Colors!!

Have you ever paid attention to the colors around you? Are you aware of the fact that colors have meanings and depict emotions? If not, this post takes you to the world of colors.

Origin of Color- The atom is the smallest unit of matter consisting of a nucleus (with protons and neutrons) surrounded by electrons. Every material in this Universe is made up of elements which are in turn composed of atoms (of the same type). Atoms absorb light. White light is a mixture of all the colors of the spectrum. Generally, though materials absorb light, the light that is not absorbed (in other words, the color that is reflected) is the color you see.

Colorcan tap moods, change actions and cause reactionsColorare a source of power; each one has a function and purpose. I have made an attempt to unveil the meanings of the most common colors.
  • RED symbolizes fire & blood and hence is associated with power and importance. It is also considered a symbol of danger, though Red Roses symbolize love and lust.
  • GREEN is the color of harmony and health. It symbolizes self-respect and helps in bringing about balanced state of mind. It relaxes your eyes when they are stressed out.
  • BLUE is the coolest color – the color of the sky & the oceans. It is considered the color of Divinity & Spirituality. Blue broadens one's horizons and gives a calm & conservative feeling.
  • YELLOW is the color of wisdom and intellectual energy. It helps in improvising one's decision making skills and gives a cheering effect.
  • PINK symbolizes love, care and acceptance. Pink is considered a feminine color!
  • PURPLE symbolizes mystery and royalty. It is generally associated with imagination and helps soothe one's mind.
  • ORANGE depicts creativity and thoughtfulness. It is a dynamic bright color with curiosity being the main characteristic, leading to the exploration of things. 
  • BLACK is associated with authority, power and is also considered a symbol of death. Black in the general sense is said to conceal things.
  • WHITE symbolizes peace, purity and kindness. It depicts a fresh beginning and is a symbol of loyalty.
  • BROWN is the color of Earth and depicts 'down-to-earth' feeling.
Thus, color is in every part of life. Take a moment to look around, feel the colors and enjoy the colors. Wishing you a colorful life! :)
