Fortune and abundance come to those who believe in them. This is especially true in India whose multilayered culture is imbued with expressive rituals and traditionsand food is not spared.

Food and symbolism play an important role not just in important celebrations, but also in day-to-day lives. In a new report tackling how superstition and religion affect daily life in India, analysts at SevenJackpots highlighted interesting rituals and traditions that influence individuals who like to pursue luck and prosperity.

Fresh fruits are not just altar gifts for the gods; theyre also considered a vehicle of positive energy. When placed on the dining table, fruits are said to attract positive energy and draw abundance into the home. Peaches are among the popular fruits for wealth and prosperity as it symbolizes immortality according to Chinese philosophy; this fruit is also associated with money and abundance, as well as good health and long life.

Red apples are popular in the north for attracting prosperity, while the south draws positive energy from pineapples and oranges for wealth and abundance. Pomegranates are also auspicious, especially for those seeking fertility.

Now, its worth noting that although traditions and customs are often correlated to attracting a lucky streak especially among gamblers and casual entertainment games players, these rituals might not have a direct impact when playing ones favorite online roulette games. That said, the study still highlights the importance of how the active and proper pursuit of these customs ultimately lead to a positive mindset.

Devotion and superstition have withstood social evolution, digitization, and economic developments. They are not in conflict with education or modern lifestyles and are just as popular across Bharat as they are among desi communities living abroad, SevenJackpots industry researchers have found.

Attracting luck and prosperity goes beyond fruits, plants are very much involved too. The Vastu Shastra concept calls for integrating architecture with nature to bring abundance.

To create a Vastu-perfect home, consider adding the Money Tree (botanical name: Pachira aquatica) which is said to stimulate the flow of wealth in the house. Notice the trees five leaves in each steman auspicious number in feng shui.

Lotus (botanical name: Nelumbo nucifera) is also pious as the Goddess of Wealth Lakshmi sits atop of it. You may also want to keep basil plants (Ocimum tenuiflorum) at the porch of your home facing the north or east area for good health and wealth.

Theres also the lucky bamboo (Dracaena sanderiana), which is seen to bring abundance to its owner with its different number of stalks representing a unique blessing by feng shui.

The rubber plant (Ficus elastica) is also an auspicious plant that embodies prosperity and wealth, while the snake plant (Chlorophytum comosum) is known for its slender leaves and for inviting good fortune.

Not just aesthetically pleasing, these plants also purify the air which is a key component in attracting prosperity and positive vibes to a home.
