Indoor plants attract money into the house: Pixabay According to Feng Shui, indoor plants not only purify the air, but also serve as an energy filter for space. They create a favorable atmosphere, attract money and cut off negativity. To open a money channel, it is enough to have the right indoor flower in your house. You can choose your favorite from ten money plants.
Money tree (crassula, crassula)
Specialist in Eastern philosophy Dolma Jangkhu in the book “The Element of Wood in Feng Shui. The Complete Encyclopedia" says that a money tree in a house not only cleanses it of negativity, but also opens the flow of favorable qi energy. Thanks to this plant, home owners gain access to money, abundance and prosperity.
This spreading mini-tree was not called Money for nothing. Its main property is the ability to quickly and easily absorb water, accumulating it in the leaves. This is exactly what you need to do with the money supply - absorb and accumulate, hold on to it and not waste it. In addition, fallen and dried Crassula leaves are covered with a silvery coating, which makes them look like coins.
Experts advise not to buy a flower, but to quietly steal a small twig somewhere. Place it in water, and when roots appear, transplant it into a pot. Install it on the south or southeast side of the house to enhance cash flow.

Which image affects us the most?
The strongest influence of images on us is the bedroom, and, funny as it may seem, the toilet. Be sure to keep this in mind. Ladies can use the flowers they need in the form of brooches, designs on clothes and on avatars on social networks - this also gives a strong influence.
However, one of the most powerful energy recipes is a photograph of yourself taken at a happy moment. You should be healthy there, reasonably beautiful, you can be with someone, the surrounding landscape is better bright and open, with flowers - that’s even better. Your gaze should often come across this image and not cause sadness, but lift your spirits, give the spark for an active life, for further opportunities.
When you begin to realize that the images on the walls are no longer influencing you in the right direction, it is advisable to update the exhibition. Life is fast now, it forces you to move and change directions, so a stationary environment can slow down your development.

Dracaena sandera (indoor bamboo)

- attracts wealth and financial stability.

- unfading vitality;
- accumulation and increase of capital.
The legend that fern flowers indicate places where treasures are buried is also worth taking note. The plant is quite whimsical - remember this when choosing it for landscaping your home.
The leaves and roots of fern have many medicinal properties, which have long been used by ancient healers. I. Filippova talks about this in detail in the book “Doctor on the Windowsill. Amazing properties of indoor plants."

Sakura
The most favorite flowers of the Japanese
Sakura is a tree of the Plum subfamily of the Rosaceae family. The color of the flowers varies from snow-white to crimson and scarlet. Japanese law does not define the “state flower,” but sakura has become so firmly established in Japanese culture that it can be considered a symbol of Japan along with the chrysanthemum.
There are more than 600 varieties of cherry blossoms in Japan, including native and hybrid varieties. Somei-yoshino is the most common
with five-petaled pale pink flowers, developed in the mid-Edo period (1603-1868) and spread throughout the country from the Meiji period (1869-1912).
Sakura variety Somei-yoshino
The Japanese cherry tree occupies such an important place in Japanese culture that the word “flowers” in literature is often used as a synonym for the word “sakura”, dating back to the Heian period (794-1192). Spring picnics with relatives, colleagues, and acquaintances under the cherry blossoms are an integral attribute of spring in Japan. In all regions of Japan there are places famous for the beauty of cherry blossoms, and even some individual cherry trees are famous throughout the country. Such, for example, is the very old “Sakura of the Age of the Gods” ( Jindaizakura
) in Yamanashi Prefecture, which is about 2000 years old, or "Sakura Falls in Miharu" (
Miharu-takizakura
), which is more than 1000 years old, in Fukushima Prefecture.
Cherry blossoms are also closely connected with new meetings and partings, with turning points in human life. The financial and academic year in Japan begins on April 1, and this date falls during the time when cherry blossoms bloom in Kanto and more western regions (usually from the last ten days of March to mid-April). This is when school graduation events take place, this is the period of admission to school, to work, and those who successfully passed the entrance exams are said to have “sakura blossoms.”

Sakura in Japanese cuisine
Sakura is not only admired. Wood, flowers, leaves, and sakura fruits are used on the farm. The fruits of some varieties are eaten. Soft flowers of oshimazakura
and
yaezakura
are salted and then prepared into sweets or other dishes.
Pickled sakura flowers, if thrown into hot water, take on their previous shape, as if blooming again, and therefore have a benevolent meaning and a drink from them, sakurayu
, are a favorite treat during dates arranged for the purpose of marriage (
o-miai
), or at weddings. In addition, these flowers are used to decorate bread or cookies, and are also boiled with rice to add flavor.

Sakura in Japanese culture
Sakura was first mentioned in the chronicle-mythological collection “Annals of Japan” ( Nihon shoki
), completed in 720. It tells how a flower fell into a bowl of sake held by the 5th century Emperor Rityu.
In later literature, there are many works in which sakura appears. They are not only about the beauty of flowers and hanami
, “flower admiration” under flowering trees. The exquisite features of beautiful women are likened to sakura flowers, they express respect to sakura, which blooms for so short a time and then crumbles overnight, they see in it a courageous acceptance of one’s fate and cite it as an example of impermanence, the frailty of existence. Thus, sakura became a symbol of the fleeting beauty of the transient, having a certain influence on the formation of ideas about life and death.
The Japanese love for sakura survived the post-war reforms and now manifests itself in music. One of the most famous songs, a kind of “calling card” of Japan, is called “Sakura, Sakura”, and in general the number of songs with this word in the title has exceeded a hundred; songs whose lyrics mention sakura are impossible to count.

Zamioculcas is often called the wish tree or dollar tree. The plant has amazing vitality and can be propagated by cuttings, seeds, tubers or leaves. So the best way to attract money to your home is to secretly take a sprig of zamioculcas from a rich house.
The plant is quite unpretentious and does not need abundant watering, accumulating moisture in the tubers. Even if it dries out, start watering the dry bush and it will quickly come to life.

Why is sakura a symbol of Japan?
Sakura or Japanese cherry tree is one of the most famous symbols of Japan. When the Land of the Rising Sun is mentioned, the imagination necessarily evokes an association with a flowering ornamental plant of the plum subfamily, covered with a cloud of white and pink petals. The name "sakura" comes from the word "saku", which means "to bloom" and the plural ending "-ra". The ornamental plant blooms from late March to early April. During the remaining seasons, the trees are covered only with a crown of foliage, which falls off by winter.
The brief but magnificent season figuratively represents human life, when blossoming is inevitably followed by withering and death. The days of the spring equinox, when cherry trees bloom, are a time of religious holidays, which include rituals of requests for a good harvest. In this sense, the sakura flower is a symbol of prosperity and good luck.
Another symbolic meaning is to express the connection between people, representing various concepts such as courage, sadness and happiness. Cherry blossoms in Japanese culture are a manifestation of pure beauty. In addition, sakura is a metaphor for the fact that nothing lasts forever in this life. The theme of everything transitory, changing in the world, occupies a central place in the Buddhist religion.
The cherry blossom season coincides with the beginning of the Japanese Old New Year, which until 1873 was celebrated according to the lunar calendar and occurred at the beginning of spring. Hence, in the minds of the Japanese, there is a strong association with the beginning of something new, which is expected with enthusiasm and optimism. In different historical periods, the cherry blossom symbolized Japanese nationalism and militarism.
In Bushido, the code of the samurai, sakura was chosen as an emblem symbolizing the feat of a warrior who gave his life for the emperor. Samurai tattooed a cherry blossom as a reminder of the transience of life, when every day could be the last, so you should appreciate every moment and rejoice at any manifestation of beauty.
During World War II, these flowers were painted on kamikaze planes. Also in national aesthetics, sakura flowers represent the beauty and sexuality of a woman, her ability to control her emotions and dominate men. In the “language of flowers”, a sakura branch also means love and passion. Another meaning given to a delicate flower is innocence, simplicity and spring purity:
“At the time of blossoming Cherries are akin to clouds - Isn’t that why the soul has become more spacious, Like the spring sky...” (Kamo Mabuchi)
The color of the petals depends on the subspecies; there are white, pinkish and deep pink, scarlet, yellow, pale green shades. Japan hosts a spectacular national hanami festival in honor of the beloved tree. Relatives and friends gather for a picnic in cherry parks under the shade of fragrant branches, where they celebrate the beginning of the flowering season. The image of a sakura flower is used to decorate clothes (kimonos), letter paper, covers of notebooks and notepads, and household items, including kitchen utensils.
For centuries, cherry blossoms have inspired Japanese artists, who included cherry blossoms as landscape decorations in elegant prints. The cult of decorative cherries has been adapted in other cultures. In a number of countries, the tree is planted to decorate streets and parks. Since 1912, Washington DC has celebrated the Cherry Blossom Festival every year.
Cactus
Cacti are not only exotic. They are considered a plant that attracts monetary energy. Although the aura of cacti is considered aggressive, it is thanks to it that successful business projects are born and real breakthroughs are made. It is better to keep cacti in the office.
These plants sharpen the mind, making people spend their money more wisely. The more cacti surround you, the more you will feel cheerful, strong and determined. Money loves the brave, and cacti make their owners brave, even desperate adventurers.
If you like flowering miniature cacti, then place them on the windowsill: it is believed that these plants drive away thieves and prevent attacks from ill-wishers.

bougainvillea
The unusual bougainvillea is called the paper flower because its bright red flowers appear to be made of thin papyrus. The plant came from South America. It is believed that the bright greenery, red buds and abundance of blossoming inflorescences on the bushes make bougainvillea a symbol of monetary abundance and success.
The evergreen plant loves bright places in the house, so feel free to place it in a window or in a brightly lit area of the living room. There is no need to move the flower pot once again - the plant can shed all its leaves in an instant.
Green and red colors are favorable for monetary energy, and simple flower care will provide a person with a comfortable existence.
Indoor bougainvillea: Freepick
A house where flowers bloom is always full of warmth and joy. Choose a plant to your taste, do not chase the number of red pots in the house. The most important thing is that the energy of the plant and the household coincide. Then the indoor flower will turn into a magnet for money, and its owners will believe in their own strength and will definitely achieve success.
