With the Feng Shui craze still going strong, you should probably be aware that
plant life can have a significant effect upon what you "create"
in your personal and business life.
To start off,
potted plants add oxygen and negative ions to the atmosphere. This is
significant because computers give off harmful positive ions that get gobbled
up by the negative ones.
An office or home filled with well kept, overflowing, healthy plant life is a metaphor for our own abundance. It suggests that you can create abundance in whatever manner you're trying to manifest it - business success, love, etc. But remember, wild, unpruned hanging plants and creeping vines will appear as intruders unless kept under control.
Cacti and other sharply pointed plants (or leaves) need a lot of room so that
they don't create a cutting energy that pierces the psyche of the person
nearby (Ouch.) These plants in confined spaces can create an subconscious
wave of anxiety and Lord knows you've got enough anxiety dealing with your
boss.
Stimulation of any sort tends to elicit and ignite change. You can bring
this stimulation into your indoor work garden with the use of chimes,
fountains and/or mobiles to create change in the direction you want (i.e.
more business success, more love, etc.) In addition, some kind of water
symbols such as a geode with a wavy pattern, a black stone or a bowl of water
represents inner determination and can be place in the center of your
"garden".
A good thing to keep in mind as well is that bright red or magenta colored
flowers help to spark mental, emotional and spiritual clarity. So when you have to get that report done, stare at a rose for a few minutes first.
