The best and useful Charm for your home
Most houseplants are prized for their lovely flowers, but oxalis, also known as oxalis, is one of those famous for its foliage.
It can be juicy green or dark noble purple. Against this background, small white flowers bloom, not distracting attention from the leaves, but emphasizing their showiness.
I got my first pot of sour lily as a birthday present and although I'm not superstitious, I must admit that the next year was amazingly successful.
Maybe it's not for nothing that they say that oxalis is a talisman and a magnet for everything positive? Probably, the origin of the beliefs about it is associated with the shape of the leaves - they resemble the rarest three-leaf clover.
In the Middle Ages, oxalis greens were used for food - to prevent scurvy, colds and even plague.
Today, scientists have denied its unique bactericidal properties, but traditional medicine stubbornly refers it to plants capable of purifying the air from pathogenic microorganisms and harmful impurities of the urban atmosphere. This is partly true - the plant produces phytoncides.
There are beliefs affecting the location of the acid in the house:
• on the windowsill in the living room - drives away envious people from the house;
· On the kitchen window - endows with cooking talent;
· On the balcony - does not let negative energy into the house.
Oxalis charges a person with a good mood, protects against quarrels and depressive conditions.
Kislitsa, donated for housewarming, symbolizes the wish for a comfortable life, for a wedding - the early birth of the first child, for the New Year - the fulfillment of a cherished desire.
They say that a lonely person should have a purple sour wine in order to get rid of the "celibacy crown" and quickly meet his soul mate. Moreover, it is advisable not to buy a ready-made flower, but to plant and grow it with your own hands.
This "clover" has a powerful corrective energy - in the same room with it, the plants known as "muzhegons" are deprived of their negative abilities.
Kislitsa, brought from the city to the dacha, protects suburban estates from thieves, and if you put him in a flower garden - then all its other inhabitants will delight with a magnificent view and will not be attacked pests.
Although, of course, even believing in such superstition, one should not neglect the basic rules of caring for flora.
