Opinions about these plants are very mixed. Some collect large collections of cacti (such people are called cactusites), others categorically do not advise breeding them, citing the fact that with them all sorts of troubles and misfortunes will come to the house. How should one treat these representatives of the flora, the family of which includes many subfamilies, subspecies, and so on, differing in size, shape, degree of leaf development (or their complete absence)?
There are many beliefs associated with cacti. If you list them all, you will get not just an article, but a full-fledged book. Believe it or not is everyone’s business, but we will try to generalize useful information for those who are interested in whether cacti have a good or bad effect on humans.
One thing is certain - cacti have a strong influence on the energy flows in the house. Science has proven that these seemingly inconspicuous plants (although this judgment about beauty is quite controversial) closely interact with subtle energies. Experts in esotericism completely agree with this. Therefore, if we summarize everything that is known about cacti, we can say that they are capable of both accumulating and releasing negative (dark, bad) energy into the surrounding space.
- Cacti (in pots) placed on the windowsill will trap negative energy coming from outside. That is, to play the role of a kind of energy protection. If the house is located near a road, a fork, or a source of strong EMF (for example, an antenna), then you should pay attention to this particular plant.
- Some household appliances are also characterized by increased electromagnetic background. If the microwave oven does not turn on often, then the computer is quite long time is in working mode. It is also good to place a cactus near it. It will definitely absorb some of the negativity, thereby minimizing its impact on a person.
Restrictions
There are few of them, but they should be taken into account.
- You should not place pots with cacti in, especially in children's rooms. Of course, a lot depends on the psychotype of the individual, but in most cases the influence of this plant is expressed in restless (or even intermittent) sleep and even insomnia. If such a trend is observed, then it is better favorite plant move to another room.
- In houses where it is unhealthy psychological atmosphere, constant scandals between family members, cacti are definitely not worth keeping. They accumulate all the negativity coming from people, and then gradually begin to give it back. The household will already forget everything, make peace, and then there will be a surge of a new portion of negative energy. This clearly will not contribute to improving the moral situation. Moreover, it can provoke an “unplanned” quarrel if one of the household members is a person with an unstable psyche.
Conclusion
When assessing whether it is good or bad to keep cacti in your home, you need to take into account where it is more appropriate to place them, in what quantity and the characteristics of the house itself. Or rather, the relationship between family members.
As for believing/not believing various beliefs, it has already been said. But we should not forget that the fate of any of us is in our own hands, and many attribute personal failures not to their own laziness or character traits (which contribute to one or another miscalculation in life), but to these wonderful and beautiful in their own way plants.
Nowadays, when computers have flooded the whole country, probably only a baby does not know that it is necessary to place a cactus next to the monitor. Science has proven that this plant absorbs all the bad energy that the computer emits. Cacti are not our plants, but their properties are Lately are very widely used in our country. And all because today there are computers in almost every family. It turns out that there are also many signs associated with these thorny plants.
In the house
Cactus in the house - husband out. Complete! Signs about cacti are still very young, and often not verified. Basically, this sign is believed by those who either have bad relationships in the family, or whose husband goes on the side and at the same time creates the appearance good relations with my wife. But these flowers have nothing to do with this situation. Whether there is such a thing or not is not important. Without a doubt, they help get rid of excess radioactive radiation. What does your husband have to do with it? This is not radiation, but a loved one.
A cactus in the house is a prickly character for the owner. Despite the fact that these plants appeared in our country relatively recently, this sign has already been confirmed among the people. In fact, it has been noticed that if a person collects these exotic plants, then over time he becomes as prickly as his favorites. He is no longer as hospitable as he was before, he does not like noisy companies, and if something does not happen the way he wants, then this person simply turns green with anger. Some will say that this is nonsense, while others will fully confirm this sign. It just seems to me that a person is who he is, and plants have nothing to do with it. Many people love roses and grow them on their personal plots, but at the same time they remain kind and hospitable, although their favorite plants also have thorns.
Cacti planted on both sides of front door, will protect the house from evil. From a magical point of view, these plants can really protect the house thanks to their needles. But where have you seen that in our climate cacti can survive Russian? There are no frosts in Mexico, and there is no snow for months. But it was from there that these people came to us amazing plants. Besides, we've already gotten here decorative varieties, and not those that grow there on their own and wherever they want. Therefore, if this sign works, it’s not for us.
Cacti grow well where there is a lot of negative energy. These plants are really very sensitive to negativity. If there are scandals in the house, or very often, then all the negative energy is absorbed by these prickly creatures of nature, like a sponge. It has been noticed that in such places they grow faster and sit in flower pots big, beautiful and thick. They say that many of the cacti even bloom more often than they should, if there is an almost military situation around them. Whether this is true or not, who knows, but there are such observations.
As a gift
A cactus as a gift - no family in sight. Complete nonsense. If a girl loves this plant, and a young man who knows about her hobby gives her such a plant, then this is a normal sign of attention. Such a gift cannot destroy a strong and serious relationship. And if this suddenly happened, it means nothing serious happened. Well, these young people would create a family, but since there are no real feelings, then sooner or later this family would fall apart. So it’s not a matter of acceptance, but of relationships between people and the sincerity of feelings.
If cacti don't grow
If a person has too much gentle character, then cacti will not grow. Indeed, these thorny plants do not grow well in every owner. You can’t just want to work on cacti and expect them to grow thick, beautiful, and fruitful. It all depends on the compatibility of the characters. It happens that for one person these plants grow by leaps and bounds, for another they simply rot and that’s it. And the third one sits beautifully, but in a few years it won’t grow even a centimeter. How to understand this behavior of this exotic plant? They feed strong emotions, not just strong, but an overabundance of emotions. If there are scandals in the family every day, then the cactus will feed on this energy. Like in a movie theater, he will sit with popcorn, watch you and grow, grow, and grow. When it is quiet and calm, this plant does not receive that energy charge that would help it develop well. Who planted it is also of great importance. If the husband likes to get wild, and a calm wife planted the plant, then the cactus will grow quietly and calmly. If, on the contrary, the plant will feed on scandals to the fullest.
All living things that surround us are always very interesting. Signs about cacti appeared in our lives not so long ago, but there are still ongoing disputes around them. Of course, these plants, like many other representatives flora, can have a significant impact on our lives. But before endowing them with mystical properties, it is best to carefully observe how life develops among exotic lovers, and then draw conclusions.
Even the fans indoor plants people don't always decide to have a cactus. After all, the “green thorn” has a very controversial reputation. Many of those who think it's cute still prefer to keep this miracle at work rather than on their windowsill. So what can happen if cacti appear in the house? Is it good or bad? Let's look for the answer in signs.
For better or worse: do you need a cactus at home?
The cactus family is very numerous. It contains both fluffy balls with soft spines and slender beauties with sharp, burning spines. That’s why breeding them is so exciting and interesting. Starting with one plant, you will soon fill all the window sills, shelves and cabinets with pots. But can this hobby radically affect your life?

There are many different rumors about cacti. Some consider them aggressors, others - defenders, others blame them for all their failures, and others simply laugh at such prejudices. But there are really a lot of warnings, so it is better for a suspicious person to choose a more “peaceful” plant. But let's figure it out.
Spiny talisman: magical abilities
Any plant affects the aura of the house - this is undeniable. But how does a cactus behave in this sense? It turns out that, despite the thorns, he is not so “mean”, he has a lot of positive properties. If you absolutely want to decorate your home with a prickly green friend, then know that it can benefit your home. After all, a tropical wonder is capable of such “good deeds”:
- absorbs negativity and protects the inhabitants of the house from the evil eye and damage. Esotericists claim that a cactus placed opposite the front door will not allow dark forces into the house. And any person who comes to the house with bad intentions will immediately forget about the purpose of his visit. The cactus will take away negative energy and neutralize it - so you will be completely safe. With this plant, no envious people or ill-wishers are afraid of you;
- protects the house from burglars. People who have a whole greenhouse of cacti at home claim that all attempts by thieves to profit from their goods invariably failed;
- keeps young people from making ill-considered decisions (for example, from early marriage). It is believed that if there is a teenager in the family, then it is better to put this plant in his room. This will distract him from “unnecessary” thoughts (quitting his studies and getting married), that is, it will help young man get an education, find a job - as they say, get on your feet. After such plans are implemented, the cactus must be urgently removed from the house so that the child can arrange his personal life;
- protects against electromagnetic radiation. This is the most common sign that many people believe in. That's why the prickly beauty can often be seen next to computers and other electrical appliances. They are placed in offices where there are a lot of gadgets, and housewives give them a place next to microwaves. And the cacti don’t mind at all, they feel great in such company;
- a blooming cactus portends an imminent pregnancy or wedding. Not everyone gets to see a cactus bloom. This happens extremely rarely, so it always becomes a real event. Many people claim that this always works. As soon as a flower appears on a cactus (usually it is very beautiful, although it does not smell very pleasant), soon some significant event occurs in the family.
As you can see, having a cactus at home is not so bad! Especially if you are an optimist and trust good signs more than bad ones.
Why can't you keep such a green pet at home?
To give an objective answer to the question of whether cacti in the house are good or bad, we must also talk about what harm this flower can cause. And there is something to think about! It is not for nothing that many are afraid of having such a “roommate”. After all, popular rumor attributes the following negative properties to it:
- This is a vampire who feeds on the energy of people. It has the worst effect on emotional people who suffer from mood swings and are prone to depression. Next to the cactus, they feel constant physical and psychological discomfort. In the end, this can lead to health problems, personal failures, and cause troubles at work;
- cactus provokes quarrels and family scandals. Many have noticed that this plant grows best (and even becomes covered with flowers) in homes where the moral situation is difficult: spouses are constantly sorting things out, children are in conflict with their parents. And even if everything in the family was in order in perfect order, then with the advent of the cactus the situation changes for the worse. Moreover, he is so insidious that he will ruin the relationship not only between husband and wife, but will even quarrel with all relatives;
- Homewrecker cactus. He will not want to share his mistress with anyone else, so he will prevent the girl from getting married, and married woman will make you lonely. Will push the husband to leave his family and go to his mistress;
- will make your husband an alcoholic. This is a very popular opinion, although there is not much evidence. Not every family where there is a heavy drinker has a cactus on the windowsill;
- the worst gift ever. According to experts on omens, this plant should never be accepted as a gift just like that: you should definitely pay at least a tiny amount for it. Otherwise, he will only cause trouble: you can remain an old maid, lose family happiness and so on.
Thus, if you focus only on signs, then you will not be able to draw an unambiguous conclusion about the usefulness or harmfulness of a cactus for your home. Some endow him with positive abilities, while others give him negative ones. It is not so difficult to guess why there are so many speculations surrounding this exotic plant.

Cactus from computer radiation: video

According to ancient legends, cacti protect the house from evil spirits, do not allow guests into the house if they treat the hosts poorly, and protect family members from the evil eye and damage.
It is believed that the cactus should be placed in unfavorable places in the apartment so that it actively fights bad energy. You should not place a thorny plant in the nursery or bedroom - since during sleep the cactus is able to give off its energy received during the day, and this, in turn, will not necessarily be positive.
