One of the basic principles of Feng shui is the principle of five elements, which are Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. These Feng shui elements interact between themselves in certain ways, generally defined as the Productive and Destructive cycles. Each Feng shui element is represented by a specific color, and color is the easiest way to use the five elements principle to bring more harmony into your home with feng shui. The easiest way to get your life moving by using feng shui is to bring the energy of specific feng shui colors in order to achieve the desired results. Color is very powerful, as it is an expression of light, and many, way too many homes and offices are starved for light. So, bring on vibrant light energy with beautiful feng shui colors! Color Blue is a very good Feng shui choice in the North bagua area to support the energy of your carrer growth or in the East (Health/Family) and Southeast (Wealth/Money) to water and nourish the Wood feng shui element. Feng Shui and Blue Blue is associated with the element of water. This element has the dual ability to be calm, still and restfull like a pond or free flowing powerful and liberated like a river or sea. In Feng Shui blue therefore represents your inner tranquillity and your path in life. If you feel stuck in life, introducing blue into your home can help free up that energy and get it moving again. If you feel restless blue can be very calming like a tranquil sea or lake. Introducing water into your home in the form of an indoor fountain or fish tank can assist both freeing up energy flow and settling restless energy. In feng shui blue also represents learning as the ocean represents the vast depth of knowledge and creativity available to us all. Bearing this in mind blue could be a good choice for an office or study. Colour therapy and Blue In colour therapy blue influences the neck area such as the throat and the thyroid gland. It therefore influences both the body's metabolism through the thyroid and speech and communication through the throat. Colour therapists also see blue as promoting relaxation and improved sleep patterns. In common with Feng shui it is seen as promoting learning and self empowerment. A good colour for an office or study. Colour therapist use blue to: Alleviate, Insomnia, Nervous anxiety, Shock, Low self esteem/confidence Blue can aggravate: Sadness/ depression, Coldness, Isolation, SAD (seasonal affective disorder). Water: Water is the most powerful symbol of money in feng shui. Its sparkling chi energy is beneficial for your health and prosperity but care must be taken to keep water fresh and clean. Another great way to incorporate water into your business is the use of any artifact that depicts water.
