Keeping violets at home: signs and superstitions.

Many women who love indoor plants have violets in their house. The signs and superstitions associated with this flower is the topic we will review with you today. Once this beautiful plant, the second name of which is Saintpaulia, adorned the windowsill of almost every house, because there was an era marked by the fashion for floriculture. However, today many women are also engaged in breeding violets. But is it worth getting such a beautiful flower in a city apartment? Do violets pose any danger to their owners? Let's figure it out.

Negative beliefs about violets.

There are quite a few signs and superstitions about the violets, although only two facts can be attributed to negative ones. The first is more like a legend than the truth. There is an opinion that unmarried girls should not plant this flower at home, since it scares away potential candidates for their hand and heart from them. However, today, happy women flower growers who are engaged in breeding this indoor plant refute this superstition, because there are many of those among them who, having a violet at home, state that this did not prevent them at all from meeting their significant other, are successfully getting married, and having children.

But the second negative belief is still worth listening to. It says that violets plant is an energy vampire; therefore, it affects the well-being of people living with it in the same room negatively. In fact, botanists have proved that the flower “vampires” only at night, absorbing oxygen actively and emitting carbon dioxide, while in the daytime it acts exactly the opposite. Therefore, it is possible to plant a violet at home, but it is best to "settle" it in the room where no one sleeps - in the kitchen, in the living room or in the study, if you do not want to wake up broken and sleepy.

Positive signs about violets.

Now let's talk about good omens and superstitions about the violet flower. And, it should be noted, there are many more of them than negative ones. A healthy, well-groomed and flowering violets plant is believed to fill home with happiness. It strengthens family relationships, creates harmonious atmosphere, improves the financial situation of household members, and also has a positive effect on children. Surprisingly, but true: small kids who spend a lot of time in the same room with violets are less likely to get sick and get naughty, and adolescents - more easily pass through the transitional age. But do not forget that the flower still needs to be removed from the children's room at night, since its healing properties are active only during the day.

There is also an interesting sign about violets associated with pregnancy. It is believed that if the owner of a violet found one flower on it during flowering, which is different in color from all the others, she will soon become a mother.

And this plant can also be called a real peacemaker, like a Sansevieria (mother-in-law’s tongue), since it can smooth out conflicts, reconcile quarreled relatives and colleagues (in the latter case, the sign is relevant if a violet grows in an office). Resourceful housewives have empirically found out that insects, for example, cockroaches and ants, disappear very quickly from the house where Saintpaulias grow, and this is especially true in the country and in apartments where not very tidy neighbors live behind the wall.

Superstitions about violets of different colors.

According to signs, violets at home can carry different meanings - it depends on the color of the plant. Of course, in all cases it will be positive, but the nuances themselves change. So, for example, it is recommended to grow white violets in a large family where there are children, since they will not only have a good effect on the little ones, but also clear the negative thoughts of all household members, calm their nerves, provide good mood, and also instill the desire to maintain cleanliness, order and comfort in the hostess.

Pink saintpaulias (violets), as well as plants with red flowers, will perfectly fit into the interior of indecisive people who find it difficult to cultivate willpower. Such plants save households from laziness, increase their motivation, and force them not to give up what they have begun. Another positive property of these flowers is an increase in the immunity of all people living with it under the same roof. And also violets of red shades allow you to part with an excessive addiction to material goods, as well as the habit of overeating.

A violet with blue flowers is a must for creative people. Saintpaulias of this pleasant coloring can be found in children's circles, music studios, art workshops, educational institutions for a reason. According to the signs and superstitions about violets, the blue varieties of this plant reveal the personal potential of their owner and help him find inspiration in everything around him.

Purple Violets are perhaps the most popular species. It has a positive effect on all areas of life, brings mutual understanding, harmony to the house, and also helps household members make the right decisions, negates conflicts and rivalry between family members.
