Plants do much more than just brighten up your living space—they can bring good luck, positive energy, and balance to your home. Certain plants, according to Vastu and Feng Shui principles, are considered especially auspicious and can enhance harmony, prosperity, and well-being in your life. Here are a few of these green wonders that not only look great but also create a positive vibe in your home.
1. (Pothos):
Perhaps the most famous of the bunch, the Money Plant is often touted as a bringer of wealth and financial success. Its round, heart-shaped leaves symbolize wealth, prosperity, and good luck. According to Vastu, placing this plant in the southeast corner of your home attracts money and helps resolve financial issues. It’s also easy to care for, making it perfect for beginners.
2. (Holy Basil):
A revered plant in Indian households, Tulsi is believed to bring purity and positive energy into the home. Known for its medicinal properties, Tulsi is also spiritually significant and is said to protect the family from negative energies. Keeping a Tulsi plant in the northeast corner of the house is ideal for bringing in peace and harmony.
3. :
Bamboo is considered a symbol of good luck, health, and growth. According to Feng Shui, placing a bamboo plant in the east or southeast corner of your home can attract prosperity and positive energy. The number of bamboo stalks also holds significance: five stalks symbolize wealth, three for happiness, and two for love.
4. :
Peace Lilies are not just beautiful; they’re also great for purifying the air. This plant is associated with peace, harmony, and calmness, making it ideal for creating a relaxing environment at home. Peace Lilies thrive best in the living room or bedroom, where they help maintain a peaceful atmosphere and improve indoor air quality.
5. (Mother-in-Law’s Tongue):
With its tall, sword-like leaves, the Snake Plant is another great air purifier that can absorb toxins and improve indoor air quality. According to Vastu, the Snake Plant is known to attract positive energy while protecting the home from negative influences. Place it in the southeastern, southern, or eastern corners of your home for the best results.
6. :
The Lotus flower holds deep spiritual significance and is revered in many cultures for its symbolism of purity and enlightenment. In Vastu, the Lotus is considered an auspicious plant, especially when kept near a water body like a small indoor fountain or fish tank. It’s said to bring peace and spiritual upliftment to the family.
7. :
Aloe Vera is well-known for its healing properties, but it’s also believed to ward off negative energies. According to Vastu, Aloe Vera helps maintain positive energy flow in the home and can bring health benefits to the family. Place it near a sunny window, and you’ll have both an energy booster and a skin-care helper.
