Feng Shui is a popular Chinese tradition that focus on harmonizing your life with the natural elements like water, fire, and earth. It gives great importance in the correct placement of different lucky charms in your home and workplace. It is believed that such practice will give you a harmonious life through the use of your talents without any difficulties.
Hydroponic (roots immersed in water rather than dirt), lucky bamboo plants are used by Feng Shui practitioners for favorable placement around the home or office to bring good fortune to the occupants as well as the home or business. Dwarfed in the same fashion as the bonsai tree, the Feng Shui bamboos are cute versions of the wild bamboos native to Asia and Africa.
A distinctive Feng Shui charm is the lucky bamboo plant, as it has characteristics from each of the five elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water. The plant itself represents wood. The pot that holds the plant signifies Earth. Water is of course the water used to sustain the plant. Finally, a metal coin is placed with the plant, representing metal, and a red ribbon is tied around the pot to represent fire.
By placing lucky bamboo plants in your home you can enjoy improved health, better monetary prospects etc. The benefits that you get depend on the number of stalks in the plant. For example, if your luck bamboo has three stalks, it would help bring happiness in your home.
On the other hand a five stalked lucky bamboo brings in good health for your family. Growing a lucky bamboo plant with four stalks is unlucky as the number four in Chinese sounds like the Chinese word for death. Your florist would be able to select the best bamboo plant to suit your needs.
Lucky bamboo plants are one of the most popular lucky charms used be Feng Shui believers. These plants are now widely accepted as gift items since they are easy to take care of and a have a greater chance for survival. They can live for a longer period of time and do not require much water. It is believed that lucky bamboo plants bring in luck to both the giver and the receiver.
