What does pomegranate mean in Feng Shui?

The pomegranate represents immortality, plurality in unity, eternal fertility, fertility and abundance. In Buddhism, it is one of the three blessed fruits along with citrus and peach. In China, it symbolizes abundance, fertility, numerous and virtuous offspring, and a happy future. In Christianity, the pomegranate is a symbol of eternal life, spiritual fertility, the church, and its seeds symbolize its many members. In the Greco-Roman tradition it means spring, rejuvenation, immortality, fertility and is the emblem of Hera-Juno, Ceres and Persephone, symbolizing the periodic return of spring and fertility to the earth. Pomegranate is a plant grown from the blood of Dionysus. In Jewish tradition, it means rebirth, fertility. Pomegranates with bells on the robes of clergy symbolize thunder and lightning that bring fertility.

This delicious exotic berry has not only healing, but also magical properties. It can bring success to almost all areas of human life. It’s not for nothing that pomegranate is called a symbol of good luck. Pomegranate seeds symbolize numerous offspring. In the old days, in Turkey there was a ritual according to which on the wedding day the bride had to break a pomegranate against the wall. By how many grains flew from the fruit they judged the number of children the newly married couple had. If you dream of children, place the magic berry in the Children’s sector – in the western part of the apartment or in the center of the right side of the room. The pomegranate should be burst and open. It is important that its ruby ​​grains are visible. You can also use individual slices. For families who already have children, placing the talisman fruit in this sector will help attract good luck to the children and give them a chance to achieve prosperity and success in the future. Jewelry in the shape of a garnet is recommended to be worn by a woman who will soon become a mother. There is a belief that if a couple eats one pomegranate between them on New Year’s Eve, then next year they will be able to conceive a male heir.

Love and family

In Ancient Greece, pomegranate was considered a guarantee of marital fidelity and personified the strength of marriage bonds. The Greeks depicted the goddess Hera, wife of Zeus and patroness of marriage, protecting women during childbirth, with a pomegranate in her hand. To live happily ever after with your loved one, place the magic berry in the Family sector – in the eastern part of the house or in the middle of the left side of the room. This sector is also responsible for the health of all family members, and the presence of pomegranate there will positively affect the well-being of all household members and even give them longevity. If you want harmony and love to reign in your home, then take a pomegranate peel, dry it and grind it by hand into a fine powder, which you can sprinkle little by little in all corners of the house and near the threshold. Those who want to quickly meet the love of their life and walk down the aisle can also take advantage of the magical properties of pomegranate. For such purposes, it is better to place it in the Love sector, which is located in the southwestern part of the home or in the far right corner of the room.

Finance and career

In China, pomegranate is considered a symbol of abundance, so it is recommended to keep this fruit in the Wealth sector (the southeastern zone of the house or the left corner of the room farthest from the door). In this case, the miracle fruit will activate monetary energy and thereby ensure an increase in income. So stock up on pomegranates and get ready for a luxurious, royal life! By the way, in the East, pomegranate is called the “king of all fruits.” Most likely, this is due to the presence of a “corolla on the crown” – the original shape of the sepals, reminiscent of a crown. Pomegranate also has a beneficial effect on professional activities. A cluster of seeds under a hard skin is considered as an image of people united by a common goal or cause. For this reason, it is useful for people working in a large team or in a branch of a large company to store pomegranates in the Career sector – in the northern part of the apartment or, if viewed from the front door, near the wall closest to us in the room. In addition, a garnet in this zone will help in finding a good job.

Choosing a mascot

A painting of a pomegranate, wooden, porcelain, crystal and natural fruits are suitable as a talisman. If you have chosen a natural garnet, then it should be without dents or damage, shiny, large, with a smooth and even surface, and weighty. If you want to use it to attract fertility energy, then break the fruit with your own hands. It is advisable to place both the natural fruit and the figurine not just on interior items, but place it on a small plate, saucer or vase. A glass, crystal, wicker or clay container is suitable. The main thing is not to use plastic, which, from the point of view of household magic, is considered a non-living material. As for the quantity, it is better to let it be one fruit or three. The number three in numerology symbolizes growth, cheerfulness, creativity and talent.
