Feng Shui Color Design -
Light up your Life with Feng Shui
By Bernard

Feng Shui color design
plays a very important part in creating harmony in your
home; colors can change how the light enters a room and can
also make a room appear much more airy. Colors can also have
a significant impact on your mood. Some colors make you
happier, while others make you more energetic.
Bright colors are considered yang colors, and pastel cooler
colors are yin energy. Feng Shui color design is concerned
with balancing yin and yang energy. Yin energy is much more
feminine energy and is considered more calming, yang energy
is masculine and bolder.
There are specific colors which can be used in certain areas
of the home. When you use feng shui color design correctly
you can strengthen and improve the chi associated with this
color. White is used in the northeast corner and improves
motivation, thinking, and knowledge. Yellow can be used in
the center of a room to improve opportunities and power. The
north of the room is associated with cream colors and this
improves independence, sexuality and spirituality.
Gray and silver can be used in the northwest corner which
improves self control, organization, responsibility and
dignity. Pink can be used in the west for romance, and
contentedness. Purple when used in the south is associated
with passion, dark blue or green when used in the southeast
corner is related to creativity or imagination. Bright green
can be used in the east for ambition, self esteem and
confidence.
You shouldn't think that
the only way you can add color to your room is by painting
it, actually there are many different ways that you can add
color to your room without doing anything as drastic as
painting. Adding pillows can be enough to create an accent
color. You should carefully choose pictures which have the
colors you want to use in the living room. Rugs are also a
great way to quickly add color to a room. Other ways include
lamps, or wall hangings.
You might also want to use furniture and drapes to add
colors into your room. If you don't want to or can't change
your furniture then you can put a cover or throw over it.
Use a color which will look interesting and stand out so
that people are drawn to looking at that item.
Feng Shui color design can also be used to select the colors
of clothing that you should wear. Different colors will
change how you feel, and prepare you for certain situations.
To draw attention to yourself and to increase the amount of
energy you have you should wear red clothes and metal
jewelry. If you want to be more assertive and confident then
green clothes work well. Loose fitting cream clothes help
you to relax, browns and yellows make you more
compassionate.
Colors are an important part of feng shui which you need to
pay special attention to. By looking carefully at colors you
will be able to create more of the energy that you would
like.
