Feng Shui uses certain objects called cures to increase the flow of positive energy called chi in your home. Bamboos are one of the most popular Feng Shui cures, but they are only effective when placed properly in the home and cared for well. Here are instructions for using Lucky Bamboo in your home.

Choose the correct number of bamboo stalks:

• Two bamboo stalks represent a couple, so they bring luck in love
• Three stalks bring happiness, wealth, and longevity
• Six stalks will bring luck and prosperity
• Seven stalks of bamboo can bring good health
• Eight stalks of bamboo symbolize growth
• Ten stalks represent completeness and perfection

Bamboos have a special meaning–they are symbolic for climbing such as seeking a promotion at work.
