North Facing Bedroom Color Scheme Tips

To create more harmonious energy at home, you need to strengthen the feng shui elements needed in specific Bagua areas. For example, you would bring plants (Wood feng shui element) and a water feature (Water feng shui element) in the East area of your Bagua to strengthen the energy needed to maintain good health and family harmony. Here you will learn about North facing bedroom color scheme tips.

If you have a North bedroom, you might have to go for more complex or subtle feng shui decorating ideas. A bedroom in the North feng shui Bagua area often presents a challenge as the feng shui element needed in the North – the Water feng shui element – needs to be restricted in a good feng shui bedroom.

Feng Shui Tips

01. Black and White

Bring black and white artwork into your bedroom and place it in a visually pleasing arrangement. Be sure the images are appropriate, feng shui-wise, for the bedroom. Black is the color of the Water feng shui element, and white is the color of the Metal feng shui element. Both elements and colors are very nourishing for the North feng shui Bagua area.

02. White/ Cream/ Soft grey

Go for predominantly white/cream/soft grey colors in your bedroom with some subtle warm Earth, Wood, and Fire feng shui elements decor accents. For example, you can sure have warm red or chocolate brown pillows, but not red or chocolate brown color paint on the wall.
You need to avoid strong Earth, Fire, and Wood elements in a North facing bedroom. The Earth, Fire, and Wood feng shui elements will weaken the energy of the Water feng shui element needed in your North facing bedroom.

03. Beautiful Mirror

Position a beautiful mirror to reflect more light coming into the bedroom. Be sure the mirror does not face the bed or the bedroom entrance. Go for a round metal feng shui element shape or slightly oval mirror. A well-positioned mirror will strengthen the needed Water feng shui element in the North area without draining good energy from your bedroom.

04. Shapes

Avoid the following shapes in your North facing bedroom.

• Square (Earth feng shui element shape)
• Rectangular (Wood feng shui element)
• Triangular (Fire feng shui element)

This applies to your furniture. For instance, the bed and bed headboard, side tables, dresser, as well as your bedroom textures, bed linens, and fabric. The colors and shapes of the Earth, Fire, and Wood feng shui elements weaken the energy of the water element needed in your North facing bedroom.

You can go further and find many creative solutions to any feng shui dilemma you are facing. Just be sure you understand well the interplay of the five feng shui elements. Armed with this knowledge, you are sure to bring good energy into your home!
