The nipa palm is appreciated in Feng Shui for its balance of Yin (soft, feminine energy) and Yang (hard, masculine energy). This palm exudes energy of growth and vitality which can create harmony when placed in North-facing direction. The North direction, according to Feng Shui, governs career and life path— areas where the growth symbolism of nipa palm can be beneficial. This, however, is still subject to personal Feng Shui adjustments.
