Aloe Vera against Feng Shui?

Feng Shui disapproves of pointed items, this appears to rule out Cactii and Aloe Vera Plants.

Which is kind of strange when Aloe Vera is so full of natural elements and is revered by ancient cultures as the Medicine Plant and is reputed to bring Good Luck

However they do come in useful as a barrier against other harmful elements see below:-

Take care to remedy the view of threatening elements from the window with Windchimes or plants. Cactus and Bamboo are plants grown in very harsh conditions and symbolise good fortune, thus making them ideal for placement in the home office, study or wealth area. Any sharp leaved plants are good Feng Shui in this area as they are believed to deter harmful influences.

Aloe Vera Juice as Mouthwash

If you are drinking a teaspoon of Aloe Vera Juice (as sold commercially) three times a day, why not rinse it through your teeth for a minute or two as a mouthwash before drinking it. Remember it's not so much your teeth that you have to protect as your GUMS.

I have used Aloe Vera Toothpaste before but not long enough to know if was effective, must get some more!

Aloe Vera Cures my Itchy Back!

I'm always looking for opportunities to test Aloe Vera, then suddenly I get one of my own! My upper back skin has always been dry, and like a horse I rub up against any nearby post. Well last week it was itchier than usual and when I felt my back it was like a ploughed field. My wife wanted me to go to the doctors, but I prefered to trust Aloe Vera. I cut a one inch section of a thick Aloe Vera Leaf , removed the prickles, opened it up and rubbed the goo onto my back. I've repeated this daily and my skin is now smooth with only the slightest of itching where I couldn't reach.

What are you waiting for, go and by buy some large Aloe Vera plants for your home and family!
