myfs_155246 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Our kitchen is located in the South and Southeast. My husband is planning on redoing the walls and floors in the kitchen within the next few weeks. He was planning on painting the walls and cabinets purple and green (sounds strange but looks nice on the sample we looked at). I have read where purple and green should not be used in the kitchen this year because of the visiting stars (especially 5), using instead greys, blues and whites. Whatever colors we go with will be on the walls and cabinets for several years to come. The current walls and cabinets are done in orange (cabinets) and a hideous orange plaid for the wallpaper (which is peeling badly). He hates white or beige walls, so I am looking for some color advice that will work well with feng shui and also make him happy. We are also getting a new stove (anniversary present from his dad) which is black. The refrigerator is white. It is a period 6 house which had the roof replaced in 1984. based on it being a period 6 house. the South has MS4, WS9 base 1. SE has MS9, WS5, base 5Thank you for any advice you can give me.

Even when applying Feng Shui; geomancers usually would look at the 20 Year Flying Star of the apartment and access the colours (if any to avoid).3. But your statement seems so either short-sighted or impratical.4. To most people reading it; it can sound like you either gona renovate or change the colours yearly or really don't know what to say... 5. From a general Feng Shui perspective, for the kitchen one colour that should generally be avoided is BLUE colour e.g. blue laminated kitchen cabinets. As blue belong to the Water element and may clash with the stove position.6. Otherwise, often, the Flying star of the specific kitchen sector is looked into. And if there is a water or mountain star #3 in the kitchen sector; it is recommended to avoid GREEN colour (not brown or wood tone).
