Lucky Bamboo is one of the most popular feng shui cures. In traditional feng shui, the lucky bamboo is used to attract health, happiness, love and abundance. The feng shui lucky bamboo is widely used in both home and office feng shui decor solutions.


Use of Feng Shui Lucky Bamboo as a Feng Shui Cure:

Lucky Bamboo is one of the most popular feng shui cures. You can see feng shui lucky bamboo in most floral shops nowadays. However, the feng shui lucky bamboo is one of the most neglected feng shui cures, too!

I have seen countless and countless of feng shui "lucky" bamboo that are struggling for life, have a poor neglected look, and the only luck in them is the "lucky to be alive" factor!

  • Wood - the Bamboo itself
  • Earth - the Rocks the Bamboo grows in
  • Water - the Water the Bamboo grows with
  • Fire - most pots usually have a red ribbon tied to them
  • Metal - the glass pots belong to the feng shui Metal element. If the Feng Shui Lucky Bamboo is planted in a pot other than glass, such as clay or ceramics, it will usually have either a metal coin, or a metal figurine with it.
Usually you will buy (or make) this feng shui cure with a specific number of bamboo stalks, most popular ones being:
