Color is often used as a feng shui cure. It falls under the more exoteric of the feng shui cures because it is a change in the physical (tangible) part of your space. Color can be used to magnetize different changes in your life.

For example, red is an energizing and protective color. It can be used to energize a desk or a front door or even your bed. Purple is a color that relates to abundance and prosperity. Think of it as a royalty color, especially when combined with gold, red, and green. Pink is associated with love. White is associated with creativity and inspiration. Blue is associated with wisdom and knowledge. Orange can be a color for boundaries if you need a little extra help in that area. It can also symbolize community.

Color can be used in your home or office and you can either use it in a big way (as in painting a room) or as an accent. If you can do a lot, great, but a little bit with the right intentions can go a long way.

You can also use color as part of your wardrobe in case you want to feng shui yourself for a big meeting, a family visit, or even a hot date. So try it out and see what color can do for you.
