When you put your wish in the envelope where do you put the envelope for the most affect.

My color is green should I put my wish on that color paper.

or do I put it on red paper.

Should I use a special color ink or is black and blue ink ok

Dear Glenetta,

To be honest, this has more to do with beliefs than Feng Shui.

Since the Chinese consider red as auspicious, usually, anything to do with red is favourable.

For example, for us, the Hong Bao or red packet - which is a small red envelope is often given (with dollar notes e.g. $2 or $10) each.

A sample of the red packet can be viewed under this link:-

Often, the Chinese would buy red paper i.e. red on one side and white on the other side. They would write "lottery" numbers on this paper.

If you want to you can do the same. Or if there is a pink paper, you can write-down on it.

As to whether blue or black ink, there is no issue.

Traditionally, Chinese calligraphy uses black ink. Thus, black is OK.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
