Principle
Anti-Element Colours Matter Only When the Whole Room Is That Colour
A colour counts as an anti-element only when the entire room or zone is done in it; a small item of about 10 percent of the volume creates no dosh.
Principle
Ceiling Colour: Keep It White, Never Red or Brown
The ceiling belongs to the space element, so it should stay white, or natural wood colour for wooden ceilings; red or brown on the ceiling sets fire to space and brings trouble.
What it does
To keep the space element balanced.

Three Bases for Choosing Interior Colours: Kundali, Zone and Work
Interior colours are selected in three ways: from the kundali (the planets ruling education, business, wealth and luck), from the element of the zone (its own colour or a friendly element colour), and from the work done in the space.
