Feng Shui color is modeled after the five elements - wood, fire, earth, metal and water. In regards to Feng Shui and color, the meaning of certain colors reflect on the characteristics of these five elements. Did you ever noticed this?

Feng Shui uses this natural magic of colors to transform your life.

Utilizing the elements through various colors can be as easy or as complicated as you would like. In some cases, simply placing a small object of a certain color can trigger positive chi, whereas others may paint entire rooms a certain color. In any case, the important thing to remember in Feng Shui is to use what is agreeable to you and keep a balanced perspective. Remember to incorporate all five elements in your home through colors or the element itself (a fountain for water, a bronze sculpture for metal, etc.)

In essence, feng shui uses colors in two ways that are not totally dissimilar to our current use of color in the home. Large areas, or backgrounds, tend to be pale. Accent colors, which are more vivid, are used more sparingly on only small surfaces, such as a piece of furniture. The principle is: the stronger the color, the less is needed for it to be effective.

Personal preference is considered important in feng shui, so it is unwise to use a color, even if highly favorable and auspicious, if you do not actually like it.
