The Feng Shui Floral Design

Flowers, especially the ones that you can put in vases or are planted in pots, are powerful design elements. In Feng Shui, flowers that are used as decorative elements show grace, beauty, and even a certain level of sensuality.

 

Flower Arrangements

 

When you’re using flowers and are also thinking of practicing Feng Shui for the first time, you have to learn to use colors and understand what they symbolize. These colors must also be used to achieve balance.

 

An example is when you use red roses paired with orange orchids inside the bathroom. Since these are fiery elements, they can be used to balance the water that’s in abundance in the bathroom.

 

You could pay your local florist a visit and talk about the arrangements that you would like to be created. Don’t forget to remove the thorns because they are bad for the Feng Shui energy.

 

Living Plants

 

When talking about Feng Shui, houseplants are perceived to symbolize new beginnings, growth and even prosperity. These flowering green beauties are powerful decorative tools.

 

There are many houseplants that produce beautiful flowers all you need to do is to pick the one that suits your fancy. Pick also the ones that come with rounded edges since these represent money. They are believed to contribute to one’s wealth. Begonias and violets are best known for this purpose.

 

As Accent Pieces

 

Any floral arrangement would look great as an accent piece in just about any room. These are known to increase the positive energy in a home. Couple them with bagua in the right locations and you would enjoy good energy in your relationships, career, level of creativity, health, and wealth.

 

If you’re also searching for a way to invite some love into your life, then you should definitely decorate your bedrooms with flowers. Use colors that are known to increase passion such as red or pink.

 

Luck Flowers

 

Always check your floral arrangements and potted plant locations. Make sure that they are always optimized for Feng Shui. See to it that the flowers remain fresh and that they have been dethorned.

 

If you’re looking for the flower that would best bring sensuality in your home, then peonies should be your go-to pieces. They also offer a delicious scent that’s so romantic.

 

Peonies are also a popular metaphor for feminine beauty. In fact, Feng Shui masters sometimes do not recommend displaying peonies in older couples’ bedrooms because this could result in an affair with a much younger woman.

 

The lotus is a flower that’s a symbol of perfection. Chinese doctors believe that every part of the plant can be used for medicinal purposes. This is a potent cure for harmony and health problems in homes.

 

As for the cherry blossoms, they are a symbol of innocence and freshness. They share this sense of new beginning with the apple tree, peach, and dogwood. Cherry blossoms are also the Feng Shui cure for marriage, love and health.

 

The Narcissus, in Chinese culture, is a flower that’s believe to increase the positive energy in one’s career, abilities, and talents. The Chinese peoples often use this as a career cure. The white-colored Narcissus is believed to be more potent than the yellow variety.

 

The Chrysanthemum is a Feng Shui symbol for balance. This is a flower that’s known to have yang energy, thus, it brings luck.

 

Feng Shui downers include dried plants and flowers, and potpourri. If you don’t have the time or resources to maintain the houseplants and the fresh flowers, just go for artificial flowers. You can also hang a flower artwork.

 

Just be sure to choose the ones that look real.
