About Me

Apple trees are cultivated worldwide and are the most widely grown species in the genus Malus. The tree originated in Central Asia, where its wild ancestor, Malus sieversii, is still found today. Apples have been grown for thousands of years in Asia and Europe and were brought to North America by European colonists.

Symbolism

In ancient mythology, the Apple is one of the most sacred trees and symbolizes good health and future happiness. It is also appropriate to wish for the safety of someone.  

Feng Shui

When apples are referred to in Feng Shui, they are usually mentioned in the form of apple blossoms which are very popular Feng Shui flowers. They are also said to have plentiful water energy other than the natural wood energy.

Feng Shui apple placement in the house is often at the dining table, coffee table, or kitchen countertop. Homeowners who have them on display for feng shui reasons are usually for the enhancement of peace and harmony between members of the household.

The symbolism behind this is that negative energy that causes quarrels between residents would be alleviated by the presence of the fruit that represents peace.

Since ancient times it has also been known as the 'Tree of Love. It is a complex symbol, with a variety of meanings and incorporated in a variety of contexts. It can mean love, knowledge, wisdom, joy, death, and/or luxury.
