Hi Cecil,

I analysis that I am a "weak fire" by entering the birthdate , time etc to the tool in your site. From the colour chart, seems like "weak fire" person should use green and avoid grey. Correct me if I am wrong.

But as a "dog"person which is belong to "earth", you advised not to use green.

Now , I am confused, should I use green? which colour to avoid?

Which theory should I follow?

A feng shui teacher told my friend that a dog (earth) should avoid using yellow as yellow belong to "water". Is this true?

But I am Leo(English astrology) and Leo lucky colour should be yellow or orange. The English and Chinese theory are confusing me

Pls enlighten me

Thanks
