Feng Shui is the Chinese notion of spatial arrangement in home interiors. Like our traditional architecture, its basis is to increase positive energy and eliminate negative energy, thus producing beneficial results. The first word you hear when discussing Feng Shui is 'Chi'. It means the energy that fills the entire universe. In Feng Shui, An auspicious and prospering space is a sign of good Feng Shui. A place with stagnant and decaying Chi will have bad Feng Shui. According to Feng Shui placing plants inside a house is significantly connected with the belief of bringing in fortunes.
Beliefs based on this Chinese mythology warn against placing cacti inside offices or homes. No matter how beautiful the flowering cacti are, the 'Chi' they emit is not good at all. Their thorns constantly create negative Chi. As a result, illnesses and losses will become commonplace over time. The best place for them is outside the house and office. When placed outside, they become very good protectors.
Bonsai plants always show stunted growth. Therefore, it is not good Feng Shui. There's nothing wrong with having small plants arranged beautifully in bonsai form; that is good 'Chi'. However, making large trees and other plants into bonsai is not good for the home. They may be very old and valuable, but that doesn't make them good Feng Shui. If you absolutely must have a bonsai, place it in the north. Never place it in the east or southeast. Avoid placing plants in the bedroom. Placing plants in the east of the living room will yield good results.
Feng Shui says that Chinese Bamboo is a plant that can bring good fortune to homes and institutions. Although it is known as Chinese Bamboo, the truth is that it is not a bamboo plant. It is a plant that grows to only a foot and a half tall. Its stems only resemble bamboo in appearance. It is a plant perfectly suited to indoor environments. It was cultivated in China over 4000 years ago. Its purported purpose is to fill the home with positive energy and bring good luck.
Chinese Bamboo should be planted in a place that receives moderate sunlight. It is also important to ensure that it receives adequate water. Chinese Bamboo symbolizes water and wood, two elements essential for human existence. Therefore, the belief is that when it is protected, the natural forces of water and wood are pleased. Chinese Bamboo is usually bought with ten or more bamboo stalks tied together with a red ribbon. This red ribbon represents fire.
Pay special attention to choosing a glass container when planting. You can plant as many stalks together as you like, excluding the number four. Usually, Chinese Bamboo is placed in living rooms. Adding decorative stones, gels, and marbles to the planting container enhances its attractiveness.
