What's your favorite color? Colors are important in feng shui but unfortunately your favorites don't come into play. According to feng shui philosophy, colors have a direct effect over the level of tranquility in your home.

There are five elements that are essential to feng shui: fire, wood, metal, earth and wind. Each element is associated with a color or a group of similar colors that represent its energy. You'll be surprised to see where you favorite color turns up.

Earth - In feng shui theory, the earth represents stability in your life. It helps you to stay rooted and grounded in your relationships. The colors associated with the earth element are beige and a light shade of yellow. Light colors like these on walls will lighten up a space and make you feel as if anything is possible.

Fire - Red, pink, bright yellow and orange are Fire element colors. They invoke feelings of energy and passion that leads you to a higher personal vibration. Fire goes hand in hand with passion and heat.

Wood - Why do you think money is most often green? Trees are obviously made of wood and most often contain lush leaves of green. They are givers of life and Feng shui philosophy states that the wood element stands for prosperity and keeping with that theme of "givers of life," green and brown are the colors that fit.

Metal - Metal is the element responsible for bringing clarity to your life with its well defined shapes and lines. White and gray are the colors of metal.

Water - Water refreshes the mind and the body. It calms you as you bathe in it. It also represents a feeling of plenty and abundance. Water colors are black and blue and their use in the home is all about purity of mind and body.

The use of color in your home is not just about painting the walls. It's also about the furniture, the accent pieces and the artwork in the room as well. I encourage you to let the feng shui energy map be your guide and then invigorate your home with vivid colors that heighten the energy vibration. Don't be afraid of using colors. Instead, be bold and you'll be happily surprised by the results.
