Explore the Ancient Color Code and Unlock the Mysterious Aesthetics of the East

Do you know that in the hearts of the Chinese people, colors are not just visual presentations, but also carry the cultural heritage of thousands of years, endowed with endless meanings, mysterious and fascinating ✨

The theory of the five elements, which originated from the ancient philosophical worldview, has taken root in Chinese civilization and profoundly shaped the context of Chinese culture. Among them, the five colors - green, white, red, black, and yellow - are closely connected with the five elements, containing the auspicious meaning of the balance of the five elements and the harmony of yin and yang, just like the auspicious secret language given by the universe 🪐

💚 In the east, where spring wood thrives, there is the god Goumang. The green color is full of vitality, just like the spring wood breaking through the soil, vigorously emerging. Goumang, who is in charge of the growth of spring wood, endows green with agility and vitality, opening the chapter of the four seasons.

🤍 In the west, which belongs to metal, there is the god Rushou overseeing autumn. The pure white color reflects the solemnity of the autumn harvest and also witnesses the solemnity of punishment. The restraint and solemnity of the metal element are fully revealed in this touch of white, adding a bit of majesty to the passage of time.

❤️ In the south, there is the fire god Zhu Rong, with fierce red flames. That leaping red is the heat of the fire, the passion of summer, burning at the southern end of the Chinese land, driving away the haze and bringing light and warmth.

🖤 In the north, Xuanming controls water, and the profound black is deep and mysterious. Like the cold night and the abyss, the vast and mysterious black water. Under the protection of Xuanming in the northern region, black becomes the representative of power and the unknown.

💛 And the god Houtu, who resides in the center, blesses all directions. Yellow is the true color of the earth, the foundation of all things. Throughout the four seasons, without the soil, everything would be in vain. Houtu wears yellow as a garment, bestowing blessings on all living beings.

These five colors interweave, and the gods guard. It is the wisdom of the ancients and also the external manifestation of the Chinese nation's awe of heaven, earth, and nature. Travel through history, experience the charm of traditional colors, and let the oriental aesthetics light up your life.
