Never keep these plants near your entrance; Here’s why

The entrance to your home is more than simply a door; it’s where energy comes in. The Lion Gate in Vastu and the Mouth of Chi in Feng Shui are the same thing. This is where health, happiness, and wealth come in or get blocked.The things you put near this area have a direct effect on the energy in your home. People normally think of plants as pleasant things to have, however not all of them will make your entryway feel good. Some common indoor plants might slow down growth, upset your emotional equilibrium, or stop the flow of good energy, which can have a long-term effect on your life.Here are the exact plants you should never keep by your front entrance and why.

Peace Lily

The Peace Lily is a popular plant for modern homes since it has gorgeous white blossoms and cleans the air. But in a more abstract sense, this plant is linked to grief, strong feelings, and energy that is traveling from one area to another. People typically use it to plan funerals, and having it near the front door can give the house a somber tone that lasts. Instead of a vibrant, inviting energy, the Peace Lily may bring a deep grief or lack of desire to this vital energetic entrance.

ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia)

The ZZ plant is popular since it doesn’t take much care and has lustrous, dark green leaves. But it has a weighty, calm atmosphere that doesn’t go with the openness you need at your door. Feng Shui says that the thick leaves of this plant are associated to “dormant” or “stagnant” chi, which might keep you from moving forward, gaining money, and getting new chances in your life. It’s great for corners of the office or rooms with little light, but if you want to keep your home feeling fresh and lively, keep it away from the door.

Plants with Dark or Dull-Colored Leaves

Some types of coleus or colocasia have leaves that are very dark, dull, or virtually black. These plants can absorb too much light and energy, which can make the air feel heavy and stifling. In the entrance, where energy should be active and wide, these plants can look and feel “closed off.” Instead of letting in light, they make things feel dark or even emotionally dull, which is undesirable for homes that need to be lifted and relocated.

Rubber Plant (Ficus elastica)

The Rubber Plant has thick, waxy leaves that hold things down, but it also possesses a strong, heavy energy. This weight could make you feel stuck emotionally, not desire to change, and let less abundance flow near the entrance. Its dark, shiny aspect is also like how hidden or suppressed feelings look, which makes it a horrible choice for the front door area where you want everything to be open, clear, and moving.

Snake Plant (Sansevieria)

People often praise the Snake Plant, which is also called Mother-in-Law’s Tongue, for being so pretty and cleaning the air so well. But its sword-like leaves give off a lot of energy, which Feng Shui calls “sha chi.” This energy could feel like it’s against you or fighting you. People in the house could feel uncomfortable, impatient, or defensive without knowing it if you put this plant near the front door. It can help keep you safe in some situations, but it’s too strong for your entryway.

Cotton Plants or Artificial Flowers

Cotton plants may look fragile, yet they represent for frailty and things that don’t last. They grow dusty and break down quickly over time, which means that they aren’t being used and the energy isn’t moving. Even if they resemble real, fake flowers don’t have “prana,” or life force energy. Having them at your door won’t do anything to bring in or activate good energy. They don’t help; they just make the entryway to your home feel dreary and stagnant.

Bonsai Plants

People enjoy bonsai trees because they look lovely and show self-control, but that’s the problem. Their modest, closely controlled growth represents limitation. Putting a Bonsai plant at your door may mean that you are limiting your career, financial, or emotional growth. It sends a powerful but delicate message of “containment” to the energy that comes into your home. You can use these plants to decorate your home or meditate, but don’t put them by the front door.
