Рина Задвиль – Vastu for Harmony at Home and Success in Business (страница 5)

Its use in the correct places will lead to constant balance.

Gray – this color represents spirituality, intelligence, mind, maturity, old age, indecision, practicality, sadness, modernism, lack of sensitivity.

It is a neutral color; therefore, it is not recommended to use it excessively in different areas of the home. It is preferable to combine it with other colors that are more lively and joyful to create a pleasant and non-gloomy appearance.

Turquoise – a combination of blue and green. It unites the qualities of both: freshness, femininity, creativity, calm, inner balance, spirituality, friendliness, love, loyalty, peace, and luck.

A wonderful color that carries much beneficial energy when used.

It is no coincidence that in different cultures turquoise was used for windows and doors as protection from the evil eye.

According to Vastu, pastel and neutral tones are the most recommended of all colors.

But this does not mean that a house (or any other building) must be entirely in light or white tones. Colors can always be combined, and it is desirable to combine them according to personal taste and the principles of Vastu Shastra.

Gold – an expensive metal symbolizing wealth, luxury, prosperity, and brilliance. The characteristics of the color include qualities of brown and yellow. From brown, gold takes happiness; from yellow, it takes wealth.

Gold is a warm color that can be cheerful and bright or dark and traditional.

It is important to clarify that combining gold with other colors will not look cheap.

The use of gold enhances the mind. Additionally, it gives an intelligent appearance, image, and health; it creates success and prosperity; it shows the path to success.

Silver – a metal that demonstrates wealth in a refined manner. On one hand, it has cold properties (like gray), and on the other hand, it is more lively and pleasant.

Meaning of the color: modernity, production, decoration, shine, grace, elegance, intellect, unconditional love, hope, kindness, meditation, mysticism, generosity, sensitivity, and soulfulness.

The main property of silver is that it removes negative energies where it is placed and brings positive ones.

Rose gold – the color signifies: luxury, wealth, style, happiness, elegance, wellbeing, insight, love, and romance. Luxury comes from the gold element, and love comes from the pink.

Using this color (rose gold) fills the atmosphere with calmness and softens the soul, removing anger.

It is good to use this color together with various pastel and nude tones.
