HOW TO DETERMINE WHICH COLOR WILL LOOK GREAT IN YOUR ROOM

This week, I had to fix the color advise that a customer had received for their house three times. The client had received the erroneous color advice either from the internet or from a prior consultant. Naturally, this led to the inspiration for this essay, in which I will discuss how a traditional feng shui audit decides which colors are the greatest and which are the worst to utilize. It is important for me to point out that the majority of practitioners agree that colors do not possess power that even comes close to matching the strength of actual elements. For instance, the color blue and the color black may have a resonance with the element of water, but these colors cannot match with actual water when it comes to functionality. There are also many practitioners who are not at all aware of how the five element theory plays a role in color choices; instead, they rely solely on the new age version of feng shui, which is heavily laden with western color psychology. This is because there are many practitioners who are not aware of how the five element theory plays a role in color choices. For instance, many people believe that a woman should decorate her bedroom in pink if she want to increase the likelihood of finding true love in her life. Even while I agree that different colors may have different effects on our emotions and that pink has the tendency to make one have a more positive impression of the person who is wearing it, I do not believe that this technique can function on any level other than as a placebo. The idea that red is a “power” color is another misconception that has to be corrected. Although the color red has been shown to stimulate hunger, it is not always the color to choose if you want to be more demanding at work or boost your chances of making more money. In point of fact, the color red used in the improper setting may encourage conflicts, accidents, and even major health problems. There is one method that is quite common, although it is unnecessarily simplified, and it is derived from the intrinsic components that are related with the eight primary directions. This method is known as the color wheel. In the “latter heaven” sequence of the Luo Shu, the direction of south is linked to the element of fire. This is only one example. As a result of the fact that the color red is linked to the element of fire, there is a common misconception that the area of a floor plan that is located to the south must be colored red. Because this is such a general approach to the eight trigram theory, using it as a foundation on which to make crucial judgments is fraught with risk. Because it is located in the north-eastern part of the home, one of my customers this week had the idea that she should paint the bedroom that her son shares with her in yellow. She failed to remember the reason I had suggested another hue. It is true that the northeast direction resonates some of the earth element, and hues associated with the earth include yellow and brown. The northeast direction resonates some of the earth element. However, I emphasized to her once again that there is a lot more going on with that section of her home than just the fact that it is located in the northeastern half of the house. Another customer believed that her east-facing kitchen should only be painted in hues of green since the east sector is inextricably linked to the wood phase, and the colors of wood may be any shade of green. There is a certain order that must be followed while selecting the optimal hue, and the first step is analyzing the connection between two energies in the space that are not immediately apparent. Each directional sector of a home has an energy field that was produced when the house was constructed in conjunction with its orientation. This field was established when the house was oriented toward the sun. In traditional feng shui, the terms “mountain star” and “water star” are used to refer to the electromagnetic that drives the laws of the universe. The coding for these energies is numerical, but we refer to the numbers as “stars.” As feng shui concepts are directly derived from astronomy, there is also a connection between these stars and the stars that make up the big dipper. In the event that the two energies are in competition with one another, we may need to bring in a third energy in order to correct the imbalance. Although the actual component is preferable, color may also serve as a secondary kind of reinforcement. For instance, if a person’s bedroom is filled with both metal and fire (which is not evident but can be estimated), there is a collision that has the potential to cause issues with either the person’s head or lungs. According to the principle of the five elements, earth will steal energy from fire and give it to metal, so making metal more powerful. It is possible that the space may accommodate an actual earthy item, such as one made of marble or clay. in addition, a hue from the earth, such as yellow or brown, may be added for good measure. This may be the case regardless of the direction on the floor plan the site is, whether it be the northwest, the south, or any other way. Of course, the element that is linked to the direction may have some imperceptible impact, but first we need to find a solution to the conflict that has arisen between the energies that have been mentioned. This may seem to be a hard topic, and despite this, many people will continue to search for simple solutions and what I refer to as “top ten” do’s and don’ts lists. The common person has a very simplistic understanding of feng shui, which masks the fact that it is a very customized and complex practice. Learning about these energy concepts that are dependent on time and space may be accomplished by digging into the xuan kong fei xing, which is also known as the flying star school. It goes without saying that a person should not feel compelled to select a hue that they do not like just because it is recommended for usage in feng shui; in fact, they should not even feel the need to make this decision. The fact that many individuals have subjective but genuine aversions to various hues makes it impossible for us to disregard personal choice. The good thing is that there are so many color options to choose from that we can discover a cheerful alternative that is appropriate for almost any individual or location.
