1. Add some plants in front of the house
Adding plants in front of the house is believed to attract positive energy for homeowners. This is because plants symbolize the growth and development of the residents of the house, both in terms of spiritual, intellectual, and economic.
Also make sure that the plants in your yard have the five feng shui elements, namely wood (green), earth (yellow), fire (red), water (blue, gray, or black), and metal (white). The five feng shui elements are said to represent the universe, so they can bring good energy to the owner of the house.
2. Place the plants on the side of the driveway
Position the plants in the yard area that does not interfere with the direction of the entrance to the house. Make sure the entrance is not blocked by plants. It would be better if you place plants on both sides of the driveway because it is believed to be useful as an energy activator.
In addition, placing plants on both sides of the entrance can also add to the impression of a more shady house because it is surrounded by trees or plants that are dominated by green.
3. Get to know the plants that bring profit and bad luck
The selection of plants to be planted in the home area should also not be arbitrary. Sometimes, many homeowners only choose large plants and trees so that their yard can look more shady and avoid the scorching heat of the sun. However, in feng shui, each plant can bring good luck or bad luck.
We recommend choosing plants that have flowers with bright and striking colors, because flowers with beautiful colors have a symbol for the development and growth of homeowners. In addition, SoHip can also add shrubs which are known as carriers of relationships and development, fruit plants that bring prosperity, to bamboo plants that are able to repel negative energy for their owners. Avoid planting papaya trees, cotton plants, and cactus plants in the house, because according to feng shui, these three types of plants can bring bad luck and attract bad energy into the house.
4. Pay attention to the size of the plant so it doesn't interfere
If large trees are planted in the front yard of the house in a row, then based on feng shui, the trees are believed to be able to ward off negative energy that will enter the house. It doesn't have to be planted in the front yard of the house, if you have a large enough backyard area, SoHip can plant these large trees in the backyard area. Then, small and medium-sized plants can be placed in the front yard of the house to beautify the terrace of the house.
The arrangement patterns in feng shui reflect several patterns that are very compatible with modern artistic concepts and landscapes, such as a green dragon on the left side, a white tiger on the right, a parrot in front of the house, and a black knight guarding the back of the house.
5. Adjust the number of plants to the size of the house
The number of plants must also adjust to the size of the house so as not to make the house seem cramped. If the house is only small and minimalist, you should not force yourself to plant too many plants and trees. Arrange the placement of plants properly so that they can adapt plants to limited home conditions.
For example, if SoHip's house is only 12 meters wide, SoHip can plant a maximum of six types of plants so that it doesn't overcrowd the house and doesn't make the house too cramped because it's too full of plants.
6. Make sure the position and direction of the plant is correct
Placing plants at home also requires careful consideration, lo. Because the position and direction of the plant can affect the energy received by the homeowner. The right direction can bring positive energy, while the wrong direction can invite negative energy for homeowners.
Instead, pay attention to the position and direction of the orientation of the plant in order to adjust to the rules of feng shui. Do not be mistaken in determining the position and direction of the plant, because the reverse direction can bring up negative energy.
