According to Feng Shui, why shouldn’t we have cacti indoors?
Pots of thorny plants, may emit a repulsive and defensive energy, which can also harm us if we touch them, and mostly our children and animals.
As soon as we look at them we sense this feeling of attack, and in reality touching any cactus is dangerous and can even cause infections or allergies.
Avoid cacti that have pointed and sharp leaves inside home because they also have a destructive character and may enable positive energy to flow in harmony.
This polemic theme causes a lot of controversy, specially now that so many people are using plants inside homes and this species are the ones we have to care less, very few watering and some light is enough for them to survive.
Still, inside cacti family we have others that don’t have this sharp points like needles, the succulents and round leafs are great to use inside homes and are just as resistant.
In some cultures the word cactus means “guardian of the house”, as they are plants that symbolize protection and security, in this way outside our house is where they should be placed so that they can protect us without representing danger.
