2. The feng shui role of balcony plants

Balcony plants have the feng shui functions of boosting vitality and dissolving sha (negative energy). If, when looking into the distance from the balcony, there are no buildings creating light sha and the surroundings are open, then any green plant can play a vitality-boosting role; on the contrary, if the balcony faces buildings with more sha energy, giving rise to sharp-corner attacks, reverse bow sha and the like, then plants that dissolve sha should be placed on the balcony, thereby maintaining the balance of balcony feng shui and protecting home feng shui.

3. Feng shui directions for balcony plants

The balcony is the most open area of the home and the place with the most sunlight, so there are quite a few considerations when growing plants there, among which the direction in which the plants are placed is closely related to the fortunes of the family. The most appropriate place to put plants is the southeast of the balcony. The southeast is the Wenchang position, and Wenchang favors wood, so green plants can be placed or planted freely in the southeast, such as lucky bamboo and other vitality-boosting plants, which help the family energize Wenchang and are of great help to the career of the head of the household and the studies of the children. The directions most taboo for placing plants are the southwest and northeast. The southwest will affect the fortune of the lady of the house, while the northeast will affect the children's schooling.

The above is the editor's introduction to the role and directions of balcony plant feng shui, and I hope it helps everyone. Although the balcony does not occupy a very important position in the home, if plants are chosen and placed properly, they can bring good luck to the home.
