Colors affect you!

Each of the quadrants of the Feng Shui Bagua are associated with a particular color. So by using that color, it is possible to activate the energy of that quadrant more powerfully. However, too much of the color tips the scale and leads to imbalance.

For instance, green is the color of new beginnings and growth. It is used in the Family / Foundation area as it represents wood. HOWEVER, too much green and the imbalance created is the feeling of jealousy.

Green can be used in any quadrant to represent a new beginning or fresh starts, but using too much green will lead to increasing feelings of jealousy, especially in that quadrant.

Not to self: If I have a Love & Partnership area that is entirely green, I need to balance it out quickly so as to avoid the jealous feelings that get stirred up!
