Green Trees in Vastu Shastra for Removing Bad Energy

The Indian science of home architecture or Vastu Shastra considers green trees and plants to be very effective in repulsing bad and malefic vibrations from entering and circulating inside the house and creating a negative atmosphere. Green trees are specially recommended as a very simple and easy to practise remedy for laypersons who do not wish, do not have the time or cannot afford to perform other Vastu Dosha removal remedies.

Green trees are common in both Vastu Shastra and Feng Shui, the Chinese Science of maintaining harmony and balance.  Vastu Shastra recommends that Cactus plants and plants emitting Milky Sap should as far as possible not be kept in the home.  Artificial Green Plants, which are pleasant and pleasing to the eye, can also, be placed inside the house instead of fresh plants.  However, Feng Shui has some very specific dos and don’ts, regarding the use of plants and trees inside a dwelling, which have already been described in some earlier articles. One such article can be seen here- Bonsai and Cactus in Feng Shui.

It has also been observed that there are harmful streams full of bad and negative energy, which pass beneath the surface and affect the atmosphere above the surface, this may affect the people living above these harmful energy streams by adversely affecting their health and well being. Green trees help in repulsing this dull and malefic energy emitting from beneath the surface.
