FENG SHUI’S LUCKY COLOR OF 2024

Though Pantone’s 2024 Color of the Year is Peachy Fuzz (from the initial Apricot Crush) there is one color that most couples today would lean on, an auspicious color that I personally love, a color of new possibilities.

A Wood Dragon is a creative, generous, ambitious, and idealistic person. Based on Feng Sui, one way to enhance your fortune and personality in 2024, the Year of the Wood Dragon, is to wear emerald green. Emerald green is the lucky color for this year, as it represents the element of wood and the energy of growth and vitality.

Emerald Green is a vibrant and refreshing color that represents growth, renewal, harmony, and balance. It is also the color of the heart chakra, which is related to love, compassion, and healing.

I’m excited how many couples will have Emerald Green as their main motif (pair it with Gold)
