This item was filled under [ Colour Tips ]

Feng Shui has plenty to say about colour. This is the ancient Chinese science of arranging your home auspiciously to maximize your potential for wealth, health and genreral happiness. Colour is one of the nine ‘cures’ that dominate Feng Shui. Every colour has its own distinctive vibrations. which interact with your own vibes to produce an effect on your life.
At the same time, each colour has a theme of its own, many of which are familiar. Thus orange is a sociable colour, suited to someone who likes being in a crowd and pulled together in a team. Yellow has the power of the sun, is stimulating intellectually and represents wisdom and tolerance. In chinese lore, charms against evil spirits and transcribed onto yellow paper.

Green, meanwhile, linked to the heart and to growth balance and tranquillity, but too much of it can be bad thing, reducing you to apathy if it removes all stress. Blue is spiritual, calming and reliable. Purple promotes idealism, imagination and the vison higher spiritual level where great deeds may be done, even if this involves sacrifice. Of all colours in feng shui, red is most auspicious. It symbolism energy, passion, love and joy. It is guileless, direct and emotional. So powerful is it that it should be used carefully to stir up life. There is danger of over excitement. If you are already vibrant, emotional person.

When choosing colours for your rooms and psces, give some thought to your home as a whole. Colour wants to flow arond the house, not jolt its  way about. Unless a sharp shock here and there is purposely designed for effect.
