What is your favorite color?
Do you know how this color influences you? According to the practice of using colors in Feng Shui, colors influence how we feel and behave. So, let's see how we can use colors and the Feng Shui principles to bring harmony and balance into our lives.

All colors have vibrational energy these vibrational energies can affect us profoundly in a positive or negative way. Shades of red can stimulate a quiet person to be more out going, while a red car could stimulate another person to drive faster. The colors of our clothes, in our homes, colors in each room of our homes, our offices and our cars can make a difference on our demeanor.

Let us look at a palette of colors and see how each color may be used to benefit us according to the Feng Shui principles.

Shades of red, apricot, soft pink creates and enhance passion and sensual bonding.

Pastel shades of blue, green and lavender. Blue is inspirational, calming and serene. Green will lead us to new growth and love.

Gray encourages our self reliance.

Blue or green, these colors create a calming effect.

Yellow, this is a color that is uplifting and creates optimism.
The next time we buy a new car think of how the choice of color will influence us.

We can make or buy a Feng Shui palette for use in our homes and use it for the energies that we would like to capture.
Working with our color palettes we can begin to:
Improve and increase sensual bonding with our loved one by using the warm, cozy shades of red, apricot or pink in our bedrooms.

Become more relaxed and serene by decorating certain areas in our homes in shades of blue and green. We can also utilize pure white in our writing corners to spark our creativity and burst forth with best selling writing projects.

On a personal note of experience, the entire flooring of my home is done in terracotta tiles, from the walk way throughout the house, into the closets, out into the patio and unto the sun deck. Everyone that visits my home comment on the warmth and good energy they feel. Luckily for us we bought it with this wonderful Feng Shui gift intact. Without knowing it I have been enjoying the benefits of the use of colors for many years.

Lets make or buy our Feng Shui palettes, hang them in a convenient place and begin to use colors to bring more harmony, balance, serenity and passion into our lives.
