The Colors Of Feng Shui - Part 1.
Black
Black is the color of mystery. It also provides protection. It symbolizes nighttime when it gets dark, and it also represents an empty space. Even with that, it provides intensity to any area. If it is used often, it can translate into a heavy atmosphere. Black is also used to provide strength.
This color can be used in the East, North and Southeast. It should not be used in the South. It can be used in a child's bedroom, but not a lot. It can also be used in the common areas of your home.
If you're trying to attract career opportunities, it can be used in the North area of anyone's space. Black can be combined with white to be used on furniture.
Brown
The color brown is used in the East, Southeast and the South. The energy from this color provides plenty of nourishment. It can be associated with different foods and drinks, such as chocolate and coffee.
Brown can also be used for the common areas of your home. You shouldn't use much of the color Brown for a child's bedroom or the Southwest area. If there is too much of the color in an area, it may cause people not to take a step forward.
Green
This color represents revival and a fresh start. Green provides nourishment and keeps peace in your life. When incorporated with Feng Shui, you should use different versions of green, instead of just one.
You can use plants that have fresh foliage. Green is also known to provide healing. It can be used more so in the South, East and Southeast areas.
There are different versions of this color that can be used in Feng Shui.
Red
When the colors for Feng Shui are used in the right format, your environment will be the recipient of good Feng Shui energy. The color red contributes to the Fire Element to provide energy.
Fire can be considered as a creative aspect and a destructive aspect. Fire is a symbol for sun and life and energy that comes from it. With this Element in your home, you can experience happiness and a desire to be sexually fulfilled.
Red also represents passion and celebration. The Chinese use the color red for happiness and luck. In India, the color red is use for marriage and weddings, and in the West, the color red stands for romance and courage.
When people decorate, the color red is used for richness. Careful consideration has to be implemented not to use too much red. Otherwise, it can provoke anger and excessive stimulation.
With Feng Shui, red can be used in children's bedrooms with caution. It can also be used in the common areas of the home, such as the dining and living rooms and the kitchen area.
In the East, Southeast, West and Northwest areas of your home, you can use the color red, but you are limited to how much you should use. Red is a perfect candidate to use in the South.
Orange
Orange has been nicknamed the "social" color. Orange is responsible for providing the energy from Feng Shui to engage in spirited conversations and to have good feelings in your home. When the winter season approaches, it can be a reminder of the summer season. Log fires also come into play with the color of orange.
Just like red represents fire, so does orange. It is not a good color for the areas of the West and Northwest. In addition to that, this color should not be seen in the East and Southeast. These areas are controlled by other elements of Feng Shui.
Orange can be used for the common areas, such as the living and dining rooms, kitchen, and anywhere else where the environment can have action and lots of energy. It's a good idea to have some Feng Shui products or accessories.
Since orange is considered a soft and warm color, it is easy to incorporate with Feng Shui. It is a beautiful sight to see as a sunset. It enhances the rooms and makes them stand out.
