Plants not only enhance the beauty of the house, but many people also associate them with auspiciousness and positive energy. This is the reason why nowadays people prefer gifting plants instead of flower bouquets. However, special rules have been given regarding some plants in Vastu Shastra. It is believed that gifting some plants to another person can have negative effects.

According to the beliefs to Vastu, plants should be selected thoughtfully. Not every plant gives the same effect. Some plants are considered good to plant in the house, but giving them to someone else is not considered auspicious. Therefore, if you are planning to gift a plant on any special occasion, then it is important to first know which plants should be avoided as gifts.

Why are thorny plants not considered auspicious in Vastu Shastra?

According to Vastu beliefs, thorny plants are considered to increase stress and negativity in the house. Although many people keep them in their home or office for decoration, but it is not considered good to gift them to anyone else. It is believed that the energy of distance and differences can also be added to relationships with such plants.

Experts say that except roses, most of the thorny plants should be kept with caution from Vastu point of view. When these are gifted to someone, it is considered to symbolize a negative sign rather than a good message. This is why many people avoid gifting plants like cactus.

Similarly, the betel plant is also considered very sacred from the religious point of view. It has special importance in worship and auspicious works. It is believed that this plant is associated with Goddess Lakshmi and brings auspiciousness in the house. But according to Vaastu beliefs, it is not considered appropriate to gift it to someone else. It is said that doing this can affect the auspicious energy of the house.

Why is it advisable to avoid gifting a money plant?

Money plant is considered a symbol of wealth, progress and prosperity. This is the reason why it is included among the most popular indoor plants in India. This plant is easily seen in most of the homes and offices. But there is a special belief regarding this in Vastu Shastra.

It is said that money plant is associated with financial progress and positive energy of the house. Many people believe that if this plant is gifted to someone else, then the prosperity and good fortune of the house can also go with it. However, this is a belief based entirely on religious and Vaastu beliefs, for which there is no scientific evidence.

Experts believe that if you want to gift a plant to someone, then options like Tulsi, Bamboo (Lucky Bamboo), Areca Palm or Snake Plant are considered better. These plants are not only beautiful to look at, but also give the message of positivity and greenery.

Therefore, next time before gifting a plant to someone, understand its Vaastu beliefs and symbolic importance. The right plant can not only make a nice gift, but also convey the message of positivity and good luck in relationships.
