Although astrology has come to the fore now, if you love manicure with meaning, good old feng shui will help you here. Here's what you need to know about it.


How to do a feng shui manicure (and what is it in general)

Feng Shui is the art of living in harmony with yourself and with the surrounding reality, which is achieved by regular meditations, a special attitude towards people and a special arrangement of objects in the house. At the same time, many Feng Shui fans believe that manicure can also contribute to comprehensive harmonization, if done correctly. 


Five elements

Five elements


There are five elements: metal, water, wood, fire and earth. It is believed that the last digit of the year of birth will help to determine "your" element: 0/1 - metal, 2/3 - water, 4/5 - wood, 6/7 - fire, 8/9 - earth. Depending on him, you should also choose the color of the nail polish, so that he will help you in all your endeavors.


  • Metal- all shades of gray, as well as glitters, sequins and, by the way, translucent varnishes and a subtle shine. Any metallic sheen will count, so you have a lot of options.
  • Water- it is, of course, blue and blue, as well as lavender, dark purple and black, which symbolizes the sea in moments of storm. Glitter is also not prohibited, as are the various marine designs on the nails.
  • Wood- all shades of green, from delicate mint to rich cedar. They are especially good in gradient format, but you can choose the option as you like. 
  • Fire- you have at your disposal not only classic red, but the entire palette of scarlet, yellow and orange shades. For decoration, you can and should use red rhinestones. And if you prefer nail art, let it be flames.
  • Earth- the most versatile range with brown, beige and almost any pastel shades. Long nails and sharp shapes are also not recommended here, but if you cannot live without a twist, let it be something golden.

Power of color

When choosing the color of a manicure, you can focus not only on the elements, but also on what each individual color symbolizes. Here are the basic values:

  • White - purity;
  • Beige - calm;
  • Gray - rationality;
  • Green - health;
  • Pink - youth;
  • Red is happiness;
  • Turquoise - financial success
  • Blue - harmony;
  • Gold is personal success.

The color you like you can select one finger or several... And what fingers and what they mean (yes, this is also feng shui) - we will tell you further.

Which finger is best to highlight


Even if you have never been particularly fond of feng shui manicure, you know for sure that the ring finger is often singled out here. But can others? Well, actually yes, others are also possible. Here are the cases when it is worth doing:

  • Thumb is responsible for intellectual development and success in any commercial activity. Planning a major purchase? Then this is your option.
  • Forefingersymbolizes ourselves, what we are inside. If you need to demonstrate resilience and self-sufficiency, highlight it.
  • Middle finger- a symbol of struggle. He is advised to paint it in a great color when you have a rivalry, from which you must certainly emerge victorious. 
  • Ring fingerresponsible for energy, physical activity and good mood at the same time. For this very reason - and who would be in trouble? - it is the most popular of the accent.
  • Finally there is little finger- a sign of balance in the external and internal spheres. It is believed that he "works" well in a company with a nameless. 

Here are the main principles by which you can make (if you want, of course) a beautiful manicure with meaning. By the way, keep in mind that in order for the feng shui manicure to work out, you need to start itin good spirits and - highly desirable - with meditative or relaxing music.
