Feng Shui Chinese knot, Purple for Insight and wisdom

In your feng shui color applications, color purple should be used with moderation. It is a very strong, high vibration color, the color of connection to the spiritual realms. In terms of energy centers of the human body, the purple color is connected to the higher energy center -- the 7th chakra of cosmic connection.

You most probably have seen many charts emphasizing the powerful energy of purple color as the ultimate color of cosmic access, insight, and wisdom.

Feng shui-wise, the purple color is not recommended in big proportions for a harmonious, healthy home. This means that a focal point wall color in purple, a big purple rug or several big pieces of furniture in this color are not ideal feng shui for a home.

The first step is to be sure you use this color in the right feng shui bagua area. The right feng shui bagua area means a bagua area that thrives on the energy of the fire feng shui element, because color purple is the highest expression of this element.

To make it easier for you, here are the feng shui bagua areas that love the fire element: South, Southwest, Center, and Northeast (as per classical feng shui bagua area). If you are working with the Western/BTB bagua area, then the areas that love the fire element are the Fame and Reputation area, the Love and Marriage area, the Heart of the Home/Yin Yang Point and the Spiritual Growth and Self-Cultivation area.
