Feng Shui Colors

In Feng Shui there are some general colors which enhance every home. For example, light colors are considered better than dark colors because they create more energy and positivity.

Red is also quite a safe color. It brings happiness and it is a color which you will frequently see in Chinese weddings.

Very dark colors are usually inauspicious unless you were born in the wood or water element year.

Your Personal Colors

To find out your personal colors, firstly you need to find out which element is yours. To do that, you need to check which element rules the year you were born. You can check this here.
