Colour Astrology

 Colour and the Zodiac:  Everything and anything vibrates colour and, if you are in contact with it enough, it will influence you. Those who lack fire tend to need reds and oranges, whereas a lack of the water element calls for blues and pinks; a lack of earth needs green, and a lack of air needs yellow. With an overabundance of fire, blue tones should be used, while red balances an overabundance of water. Violets and blue-violet correct an overbalance of earth; blues and greens, an overabundance of air. Each sign of the Zodiac has its planetary ruler and unique characteristics emanating from that planet. Each sign radiates its own hues and colour. The spectrum of colours with each of the signs of the Zodiac signifies psychological, spiritual, and physical energies special to that sign.

Effects of colours on behaviour and moods

Image
  Colours affects Moods, feelings and behaviours The Psychology of Colour is primarily still within the realms of folk or commonsense psychology and has been widely associated with culture. The significance of colour could well be related with particular cultures, emotions and situations although there are very few scientific experiments on colour or a scientifically valid 'colour psychology'. The psychology of colour studies the effects of colours on human feelings and behaviour. It is usually believed that red makes people happy or fervent and yellow raises alertness, white is about purity and cleanliness, black evokes a sense of mystery, loss or anonymity. Natural colours are well accepted and universal simply because of their familiarity and this concept could well be used in colours for advertisements or products. Natural products should be sold in boxes or cans with natural colours or should represent the colour of products. Thus lemon juice is best sold in a yellow or gr

The first step in colour healing through chakras is to determine which chakra is out of balance. This can be determine by a self evaluation of our condition and comparing it with a chart of the chakras such as given elsewhere.
