Feng Shui is a Chinese practice applied since antiquity that aims to balance the energies of real estate and environments, bringing harmony and fluidity. One of the principles of this technique, which mixes wisdom, art and science, is the connection with nature.

Therefore, living plants, stones and crystals, air circulation and natural light are the main components used to activate good energy and prosperity in all areas of a home or business, for example.

In literal translation, Feng Shui means wind-water, that is, they are fundamental elements of nature for our existence and if well balanced, they make the environment healthy and vibrating in ideal harmony. Therefore, this practice enables interaction with natural forces even in places with little or no green area.


Harmonization by Feng Shui takes place through the Baguá, a map in hexagonal format, where each guá represents an area of ​​life: success, relationships, creativity, friends, work, spirituality, family, prosperity and health.

In this way, the Baguá can be applied to the plant, whether in a home, office or where you want to apply the technique, in order to activate the energies according to each guá, or corners. Therefore, protective plants are used to attract different purposes and objectives.


Live plants, according to the Feng Shui technique, are fundamental to balance the environment, as wood is present in them. This element renews the vital energy of spaces, in addition to stimulating empathy, flexibility and kindness. The green color present in most plants represents rejuvenation.

In addition, all plants can help in practice and bring energy balance to internal and external areas. However, there are some species that need to be cultivated together with others to harmonize polarities and raise good energies.

In addition to plants, there are other amulets that together help to compose the decoration and, of course, amplify the vibrations of the environment, see some of them:

– Stones and crystals: natural stones have properties capable of neutralizing bad energy and attracting financial prosperity, love, family unity, good health and protection. To achieve these goals, Feng Shui considers seven stones: crystal, onyx, rose quartz, amethyst, agate stone, green quartz and citrine;

– Convex mirror: mirrors can attract prosperity and repel the feelings of envy and evil eye of the environment. Therefore, it is recommended to use it at the gateway to block negative energies;

For Feng Shui all plants are welcome, but there are some species that have the ideal characteristics to be grown in any environment and are considered magical. They are able to drain bad vibes, bringing feelings of well-being and tranquility, as well as energetically activating all areas of life.

Next, check out the selection of the best protective plants for Feng Shui: peace lily, zamioculca, fern and much more!


Lucky bamboo is a traditional Chinese plant and means to bring good energy, health, prosperity and wealth. However, the number of stems will be decisive to achieve a different objective. Since, the arrangement can be made with up to 21 stems, tied with a red satin ribbon that symbolizes fire in Feng Shui.

Grown in a vase, this plant adapts well to indoor environments, requiring little watering, only when the soil is dry and the luminosity should be medium. If the cultivation is in water, it is necessary to change it at least every three days to avoid fungus and mold.


One of the most beloved plants for the practice of Feng Shui, zamioculca brings energy protection, good luck and success in all areas of life. This plant is very hardy and can be grown indoors. It is very common to see it in commercial establishments, offices or in places with little light and ventilation.


According to Feng Shui practice, the peace lily is an essential plant to have at home or at work, as in addition to purifying the air, it absorbs the negative charge present in people and the environment. Thus, she keeps the place cool, bringing peace, harmony and promoting family unity or wherever she is present.


The sword-of-São-Jorge which, depending on the locality, can be known as: mother-in-law’s tongue, lizard’s tail and Sanseveria. In Feng Shui, it is a very powerful plant against dense energies, which cause discomfort indoors. In addition to its healing properties, it filters toxins from the air.

However, as it alludes to a sword, this plant should not be kept indoors or in corners. Because, according to the technique, the Saint George sword can attract arguments, leading to the breakup in relationships. Place the plant at the entrance to the home or outside.

Because it is a resistant plant, its cultivation is easy and requires simple care. Watering can be done every 10 days, except when the earth is dry, but it is not necessary to water with a lot of water and it adapts very well in closed places or with little light.


Another plant that cannot be missing, according to Feng Shui, is the me-no-one-can, as it captures the bad energies directed to the environment, in addition to protecting against envy and malicious people. Despite harmonizing and bringing peace, it should not be placed indoors, as it can generate an excess of energy, generating family conflicts.

Furthermore, its cultivation must be done with care, as the me-no-one-can is considered a natural repellent and, therefore, it is a toxic plant and must be kept out of reach of pets, weakened people and children. To ensure the protection of the home, the ideal is to leave it at the entrance door or in the external area, where the sun and wind do not hit.


Mint is known for its beneficial health properties and is usually consumed through teas, juices and sweet and savory recipes. However, in Feng Shui, this plant has a high energy value capable of bringing mental clarity, helping to make good decisions. Also, she attracts positive energies and financial abundance.

Planting mint is simple and does not require much care. Watering should be daily, but with little water, its cultivation can be done indoors, as long as it receives sunlight in the morning and is not exposed to hot places, as the leaves can burn.


For the Orientals, the happiness tree, as the name implies, attracts good vibes, making the environment happy and healthy. However, there are two species of this plant (the male and the female), which must be grown together, to balance the Yin and Yang polarities.

In addition, for its effect to be noticed, the most recommended thing is that the tree of happiness is given as a gift by a special person. With the right cultivation, this plant tends to attract a feeling of well-being and favor relationships, especially love.


The areca-bamboo, also known as the garden palm, is a plant that brings harmony and positive energies, whether at home or in the workplace. In addition, it neutralizes and absorbs any toxic elements that are floating in the air. The environment gets a feeling of cleanliness and freshness, in addition to raising vibrations and strengthening affective bonds.

Its cultivation can be done both indoors and outdoors, but it is important that this plant has access to sunlight or partial shade. Watering should only be done when the earth is dry, as too much water tends to rot its roots.


For Feng Shui, the fern absorbs impurities from the environment, leaving it purified, in addition, of course, to drain negative energies that overload the place. However, due to its leaves growing downwards, it is recommended that another plant that grows upwards be grown together, to balance the energies.

This happens, because according to philosophy, the foliage that grows downwards tends to attract discouragement, laziness, sleeping difficulties, health problems and addictions. Fern adapts very well in apartments and internal environments, but it should be exposed to light and watered only when the substrate is dry.
