Today: RED
RED color carries the energy of Fire element in feng shui. Fire has always been a symbol of divine energy and can be both destructive and creative. It represents the energy of sun and life. A balanced Feng Shui Fire Element in your home will bring joy, excitement and sexual desire.
The Feng Shui Energy of color RED is the energy of arousal. It is hot, passionate, rich and celebratory. It is the Chinese color of luck and happiness, the marriage color in India, and the symbolic color of love and romance, courage and passion in the West.
In Feng Shui color decorating RED always signifies richness and luxury. If used too much, though, it can bring restlessness, burst of anger and over stimulation. Better use it with caution, always easier to bring RED with details and accessories, rather than with furnishings or wall color.
Use RED with most moderation in children´s rooms, freely in the living room, dining and in the kitchen.
