My applications folder is suddenly empty, what happened and how do I fix it?

I was moving things around on my desktop and folders and now my applications folder is empty. All programs are still working, but I can't see any of them. What happened and how do I fix it? I'd greatly appreciate the help!

Click the Spotlight magnifying glass icon top right in your screen then type in the name of an application.


Hopefully it will show where it is.
