The Plant That Calls Good Energy


The pothos, old and faithful. It withstands neglect, brightens corners, and according to feng shui, enhances prosperity. I see it in homes, offices, and clinics. It grows with almost nothing and brings calm. Yes, that heart-shaped leaf climber that seems to say: here you breathe better 🌿

Fun fact: pothos (Epipremnum aureum) is also known as “devil’s ivy” because it’s very hard to kill and stays green even with little light. And according to classic air quality studies, it helps reduce volatile compounds in the environment. Less tension, more focus. I notice it in sessions: when I include plants, anxious tones drop and attention rises.

As an astrologer, I love its symbolism. Heart-shaped leaves, stems that expand. In energetic language, continuity and expansion. Prosperity that moves, not stagnates ✨


Why Pothos Favors Your Harmony


- In feng shui it softens “sharp corners” and corrects cutting energies. I recommend placing it near doors and windows to encourage flow.

- In the Bagua map, the Southeast sector is associated with wealth. A healthy, growing pothos there acts as a daily reminder: I take care of what I want to see grow.

- In environmental psychology, green reduces heart rate and stress. I suggest patients a “green ritual” of 3 minutes: look at the plant, touch the soil, breathe. It works.

- In my motivational talks, I talk about the “new leaf theory”: each sprout is evidence of progress. A visible micro-achievement. People catch that rhythm.

Real anecdote: a patient with work anxiety adopted a pothos in a jar. She put it on her desk and every Monday measured roots. After six weeks she not only had strong roots; she had a healthy routine. And yes, the promotion came. Coincidence or cause? I’ll let you think about it 😉


Easy Care That Adds Energy


- Light: lots of indirect brightness. Avoid direct sun that burns. If it loses variegation, it needs more light.

- Watering: 1 to 2 times per week in heat. Stick a finger in: if the first 3 cm are dry, water. Less in winter.

- Temperature: ideal between 18 and 30 °C (64-86 °F). Below 10 °C (50 °F) it complains.

- Humidity: medium. Mist on dry days or clean leaves with a damp cloth so it breathes better.

- Substrate: light and airy. Mix with perlite or bark. Fertilize in spring-summer every 30-40 days, mild dose.

- Pests: if you see mealybugs or red spider mites, warm shower and potassium soap. Consistency and care.

- Safety: toxic to pets if chewed. Keep out of their reach.

- Style: hanging looks beautiful. With a moss pole, leaves grow bigger and more marked.

- Varieties to tempt you: Golden, Jade, Marble Queen, Neon. The “satin” is a cousin (Scindapsus), equally lovely.

Curiosity: pothos can live for years in water. Change the water weekly and add a drop of hydroponic fertilizer to nourish it. Simple and magical 💧


How to Have a Pothos in a Can (yes, recycling brings luck)


- Choose a clean can. Sand the edge so it doesn’t cut.

- Make a small drainage hole at the base.

- Place a layer of small stones or broken ceramics.

- Add light substrate. Plant a cutting with at least one node (that’s where roots come out).

- Water gently, don’t soak. Place in bright indirect light.

- Pro tip: line the inside of the can with plastic or non-toxic varnish to prevent rust.

Prefer water? Transparent jar, one node submerged, change water every 7 days. You can add a small piece of activated charcoal to keep it clear.

Multiply without drama:

- Cut a stem just below a node.

- Put it in water. Roots appear in 2-3 weeks.

- Transplant to substrate or keep in water and feed occasionally.

- Prune tips to make it bushy. Gifting cuttings activates the abundance cycle, I tell you from experience.

Where to place it to boost its energy:

- Entrance, but without blocking passage. It welcomes and softens.

- Kitchen or living room, gathering spaces.

- Southeast of the house or room if you follow Bagua.

- Bathroom with good light, ideal to move what stagnates.

- Desk, left side facing forward, area of knowledge and wealth. Add a short affirmation: “I grow, my project grows too.”

A little countryside story: at a workshop, an attendee brought her pothos in a yogurt cup. I said: “your prosperity has already taken root.” Laughter. Two months later she wrote me: “I went from cup to pot and from unstable freelance to fixed contracts.” I’m not a fairy godmother. Neither is the pothos. But intention with action makes magic 😉

Ready to invite more green and good vibes into your life? Start today with a cutting. Watch it stretch out. And ask yourself: where do I want my own “branch” to grow this week? 💚🪴🌟
