I am currently working towards an interior design diploma and have been studying colour. Have you ever thought about the origin of certain colours? I was fascinated to learn that in ancient
Roman times, purple dye was extracted from the glands of murex
mollusks. It took more than ten thousand
of these shellfish to produce enough dye to colour just one Emperor’s
robe. Since this was an expensive and
labour-intensive process, it was only the very wealthy who could afford to wear
clothing of this hue. This is said to
be the reason why the colour purple became associated with
royalty.
In BTB Feng Shui, the colour purple is associated with
wealth and abundance. When standing at your front door, the back left section of your home is designated as your Wealth and
Abundance Gua. If you wish to improve
your financial situation, consider adding some purple to this area of your
home. If purple does not work with your
current home décor, think about planting some purple flowers in the back left corner of
your property. Let me know how your finances
improve!
