Likutei Moharan 23:9/ליקוטי מוהר"ן כ״ג:ט׳

19. The following relates to section 1. There it is explained that money corresponds to the countenance. See there.

2Thus our Sages taught: The countenance of the land are the wealthy. As Rashi expounds on the verse (Genesis 41:56), “There was famine across the face of the earth”—who are the “face of the earth”? These are the wealthy. This is because both money and wealth are an aspect of countenance, as explained.

3There [the following also relates to section 1]: The desire for money corresponds to darkness, darkened faces…. Study there. This is likewise alluded to in the Zohar (I, 193a): “He puts an end to darkness” (Job 28:3) —this is the dross of gold.
