The impact of different plants on Home Feng Shui (1)
In traditional Chinese culture, it is believed that a person’s destiny is influenced by the astrological alignment at birth, while their current fortune is closely tied to changes in their living environment. For example, in excessively warm surroundings, people may feel more irritable, whereas cooler temperatures often promote calm and rational thinking. A suitable environment can bring good fortune, while an unfavorable one may lead to challenges.
In daily life, many people enhance their quality of living by placing plants in their homes. Plants can improve air quality, create a more pleasing aesthetic, and even uplift one’s mood.
However, did you know that the choice of plants matters? Different plants can have varying effects on your home! Here are some examples:
-
Artificial Flowers
While artificial flowers maintain their beauty year-round, they lack vitality. Keeping them in the home for an extended period may create a sense of unease or instability.
-
Cacti
Some people choose cacti for their resilience, drought tolerance, and minimal maintenance requirements. However, the sharp spines of cacti symbolize external aggression. Long-term placement can subtly affect the emotional atmosphere at home, potentially causing tension, restlessness, or even disrupting harmony among family members.
-
Roses (Moon Roses)
Loved for their stunning appearance, roses and Moon Roses are popular choices. However, their sharp thorns and bold, vibrant colors can sometimes attract emotional conflicts or lead to challenging romantic experiences if displayed for extended periods.
These examples are general references, as the effects of plants can vary depending on the household. The type and quantity of plants can also influence the home’s fortune in different ways.
In the next section, we’ll explore the ideal types and quantities of plants for your living space.
