What are my Feng Shui Color?
A strong feng shui front door will help you attract great energy for your whole home or office, as it is through the front door that the space receives its energy, or Chi nourishment. A house with good and nourishing Chi will do wonders for your health and well-being, as well as many other areas of your life such as your career, love life, etc; so it makes sense to work on attracting best possible Chi, or energy, to your space.
