What are some plants that repel bad energy?

Ghost month has come upon us once again. For those who may not know, this is a Chinese festival in August. The Chinese believe that the Gates of Hell open on the first day of the seventh lunar month. It’s the time when ghosts are free to roam the earth.
The Chinese also believe that this month brings about bad luck. Bloody incidents and accidents can occur. They don’t also advise the elderly and kids to wander the streets at night.
To ward off bad luck, you can set up plants that repel bad energy around the house. Many think that they’re just used for aesthetics, but plants actually possess protective energy.
Here’s a list of plants that you can buy from Unbeleafable PH to help you get through ghost month. These plants will not only spruce up your living space but also imbue positive and protective energy around your home!
Cactus
They say cacti and succulents fight off your feelings of gloominess and anxiety. During ghost month, keep this around to absorb the bad energy from people in your life with ill intentions.
Cactus is the perfect tabletop plant for any area of your home. It’s easily distinguished from other succulents because of the spine and bristles. You can get one for your home for only P199!
The cactus thrives in bright indirect sunlight. So, set it near your window or a shaded outdoor area. You’ll only need to water it every 7 – 10 days, depending on if the soil has already dried. Remember to drain excess water from the pot since they’re accustomed to dry weather conditions.
Snake Plant

The Snake Plant represents growth because of the upward shape and growth of its leaves. Its leaves look like swords that cut off any form of negative energy. Place this plant in areas of your home where you want to boost your energy.
This plant can grow up to 40 inches tall, the tallest among other snake plant varieties. Aside from its height, it will stand out with its striking yellow edges and sword-shaped leaves.
This is a low-maintenance plant, perfect for new plant parents. It thrives best in bright indirect sunlight. Placing it under direct sunlight for too long can scorch its leaves. You’ll only need to water this once a week as long as you check if the excess water is drained. Get this plant for only P299 – P699.
Aloe Vera
Aside from its medicinal properties, Aloe Vera attracts prosperity and positive energy. It also contains healing properties. People put this plant in the home of a sick person to be able to cleanse the home from disease, pain, and negative energy.
Aloe Vera is a stemless plant with thick, green, and fleshy leaves that can grow up to 11 inches high. It’s also a medicinal plant that’s used in creams, gels, and ointments.
This is a stemless plant that loves water. So, you’ll need to water directly into its soil until it drains. You can set it anywhere in your house since it can adapt from full to bright indirect sunlight. Buy it on Unbeleafable for only P179.00 – P599.00!
Calathea Pinstripe
Also known as the Prayer Plant, the Calathea Pinstripe symbolizes devotion and focus. Keep this around your home to help in keeping your focus on daily tasks instead of the things that may come during ghost month.
Calathea Pinstripe has dark green leaves with pink stripes. It’s known as the prayer plant because its leaves rise up at night as if they were trying to touch the sky. Its stems are thin compared to other plants, but it can grow up to 3ft tall.
Keep this plant in indirect bright sunlight for optimum growth. Its colors may be lost when exposed to direct sunlight. You’ll need to water it two to three times a week or when the top 2 to 3 inches of soil have dried out. You can buy this plant for only P299 – P799!
Rosemary

The rosemary herb is a purifying plant that attracts happiness, love, and good vibes. It contains essential oils to help stimulate activity in the brain. So, you can expect it to improve your memory, alleviate your anxiety, and help with fatigue.
Rosemary is a popular herb with needle-like leaves. Have this fragrant herb around your home since its leaves can also be used for cooking.
This herb needs lots of sunshine, so it’s best to place it outdoors. You’ll only need to water it once or twice a day since it likes its soil to be completely dried out. Purchase it for only P199.00 on Unbeleafable PH.
