Feng Shui - The Colour Of Joy

The origins of feng shui in China can be trace back more than 4000 years, but its roots extend further back to the earliest tribal healers. Throughout the ages, the purpose of feng shui has remained essentially the same: to create environments that support wellbeing and prosperity. Feng Shui translate literally to “wind-water”. The ancient Chinese saw the Earth as a living and breathing entity. They observed the cycles of life, began to understand the power of Nature, and honed skills to activate and direct the flow of energy.

Colour is one of the most powerful tools used in feng shui. Each colour vibrates its own unique frequency and expresses a particular energy. Colour can enhance the energy in a room. While colour selection is a personal matter, it can be a determining factor of whether an environment evokes calm or stimulation, happiness or depression, comfort or discomfort. Colour affects moods, behaviour and physical reactions.


According to feng shui, the colour orange represents the element of fire. Use a small amount of orange in the center of your home, as fire energy nourishes this area.


Orange is considered a “social” colour as the feng shui energy stimulates conversations. Use this colour on a wall or through accessories in the dining room. Orange energy inspires creativity, curiosity, happiness and enthusiasm, so apply a small amount to create playful, lively energy in a child’s play area or a studio. People who like the colour orange are usually thoughtful and sincere.


Outside the home, wear an orange scarf or orange jewelry in public to set an approachable, communicative energy. If you need orange energy, eat an orange, mango, carrot, butternut squash or sweet potatoes. Wrap yourself in an orange blanket if you are recovering from surgery, illness or an accident. If you feel like you’ve run out of ideas or can no longer concentrate, surround yourself with orange flowers such as daylilies, roses, tulips or gerberas for a lift.


Look to Nature when choosing shades of orange, from the deep orange of winter fires to the splendid orange tones of autumn leaves, from the warmth of the desert sun to a summer sunset. The earthy tones of orange will strengthen your appetite for life and give you a sense of purpose.
