The Power of Colour

I have often wondered if we will ever fully understand the language of colour. Or the profound power it holds.  How it intimately influences our every day. Our thoughts and our actions. Our moods and our decisions. It adds richness to what is the ever-changing palette of Life. It supports the diversity, textures and the contours of our world. Colour is entwined within the very fabric of Life. Adding depth. Adding meaning. Connecting to memories held forever deep within our hearts and minds.

Every colour has purpose. The primary colours provide a base camp from which their many, many hues and variations reach out to fill our world with varying degrees of beauty. Bursts of colour have the power to bring forth emotions of absolute joy, love and a sense of wellbeing. They too have the capability to transport the less positive emotions such as, anger, jealousy and anxiety. Colours guide us through the complexities of Life. They warn us of danger. At times, they direct us as to which direction we should travel.

Gentle hues quietly nurture the world. Their unseen powers filtering into our energies. Bringing serenity and softness. Lifting our spirits. Healing us gently. Enfolding our world in a continuous flow of support.

Colours feed our attitudes. They have the power to prevent us from seeing the truth. They possess the power to let in the light.  If we allow them.
