To the plants have multiple functions: in addition to bringing shade, fresh air and making the house more beautiful, some species have important properties for eliminate negative energies from the house. So says Wiccan priest Brendan Orin of astrocenter. He grew up in the middle of nature in the interior of São Paulo, where he learned, in practice, about respect and direct coexistence with both the crop and the trees and wild herbs.

To take full advantage of the benefits of different species, you need to have a routine of attention and care with them, including water, fertilizer and sunlight when needed. “Wicca, which is my religion, has its Gods like nature itself and understands that everything that is part of it is sacred. Therefore, you need to take care of your plants: they need to like you to help you. It’s a trade-off!” says Brendan.
He indicates 7 plants to eliminate negative energy from the house and bring joy:
1. Rosemary
“In addition to bringing a delicious perfume, it has healing and antiseptic properties who can help through teas, poultices, baths and foot baths. O rosemary promotes health and joy and helps in concentration, being excellent for study and work environments. Tip: leave him by the window, because he loves sunlight!”
2. Pepper tree
“The pepper plant is excellent, but it must be placed outside of doors and windows. It absorbs negative energies, so when left indoors, it can end up charging the environment.”
3. Mint
“Another herb that everyone should have at home is mint. Its magical properties confer joy, lightness and fun, leaving any environment friendly and fun”. Putting a mint foot in the garden or vegetable garden from your home, you can still use the leaves to make sauces, hot or cold tea and season salads.
4. With me-nobody-can
“Excellent for ward off envybeing indicated for environments such as entrance hall, toilet and other spaces where people don’t stay for long”. It is worth remembering that you need to be careful when handling this plant, because its sap can cause itching. It should also be kept out of reach of pets and children.
5. Wildflowers
“Chrysanthemum and daisy are great energy transmuters, filling the house with light, positive energy and courage. My suggestion is to have them planted in planters and vases that can be left in the dining room or in the children’s room, but that can be moved frequently to external areas.”
6. Coffee
“Excellent for bringing energy during the day. Leave it in the kitchen or dining room, as long as the environment is well lit.”
7. Bamboo
“Excellent plant to stop the harmfulness brought by the toilet water. Can be placed in vases with crystals and other creeping plants. As it needs indirect light, it usually adapts well to this environment, leaving a stripped climate and retaining that energy of dirty running water, which tends to undermine the prosperity and health of the house.”
Final tip: if you like plants with thorns, like cacti, Brendan suggests leaving them outside or in places near the door.
