Folk signs: what is possible, what is not?

To trust folk omens or not is a personal matter for everyone. At the same time, it is worth remembering that most often signs arise on the basis of long-term observations of ancestors. Consider what the appearance of some indoor plants in the house entails:

1. Cacti are unfavorable plants for the home. It is believed that the presence of a cactus in the apartment turns the husband into a person suffering from alcoholism. There is a second sign, which says that in a house where there is a cactus, a girl will not marry happily or will not meet a chosen one at all. Also, cactus has a bad effect on relationships between family members.
2. Ferns take vitality from a person, being an energy vampire. In a house with a fern, a person will feel constantly tired, inactive, sleepy.
3. Ivy and climbing plants, according to folk signs, scare men away. In a house where there are such plants, a man will constantly strive to go somewhere. In addition, ivy negatively affects the state of mind, depriving a person of optimism and balance. It is best to keep these plants outside the house. So, ivy will act as a protector.
4. Dieffenbachia is dangerous for its poisonous properties, and also takes health away from the household.
5. Mother-in-law's tongue is a plant that has practically no stem, with elongated longitudinal leaves with a bright green color. It is believed that the presence of such a flower in the house leads to loneliness and the inability of the girl to get married. The plant has a negative effect on feminine strength, so it is dangerous to keep it in the bedroom. The flower, as it were, "drives" men out of the house.
6. Sansevieria is a curious plant that looks like the tail of a fish. For this reason, it is also nicknamed the "pike tail". The leaves of the flower, painted green, have such a bizarre shape. The plant blooms and has a pleasant aroma. But, according to the signs, it negatively affects family and personal life. The presence of this flower in the house leads to loneliness.
7. The palm tree often decorates the interiors of many rooms, but it is better not to put such a flower at home. The palm tree contributes to the appearance of grief in the family, if it was presented to you. Save this plant for office spaces or other locations.
8. Ficus can cause allergies, but in addition, it is believed that the flower negatively affects the appearance of children in the house. If you want a child, then this plant is not worth purchasing. Ficus has long been controversial. There is a directly opposite opinion on this plant. It says that ficus solves the problem of infertility and contributes to family well-being.

Conclusion

In conclusion, I would like to say that the choice of indoor plants is more dependent on your personal preferences. Observe safety precautions when handling poisonous flowers. Do not forget about their danger to children and animals.

Most likely, you know that the cultivation of climbing flowers and vines, in some way, prevents living with a man under the same roof. These plants include: ivy, tradescantia, epipremnum, golden mustache, however, there are also nuances and interesting moments here. Let's try to figure it out what flowers should not be kept at home and why.

What plants can't be kept at home and why?

Based on the rules and technologies of the teachings of Feng Shui, actually lianas, ivy, and other loaches are able to secure a home. Reflect negative energy, drive away negative in the form of poisonous arrows sha-chi, which is always directed in one direction and is emitted by objects in the apartment. Another feature of the curly assistants is the compensation of unwanted energy in the form of a "curtain" of your home.

Although from the point of view of science, loaches help purify the air. Apparently you shouldn't be so categorical about climbing plants.Although, now you know why you can't keep climbing plants at home.

It is not known where the distrust of Tradescantia, a beautiful and fairly common plant that supposedly "drives away" the male sex, came from, but it also symbolizes prosperity and well-being.

The flower has an incredibly sensitive energy, it is susceptible to any changes in the house, such a green indicator that allows you to identify the presence of problems in the apartment or an unsatisfactory state, both emotional and physical, of family members. If a flower reveals such energy, it withers, withers, dries up, the leaves lose their vitality. If everything is fine in the house, you are provided with a charge of positive energy.

What pets should not be at home based on the teachings of Feng Shui?

According to the principles of ancient science, cacti are prohibited from being in the house. Many believe that finding poisonous flowers in the house is not safe, without having a Feng Shui consultant among friends, it is impossible to get a clear answer.

Is the presence of cacti in a dwelling a necessity or a harm? There is no categorical prohibition on Feng Shui, but some caution should be exercised, not to place "thorns" and their relatives near bedrooms, rest rooms and children's rooms. To talk about their predisposition (thanks to thorns) to contributing to scandals and squabbles, the ability to make a person aggressive and hot-tempered. But with regard to the study, kitchen, corridor - there are no such prohibitions, you can freely have thorny friends to reflect negative energy.

To date, scientists have confidently stated that the cactus has nothing to do with the absorption of negative, electromagnetic radiation (and after all, not so long ago, the monitor of each computer certainly had a pot with an assistant flower, and we sincerely believed that we were absolutely protected from any effect on the body ) that come from a television or computer screen. The presence of a cactus located in the office can contribute to an increase in efficiency and brain activity, thereby extending the length of the working day and increasing productivity.

Popular beliefs recommend not to grow a cactus for girls of marriageable age, that they want to bring the meeting with the groom closer, since the sharp needles of the plant are able to drive away future gentlemen.

However, if you are already married, not superstitious, or do not want to get married in principle, definitely place the cacti around the perimeter of the windowsill, because the same thorns contribute to the reflection of hostile energy.
