hi, i'm going to repaint my room and i want to ask what colors should i choose? my current one is yellow and it kinda make my room dark. my house walls are using those rough sand-blast kind of walls. i thought of changing the lighting too. i feel myself this few years not very lucky, in terms of relationships and studies. so thought of remedying it by feng shui. i'm born in the year 1983, month May, day 23. Year of the Pig. and i want to know how do i determine my element as well. please advice
