Zamioculcas omens and superstitions

The homeland of Zamioculcas is hot Africa with harsh climatic conditions. It was discovered at the beginning of the 19th century by an English botanist-collector. Many flower growers are already confidently associating signs and superstitions with Zamioculcas, the veracity of which we will try to analyze in this article.

Wayward plant from Zanzibar

    As a plant, Zamioculcas (aka Zanzibar, aka emerald palm tree) has short temper disposition and unpretentious character:
  • zamioculcas loves the shade, but is not afraid of the sun
  • it prefers rare watering: no more often than the soil in a pot is completely dry
  • Zamioculcas is genetically adapted to significant temperature changes: of course, it will not survive the February blizzard, but in the African savanna it is also cold on winter nights - up to zero
  • zamioculcas is not susceptible to insect attacks: the leaves and shoots of the plant contain weak poison (care must be taken that babies and animals that can chew the bush do not come into contact with it, but otherwise it is completely harmless)

Thanks to its beautiful appearance and ease of care, Zamioculcas is very popular with a number of gardeners.

But the properties that it is endowed with are rather contradictory.

Signs about zamioculcas: can you keep it at home?

The overseas plant is credited with the ability to attract money to the house, to ensure women's happiness, but at the same time it is called “driving men away”. Some people confidently argue that the name "dollar tree" is just a successful invention of marketers.

Is it worth bringing this plant with its incomprehensible reputation into the house?

Dollar tree zamioculcas

Even if the monetary properties of the plant were invented by marketers, the laurels for a successful move do not belong to European advertisers. Initially, a plant brought from another continent was expensive in Europe, only wealthy people who had no problems with dollars could afford it.

But in China, Zamioculcas is known as the Golden Tree. Moreover, it has been known for so long that it has managed to acquire numerous traditions: for example, on New Year's holidays it is decorated like a Christmas tree.

    Rules for keeping Zamioculcas according to Feng Shui:
  • Zamioculcas should be planted only in fresh soil and a new pot, bought specifically for the African guest; you can put a few coins in the drainage layer, preferably foreign ones.
  • In order for the flower to begin to do its job as a “money magnet”, Zamioculcas must be settled in the southeastern sector of the house: in the wealth zone.
  • It’s good if the “Golden tree” is not bought, but given to you; it is absolutely wonderful if the gift is timed to coincide with any holiday date.

By following these simple recommendations, you can expect that Zamioculcas will become a real Feng Shui talisman for wealth.

Woman's happiness

If a girl cannot get married for a long time, she is advised to have zamioculcas at home. It is believed that it fights negative energy well and promotes happiness in personal life.

Perhaps the sign about zamioculcas and the family is associated with the characteristics of flowering. At home, the plant blooms reluctantly and so rarely that it becomes a real event. Its flowers have the shape of a corncob, directed upwards, resembling in their appearance "an object of male pride." In the beliefs of any nation of the world, one can find phallic symbols, which were used as amulets to protect family well-being, fertility, and procreation.

Thus, according to legend, make sure that the zamioculcas blooms - and you can count on a coming happy marriage. Just don’t buy a plant: the sign says that by paying, you can give away your female destiny with money.

For married couples, the flowering of the emerald palm portends profit: a new position, the birth of a child, etc.

Celibacy plant: signs

Why and according to what signs, zamioculcas was nicknamed the "flower of celibacy"?

The Zanzibar plant belongs to the aroid family. Its closest relatives are monstera, dieffenbachia, spathiphyllum. Almost all representatives of the aroid bear the stigma of "driving men away", and the spathiphyllum is also very similar to the zamioculcas in appearance.

It is believed that the plants of this family have a powerful male energy, which begins to “compete” with the energy of a potential groom, making him feel uncomfortable. It is as if an unconscious conviction is being transmitted to him: "this territory is busy, leave." He leaves - after long scandals out of nothing or simply losing interest in continuing the relationship.

It is impossible to prove or disprove this belief by scientific methods, but one can refer to numerous examples.

“In my collection there were two ivies, which are commonly called “driving husbands away”. I never attached importance to signs, although my personal life did not take shape until almost 30 years old. However, it is interesting that my ivies withered two weeks after the wedding - only they alone.

From such situations in life, we can conclude that an exaggeratedly bad reputation is attributed to the aroids. A man with strong energy, strong character and clear intentions just cannot be kicked out. It will be not him who will have to vacate the territory, but the plant.

Signs about zamioculcas endow the plant with negative qualities, but, fortunately, there are methods to determine whether you have a crown of celibacy, and whether it is worth looking for the causes of loneliness in love for floriculture.

"Zanzibar Pearl" and magical rites to attract good luck

Like any living creature, Zamioculcas loves affectionate treatment. The owners of the plant are recommended to say kind words to it more often; wiping the leaves from dust, stroking them.

    The Taoist philosophy of Feng Shui advises decorating the Golden Tree:
  • to enhance financial inflow, tie a scarlet ribbon on the plant;
  • planting a money frog at the roots;
  • hanging coins on strings on the leaves (you can even hang chocolate coins, in bright foil - the main thing is a symbol of money, not a face value).

To protect your wallet from theft and loss, you need to decorate the “currency bush” with banknotes of different states. And if you want money to come and be spent on various pleasant needs, then bills need to be changed from time to time.

Many owners water their plants with special water, in which they keep coins. It is believed that such "monetized" water enhances the properties of the plant. Precious metals can also be used instead of coins.

Zamioculcas replanting should be carried out only on the waxing moon. Firstly, it has been scientifically proven that Zamioculcas is sensitive to lunar phases; during the period of the growing luminary, all its processes are activated. Secondly, any esoteric tradition claims that no good undertaking should be carried out on a flawed, waning moon.

    Zamioculcas is also credited with such signs:
  • if you watch your bush, water and care for it, but it still turns yellow and fades, be careful in financial matters;
  • if the plant began to grow quickly and magnificently, a period of great luck awaits you;
  • abundant flowering promises incredible well-being.

For a girl who wants to find female happiness, the Zamioculcas sign advises to do the following. During the flowering period, you need to tell the plant about your desire every day and do not forget to thank your flower of luck. Special conspiracies and whispers for zamioculcas have not yet been invented, however, when it comes to a secret desire, it is best to express it in your own words coming from the heart.

Signs can be trusted, or you can laugh at them. However, one should not write off the influence of thought, which has considerable power that can change human life. Be kind to the Zanzibar Pearl, believe in it, take care of it, and you will see that kindness and faith can work wonders.
