Colour is energy and energy is colour-coded in every substance on earth that contains colour. Now a little into the science of colour...
Our main source of energy is sunlight and in the sun's rays colour exists. We all remember being taught 'r-o-y-g-b-i-v'... red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. These are the colours that make white light. When we are in the sunlight, we receive all colours and that is why we feel great when we are in the sun.
However, nowadays we are mainly indoors (70% of the time) and therefore we receive less sun energy than what our body, mind and spirit requires. This is why illnesses can manifest, because our lack of colour nutrition.
Haven't we all heard the doctor say eat a variety of colour on your plate? It wasn't because it looked pretty rather, because every colour feeds our body a sort of nutrition. For example,
red foods tend to contain more iron,
whereas orange foods contain more beta-carotene.
Every food has a specific colour vibration, and if you know about chakras then you know that each chakra is stimulated by a specific vibration as well. That is why sun and food are so important for our well being, but it is when we aren't in the sun, or when we aren't eating right that we feel the effects, either emotionally, mentally, physically or spiritually.... makes perfect sense right. So we need to understand this and work at bettering ourselves so we don't have problems on any chakra levels.
Now let's talk about things that are re-occurring in one's health. For example, if say you are tired all the time, then this means that you lack the fire that is your driving force.
Symptoms of low red root energy are tiredness, lack of driving force, low self-esteem, lethargic, lower back pain, etc. So if you have any of these symptoms, then you know you need more red.Over several years I have worked with thousand of people testing them and when people tend to avoid a colour there is often a reason. I did a seminar for the Canadian Mental Health association and out of about 30 people not one liked the colour orange, and they all
suffered from various forms of depression. Coincidence? I think not, as orange is the colour of joy and happiness and connects to our inner child of the spleen/navel chakra.
When we are not happy than we lack the orange energy within ourselves that creates this feeling of joy in our lives.... we feel empty. Also people with asthma and allergies tend to avoid orange... so if anyone in this chat room has allergies... ask yourself if there are certain orange foods that you are allergic to.
This tends to be common... also orange is our water element in our body... our emotions (such as crying for joy or sadness is our orange energy). People tend to repress in this area... woman deny their femininity and then end up with female problems... whereas when men have a Buddha belly tummy, that reflects that the orange energy is imbalanced.
Now yellow is our upper digestive system that relates to yellow.
Think of a lemon and how detoxifying and refreshing that is... I remember when I first started with Colour Energy, yellow was the colour I avoided the most, and I had constipation problems. I also had an allergy to rosemary (a yellow herb) and a skin condition....
Well 7 months of working with the yellow energy
(eating more yellow foods, bathing in the yellow Colour Bath)... I cleared up all my symptoms!!! Also, my memory increased and boy am I smarter now! tee hee
and wittier too...
Yellow also support the release of toxins which in today's society, this is very important to know. In California they did a study and found that children that were in yellow and blue painted rooms increased their average grade point. Imagine that... all by changing the colour of a room, so simply.
Now green energy is all about the heart and relationships.
Look at your posture and that will tell you if your green energy is balanced. Also breathing problems are indicative of an imbalance in this area. Think of a walk in nature and how your breathing slows down as you enjoy the green of the forest... hugging a tree opens up your heart. Green things are often very supportive of the respiratory system, such as eucalyptus or spearmint.
The blue energy controls our throat chakra and our communication abilities. If you have stresses in the neck, then you know you are not always speaking your inner truth... this is a problem with the human race. As we become more telepathic, then we will increase our throat chakra center as we learn to trust in what we say. The throat chakra also governs our thyroid gland, and if this is imbalanced, you will not lose weight... for anyone wanting to loss or gain weight than work on your blue energy.
The brow chakra, supports our nose, eyes, ears and brain organs. If you find that your mind is always racing with needless thoughts, that indicates too high indigo energy. Headaches will results when the brow center is imbalanced. This is also often caused by lack of water. Think of a plant that doesn't get enough water, how it droops its head. Our indigo center also needs water so that our intuitive abilities can flourish...
Next is our violet crown center... the violet energy also support our pituitary gland which is our master gland. It is when our violet center is strong, that we can connect to the higher powers of the universe for spiritual wisdom, but if your fire is low, or if any of your chakra's are imbalanced, then the energy can not flow up to the top.
It is important to have all colour nutrition... as when all colours are equal, it creates white light... and the white energy is spiritual enlightenment. If you neglect even one energy you cannot make white light. It is always important for balance of body, mind and spirit that all chakra's are treated equally.
On the website:
www.chakraenergy.com there is a free chakra test that you can do to see where your chakra strengths and weaknesses are. It is important to understand how where you need to work on and how to increase the energy in that area. The science of body language tells us this instantly... listen to your body... where you hurt or have problems will tell you in what chakra center you are imbalanced. Then bring in the colour nutrition so that you can become colour balanced.
The anatomy of the body reflects your aura. If your knee hurts, your aura will show red outside of the knee. What you are inside of you... is what you display in your electromagnetic field (your aura), outside of you, so eat well and be in the sun... work with tools that support your spiritual growth, and most of all have a positive attitude.
Energy follows thought and this is very important to understand... every thought will feed your body, mind and spirit. Let that energy appreciate your body and talk to it when it calls to you... ask it what colour it needs, or what you can do to help it. I talk to my body all the time... as I generally know why it expresses itself to me. Intention is everything... colour is a natural food of the body, so learn how to help yourself and create your own colour palate of your aura.
Every colour has a different effect on the body, mind and spirit. You can also learn more about yourself in the colours you choose to wear.
In north America, the two most favorite colours are... can you guess? Blue is one colour... and green is the other. That tells you that we are a very passive society, compared to countries that are hotter, and prefer the hues of red orange and yellow more.
Colours are hot and cold.
Red, orange and yellow are hot or "warm" colours and stimulate your the most physically. Whereas,
blue,
violet and
indigo are referred to as the cooler colours. Think of the sayings red hot or ice blue... in hospitals they have been using blue light on babies born with jaundice for decades.
Colour healing has been used for thousands of years. The Egyptian's used colour amulets for healing, that is why gemstones are so powerful as they radiate energy. I wear a beautiful chakra gemstone necklace for helping to support my chakra daily... we even use quartz crystal to program computer chips or to run our clocks. Imagine the power of a stone to support your energy needs...
There is so much to learn about colour. Since I have become more colour aware, I can honestly tell you my energy is much more clear, and those whom I have met over the years, that have integrated colour into their daily lives, have found that colour energy is healing to the body, mind and spirit.... and it's so easy to do!
Try using one colour for a complete day and document any responses. For example,
work with your red root chakra first. Wear something red that day, drink and eat mainly red foods, bathe in red, or apply red oils to your body (such as ylang ylang or sandalwood). Rev up your root by kick starting your day with some red exercises (such as hip rotations or jogging). Become that red energy... feel the power in your bones... then notice if red made you feel more mentally clear or alert.
Maybe you noticed more energy... or that you were more confident...or that you could speak your truth... notice if you felt more ravenous. After you played with the red energy for the day, then how did you sleep after a red day? I discovered that
I sleep best in indigo coloured bed sheets as indigo is like the midnight sky... calming and relaxing to the body...
Indigo also stimulates the pineal glands which triggers the melatonin production in your body. That is what helps you to have good sleeps. Also indigo is great to empower dream activity, and I like to work with this energy to help me solve things, as indigo taps into the unknowingness energy.... this is a great energy for mediation and intuitive development... but make sure your red is strong so you stay grounded to the earth!
I love violet to inspire me... I am very artistic with violet. I used to own an art store, and now when I look back, much of my clothing was violet in colour.
