Feng Shui helps to achieve complete harmony with the surrounding world, in particular with nature. Also, the practice of Feng Shui helps a person to activate all the forces of space, which will help change life for the better. What do living or non-living flowers mean according to Feng Shui and what is their purpose?
Feng Shui flower arrangement
Balance of feminine and masculine
An ancient Eastern Chinese practice claims that living plants in the house have powerful energy. They are aimed at improving the life of the owner and helping to achieve well-being, so they must be used in the interior of the apartment.
If you decide to install indoor Feng Shui flowers in your home, then you need to know about each of the plants.
If you choose a flower with sharp leaves and a variegated color, then it will always carry the energy of the Yin principle. Soft, smooth and pastel-colored leaves are present in flowers that have a Yang origin.
Masculine flowers always try to grow taller. That is, their main stem will be directed upward. Plants with a feminine principle always gain size in the horizontal plane and only permanently set lateral leaves.
Begonia: the flower of businessmen and lovers
Begonia received its name in the 17th century in honor of the botanist who studied it. His name was M. Begon. There are more than 400 species of this plant, but three are the most popular. Let's consider the meaning of each type of begonia according to Feng Shui.
Royal begonia
Evergreen bushes with beautiful flowers. They should be placed on the northern windows of those houses that are famous for their hospitality. Begonia is a natural energy filter - no matter what your guests come with, the plant will pass all the energy through itself and give out only positive energy. That is why it is very good for living rooms.
It should also be noted that begonia helps to speed up the pace of your life, and all this will look very harmonious. It also simply needs to be placed in a house where people suffer from frequent bronchitis or simply have a heavy smoker.
Begonia everblooming
A more capricious plant, but very beautiful. This type of begonia should be placed in a house where melancholic or very sentimental people live. Its energy helps control emotions and prevents the progression of depression. If there are troubles or a dark streak in your life, try telling all this to a flower. You will immediately feel relief.
This type is well suited for offices, developing intuition and sensitivity. Such begonia can help overcome indecision and confusion in words at the right moment, as well as the fear of beginning (no matter what - business, recognition, etc.).
Tuberous begonia
Flower of harmony and peace. If installed indoors, it will promote reconciliation, especially among spouses, as well as reduce conflicts between children and parents. It is this type of begonia that can be found among psychoanalysts and psychotherapists. With its help you can get answers to difficult questions or relieve mental stress.
Where to place begonia
This flower should not be placed next to cacti or other similar indoor flowers. Also make sure that the begonia does not stand in a straight line between the doors or window, as it will not have the effect for which it was purchased.
It is advisable to plant a plant with pink, orange and red flowers in one large pot. This will help activate feelings and improve sex life.
How to care for begonia
Although royal begonia is a moisture-loving plant, it cannot be sprayed, as moisture leaves spots on the leaves of the flower that look like burns. She also does not like dark rooms. If you decide to purchase an everflowering begonia, then it needs to create a humid tropical jungle climate.
Tuberous begonia is the most capricious. It should be watered at the same time, but not too wet. It is advisable to keep it in semi-darkness; there should be no drafts in the room, but it should be regularly ventilated.
The influence of colors
In order to most effectively improve your own life and attract certain life events into it, it is important to find out how certain flowers will influence you:
- Tulips are considered to be symbols of happiness and success. In European countries they are associated with Women's Day. They have a positive effect on feminine energy. In China or Japan, gifted tulips have a slightly different meaning. If you give them to a person, it means wishing him quick wealth. It is recommended to place such living plants in the south-eastern part of the house. This will improve family relationships.
- Geranium. It is often used to get rid of tense situations and bring more positivity and humor into your life. It should be placed in the southern part of the room.

Cactus
Every flower has its place
Cactus is recommended for use by those people who work in the field of education or engineering, because this flower helps to collect thoughts and improve logical thinking. It is recommended to place it in a place located in the northern part of the room.

If you are the owner of a private house, then plant the plant near the main entrance on both sides. This way it will prevent negative energy from entering the house.

Chinese rose
The Chinese rose should be used by those people who work in the creative field. It helps overcome outbursts of aggression and laziness. It is also believed to help you tune into your work process and increase your intuition. As a result, your productivity will increase several times and you will achieve prosperity faster.

This tree will help you improve your intimate life and add spark to your relationship. Quite often girls use it to attract love into their lives. You need to keep it near the bed.
Is it possible to store dry roses at home?
Roses fill the house not only with aroma, but also with positive energy until it fades. A dried rose should be thrown away immediately before it becomes a source of negativity. And replace it with a fresh one.
If you carry dried red rose petals in a fabric bag, you can attract love luck into your life. White petals bring happiness in business, pink petals in friendship. And yellow petals mean a speedy recovery.
Keeping a dry rose from a loved one means a quick quarrel and breakup.
Withered roses in rotten water in a vase attract negativity.
Money Tree
The money tree has a positive effect on the financial side of life and helps you become rich. To enhance the effect, you need to hang red ribbons on all the branches and put a few coins of your country under the pot. Chamomiles are of significant importance in a person’s life, because they can bring well-being to the home atmosphere and help a person find true love.
It is better to place it in the western part of the house. Or where many people often gather.
Is it possible to store dried flowers at home?
Our ancestors decorated the red corner of the hut and the space around the icons with bundles and bunches of dry herbs and flowers. This was done for the following reasons:
- This is how the red corner of the hut where the icons stood was decorated;
- Aromatic herbs, even in dried form, improved the air in the room.
Dried medicinal herbs, such as oregano, lavender, thyme, wormwood, tansy, can and even should be placed in the house now. They fill the air not only with a pleasant aroma, but also inhibit the development and reproduction of pathogenic microbes.
There are also bad omens associated with dried flowers. They explain why you should not store dried flowers at home. It is believed that dried flowers in the house provoke illness, misfortune, betrayal, separation and even death. However, it is worth considering that this ban applies only to withered buds and inflorescences in a bouquet.
Expert advice
- You should never put flowers in the bedroom. It is believed that they enhance the energy of the beginning of Yang, which will negatively affect the family and intimate relationships of the couple. As a result, the feeling of love will gradually fade away.
- As soon as the plant begins to wither or dry out, it should be immediately taken outside the house. Otherwise, it will constantly absorb the positive energy of the room, which was addressed to you.
- Never place flowers on the floor. It's better to use regular stands or place them on cabinet shelves. By doing this you will only strengthen their powerful positive energy. Plants in pots do not need to be placed near the bed, because rotting processes are constantly occurring in the soil. They are the ones who can negatively affect your life.
Pros and cons of artificial flowers
Those who like to use artificial flowers to decorate their interiors will tell you that such flowers require virtually no care: they do not need to be watered, loosened the soil in the pot, or fertilized. In any city there is always a store with a wide range of fake, but very beautiful plants.
Large and small, bright and discreet shades, any composition for the most demanding customers. Artificial flowers do not require a special place; they can be placed anywhere.
Artificial flowers do not emit freshness and a pleasant aroma; the synthetic fabric of such plants will fade over time, become ugly and not very clean. Many of the materials from which they are made contain unsafe chemical dyes that will harm the health of both allergy sufferers and healthy people.
What opinion you will adhere to is up to you to decide!
What do flowers symbolize in the life of an ordinary person?
People attach great importance to indoor flowers. Plants fill the room with oxygen and living energy, making the house cozy and attractive.
Housewives usually select flowers so that they match the color scheme of the interior and have a pleasant smell. Also, flower lovers often pay attention to the influence of indoor plants.
So, according to some people, the money tree brings wealth, geranium protects against diseases, and blooming cyclamen helps get rid of nightmares. The red rose is considered a symbol of love, and the cactus signifies patience and constancy.
However, there are different interpretations of plants for the home in the world. They differ depending on the cultural and religious beliefs of a person, his place of residence and his nationality.
Let's sum it up
Thus, artificial flowers can add charm and zest to any room. Therefore, it is not in vain that designers and decorators use them when implementing professional projects. And if household members are not superstitious, then compositions made from artificial materials can be safely used at home as an alternative to potted plants and to create a cozy interior.
Each person must decide for himself how to relate to signs, and whether it is worth keeping artificial flowers at home. We cannot ignore the fact that such plants are dust collectors, and, therefore, a potential source of allergy development. And even the low-quality composition of the raw materials from which artificial flowers are made can cause harm to health.
We draw the following conclusion: now, knowing about these signs, everyone must decide individually for themselves whether they need to keep artificial flowers at home or should refrain from such decor.
