It is quite popular among those who are serious about feng shui, because according to this practice, indoor bamboo serves as a talisman, bringing good luck to the house, giving family members health and longevity. There are many signs and superstitions about the content of bamboo at home, but the main thing is that there are no negative ones among them.

Nevertheless, his energy is so strong that his prolonged presence with a sick person can increase the negative impact of the disease and, therefore, worsen the condition, so it is better to take him to the next room. But for the prevention of diseases, this plant will be useful.
Despite the fact that there are the same signs and superstitions about indoor bamboo as about wild, the second (provided it is dropped outside the house, on the street) is not popular even in warm regions of Russia, although it can become an original decoration of a summer cottage.
What does the different number of stems represent?
It is believed that the number of stems affects which areas of life the plant affects:
- 2 – happiness in personal life, successful marriage;
- 3 – attracts good luck, cheers up;
- 4 – death, this number should be avoided;
- 5 – career advancement, success in financial affairs;
- 7 – good health, excellent health;
- 8 – a symbol of infinity, that is, an unlimited addition of what is desired in the actual sphere for the plant owner;
If you are interested in lifting in all spheres of life, then bamboo should be grown from 21 stems, although such a plant will take up a lot of space.
Bamboo and feng shui
The place where this plant is located depends on its esoteric meaning:
- If placed in the eastern part of the house, the beneficial effect will primarily relate to personal life and family happiness.
- Bamboo growing in the southeastern part increases material well-being.
- If bamboo is planted in the southern part, the owners of the house will receive recognition and fame.
There is an opinion that the presence of the Chan Chu toad – a talisman known among adherents of feng shui – enhances the magical properties of the plant.
Can the plant be roasted?
Bamboo can be eaten: fried, steeped in tea (has an antipyretic effect) or infusions (helps to treat the respiratory system, solves digestive and gynecological problems). These properties are recognized even by doctors, and not only by esotericists, so they may seem interesting even to those who do not believe in omens.
It is important to remember that bamboo should never be eaten raw, as it is poisonous, but toxic substances are completely removed during heat treatment. For this reason, care must be taken to prevent small children or pets from chewing on the plant.
So, indoor bamboo not only serves as a pretty decorative element in the house, but can also bring good luck in various areas of life, if you take into account the necessary details. In addition, feng shui adherents consider it one of the main types of house plants that affect the energy of the house and the life of its inhabitants.
