FENG SHUI COLOURS FOR YOUR FRONT DOOR

"Pick the Perfect Feng Shui Color for Your Front Door"

By Kathryn Weber

There is little more important in your feng shui than your front door. Realtors know this. Many times a house sells itself right at the front door. If the front door is attractive, the front and curb appeal of the home appealing, the house will enjoy good feng shui and the occupants will thrive. That’s because your front door is the mouth of chi, the point at which energy enters your house.

Your front door is the doorway to opportunities, income, improved prosperity, happiness and all manner of good fortune. To say that your front door is the front door to happiness is no exaggeration.

Making the front door look as attractive as possible encourages good feng shui and all the benefits that come with it. A crucial part of that then is to paint your front door with the right door colour for your home’s facing direction. To do so, you will need to know what direction your door faces by using a compass and looking from your door out toward the street. Once you know that, then apply the correct color.

Determining the most auspicious color for your front door

It’s important to know that there are two ways to go about selecting your front door color.

The first is to paint it a harmonious color, which would be the color that the direction that your door faces. So, for instance, north is the direction associated with the color blue and black, to represent water. In this case, any water colors from pale blue to deepest black is appropriate.

But there is another even more important color you can paint your front door, and that’s the productive color.

Taking our example above of the north door, the direction of north represents water, so by painting it a color related to metal, because metal produces water, you will have an even more auspicious and helpful front door that will enhance your opportunities, income and good fortune!
