Does growing jasmine at home necessarily attract yin influences?

Jasmine at home does not by itself establish that yin influences will be attracted. I have said some plants are considered more yin energetically within faith, but actual people and surroundings matter. This cannot become a prohibition every household must follow.

Ming Fen shared that her mother planted a large area of jasmine in their new garden, while her brother often showed concerning reactions at night. A teacher linked it to the flowers, which the family later removed while also inviting deities to guard the home. Conditions improved afterwards. This was her family’s experience, but both flowers and divine arrangements changed. I would not conclude from that sequence alone that jasmine necessarily caused it.

I said then that the matter was probably not as simple as jasmine attracting yin. I wondered whether the individual had a particular connection: if flowers alone caused it, why did not every family member feel the same? This cautions against settling the cause too quickly, not claims I had verified her brother’s past life or karma.
