one's purse, wallet or bag. Under the Five elements concept: The number 3 represents the Fire element. The coins are metallic. Under the Five elements concept, here "Fire (no. 3) is used to "destroy" metal" to create wealth.
