Bringing the right colors for you into your feng shui garden can be a wonderful recipe for feng shui success. The key to that sentence is for you…otherwise everyone’s garden would look the same. Each of us have our own issues and personalities to contend with and by placing the right color combination in your garden will bring balance to your surroundings.
Below I have outlined a list of colors and their coordinated meanings to help you enhance or down-play those things that are most important to you. Remember your bagua areas when choosing the placement of the plants, flowers and trees.
Red-Is for stimulation
Lavender-Eliminates our cravings
Magenta-Ignites the higher mental, emotional and spiritual growth
Purple-Reinforces power and enhances an elevated state
Orange-Inspires blending
Adobe-Mirrors connection
Saffron-Kindles love
Terra Cotta-Bolsters security
Yellow-Eliminates confusion
Sand-Brings investigation into clear view
Tan-Reduces uniqueness
Gold-Shows abundance
Green-Introspection and tranquility
Light Green-Evokes melancholy and relief
Lime-Awakens the soul
Verdigris-Solidifies commitment
Blue-Embodies self-esteem and mystery
Powder Blue-Promotes contemplation
Turquoise-Deepens joy and gratification
Cobalt-Connects to a higher purpose
I cannot think of a garden that I have been in that wasn’t lovely and inspiring, unless it was full of dead things. That is a great killer in feng shui, having things that are dead or dying. If this is the case, these plants, flowers and/or trees need to be removed or tended to with loving care to bring them back if that is even possible. Bring your “A” game to your garden and enjoy creating a beautiful retreat that surrounds you with the support you need and desire.
