Lucky bamboo and five elements of fengshui
Lucky Bamboo is believed to bring harmony among his five Feng Shui elements of Water, Fire, Earth, Wood, and Metal, resulting in a more positive life experience.
Soil: Use rocks, pebbles, and clay as soil substitutes to grow lucky bamboo.
Water: Filling your lucky bamboo container with water every time is very important to keep it growing.
Tree: The bamboo trunk itself represents the tree. Fire: Tie a red ribbon or other bright ribbon symbolizing fire to a vase or pot.
Metals: Place metal coins (gold, silver, copper, bronze, brass) in pots or use glass pots to grow bamboo trees that represent metals.
No matter where you place it, you can attract a positive flow of ‘chi’. The eastern part of a house or office represents a family, so the best direction to keep bamboo trees is in the east or southeast corner of the house. Plants should be placed in the prosperity zone of your home to invite wealth and prosperity, and a southeast orientation is best for activating positive energies.
Let us look at some of the uses of the lucky bamboo plant
-
Decoration
Auspicious bamboo is often used for decoration. Requires little maintenance, sunlight, or attention such as pruning or fertilizing, making it a popular plant in offices and homes where plants are sometimes neglected or forgotten. They are often sold as finished products in decorative pots rather than re-potted in traditional containers, so they are also a good option if you want to put minimum effort into taking care of your bamboo plant.
-
Aquarium
Lucky Bamboo thrives in both water and soil, making it a great aquatic plant. It aerates and oxygenates the aquarium water to benefit the fish. In wet environments, Lucky Bamboo does best when the leaves are completely removed from the water. Plants need fresh water, not salt water. It can also be kept in water without an aquarium.

Feng Shui
Feng Shui is the practice of balancing and maintaining the environment, often enhanced by natural elements. Lucky Bamboo represents wood as a natural element. A red ribbon attached to bamboo indicates the element of fire and brings good results. This plant is used in Feng Shui to create a sense of balance, bringing a sense of security and well-being to any room or home.
Lucky Bamboo prefers bright, indirect sunlight to direct sunlight. Its roots need constant moisture. If your plants are turning yellow, they may be getting too much sunlight. The type of water used for plants can also cause yellowing.
Filtered or spring water nourishes Lucky Bamboo better than chlorinated tap water. Over time, the yellowing will spread beyond the leaves and throughout the plant, eventually causing it to die off. Switch to filtered water and see if the health of the plant improves.
