Color is something that Feng Shui makes use of in attracting positive energy into our living space. When you are planning your home’s color schemes, you should pick accordingly to the kind of energy you need. This guide will assist you in choosing the best colors for you to come up with a harmonious home.

Red – This is the color of fire, which represents divine energy. It is advised to use red with caution. Red is best as the color of small decorative pieces in your living areas, rather than with huge furnishings or wall color. This color brings confidence, joy, courage and passion into your life.

Blue – Creating a feeling of serenity, blue is the color of the sea and sky. This color is best used in the east and southeast portions of your home, in the form of wall color and decorative items. Depending on the kind of energy you need, you might want to employ deep blue to promote sleep, or lighter ones to liven up the space.

Yellow – Dull spaces with little sunlight will benefit from the color yellow. This is the color of sunlight, so it evokes a feeling of warmth and cheerfulness. It also brings the fire energy, but in a much gentler way than red. However, it is said that prolonged exposure to this color causes anxiety.

Orange – This color is a brilliant choice for your living room, dining area or elsewhere where lively and playful energy is needed. Orange evokes creativity, one’s sense of purpose and bubbly conversations. This is also the color of choice for those who find red too strong.

Green – Surrounding oneself by the green color of nature is refreshing and nurturing. This color represents the wood element, evoking the healing vibrations from nature into your home. It is best for those who need growth, peace and new beginnings. Having several different shades of green in the home makes the most of the color’s effects.

Purple – Excellent for spiritual and mental healing, purple should be used in moderation. Experts do not recommend this as a wall color, especially in the east and southeast areas of your home, since it is a very strong, high vibration color. Purple is best used in a meditation space; or go for lighter tones such as lavender in adding color to your room.

Pink – The universal color of love, this color is perfect to soothe and fill the heart with love. Pink brings a very fiery energy into your life, especially when coupled with orange. However, too much of this color in one’s home makes the residents tend to live illusive lives.

Black – Although it may convey a feeling of heaviness if used in large proportions, black symbolizes career and sophistication. The color is best used indoors, in the form of furniture shades, frames, and other small decorative items. Black adds depth and definition to any home space.

White – Excellent for use anywhere in the home, especially to contrast bright colors. White soothes the mind by filling it with energy of innocence, tranquility and a bright new future. However, try to limit an all white color scheme in the east and southeast areas of your home.

Feng Shui maintains that the colors used in our living environment as something that affects us physically, emotionally and psychologically. Picking the right Feng Shui colors in your home will attract the kind of energy that will work for you best.

The way to get what you want through the Law of
Attraction is learning to control your thought
process. Negative thoughts produce as much energy as
positive thoughts.

Thinking about your fears and saying “I don’t want
that” is probably going to result in your fears being
realized. Cosmic energy is literal. It doesn’t
understand “I don’t want”.

It produces results based on energy. So if you’re
producing more negative energy than positive, your
results are going to be negative.

Training your mind to concentrate on the positive
instead of the negative is a necessary, but often
difficult process. People are worriers.

It’s a survival thing designed to help us remember and
avoid the dangers of life. But being aware of our
fears and letting them control our thoughts are two
different things. Turning the negative fears into
positive thoughts is the key.

Your thoughts are yours. They can be your faithful
servants or your masters. Which ever you allow them to
be. You have the control, you make your choice. You
determine which course your thoughts take.

Learning to control your thoughts can be done by
learning to control your will. By mastering yourself.
Phrases like “I am master of my self” can lead you in
the right direction.

Repeating these or similar words, and believing them,
will make them real. When confronted with fears and
doubts, remembering to “master” your thoughts keeps
the positive energy flowing. Leaving no room for the
negative energy to manifest..

With the popularity of Akashic Record believers is at
an all time high, and becoming more and more popular,
there are still skeptics out there who doubt the whole
theory behind Akashic Records.

Despite the claims made by believers, there are no
direct references to the Akasha in any historical
documentation.

The scientific community historically has rejected
these theories due to a lack of verifiable evidence.

The records are not even recognized in specific
religious traditions. Most religious sects do not
recognize let alone support the thoughts and beliefs
of the Akashic Records.

The Akashic Records involve new age techniques such as
meditation and the church frowns upon these beliefs.

With no hard evidence of the Akashic Records
existence, it is not unusual that there is a lot of
skepticism.

In fact, because of some of the ways that people claim
they are able to tap into the Akashic Records, such as
slipping into unconscious stated that are drug induced
or sleep depravation related, it can be hard to
believe the people who claim to be clairvoyants and
who claim they are able to visit the Akashic Records.

Of course, it is not uncommon to have skeptics. All
religions and believes come with skepticism.

As people open their minds more to new age religions
and beliefs, we will continue to see a growth in the
belief of the Akashic Records.

Maybe more people will learn to channel their inner
peace and find a place inside them for the Akashic
Records to materialize.
