"Colour is a vital force. It is a manifestation of the Divine Mind. It is the original cosmic vibration."                                                  ~Anonymous~

We relate to colour through sensation and translate what we can see by how we feel and react towards a specific colour.

With every word, thought and action you enrich your life with colours.

The way you love and learn is colour itself.

Throughout life we use them as a cues for interpreting what we see, grey hair tells us of middle age; grey landscapes speak of cities; a red apple tells us of ripeness; a red traffic light brings us to a halt.

Colour is also strongly linked with emotions.

The spoken word is perhaps our most creative expression. It's not so much the word that is important but the way it said.

One example is the use of the word "bloody". Used literally, the word creates an image of an area covered in blood. But used colloquially, it becomes a versatile adjective that serves to accentuate another word. For instance, "bloody horrible" means that something is very horrible. Yet "bloody fabulous" gives off an ecstatic feeling.

The emotions add colour to the words and often render the literal meaning useless while managing to get the message across clearly.

By describing people as "green with envy", "purple with rage", "yellow with cowardice", or "seeing red", we are using common colour associations that may have more truth than we realize. These associations are only a small part of our lifelong relationship with colour.

We live by the rhythm and tempo of colour changes indicating the passage of time and the cycle of the seasons.

For instance as the day passes, the daylight colours change, the deep blue of the sky before dawn gives way to the paler blue light that permeates mornings, this is followed by the more yellow hue of the afternoon and then the red light of the evening when the sun sets.

These changes can be so gradual and steady that they are barely noticeable, but nonetheless they colour our awareness of the passing day.

Many of us live in houses that offer light at any time of the day or night, and heat or coolness throughout the year, and so to some extent we lose contact with the natural rhythms of the daily and yearly cycle.

Each day you are touched by the colour of humanity and nature.

The air you breathe, the ground under your feet, the Sun, the Moon and the stars - all are vibrating their own particular colour essence that both sets them apart and unites them with you as one, in the essence of life itself.

Even seasons highlight very different colours, with the fresh, brand new greens of spring darkening as summer progresses, and then providing an inferno of orange, yellow and gold as autumn settles in only a few months later.

Winter launches into an austere note, with few remaining vibrant colours, and sometimes a smattering of snow that eradicates the lingering green, reducing the outlook to a simple contrast between darkness and light.

Colour is the celebration of life.

If you travel to any part of the world you can see it in action.

People from all walks of life are creating a colourful existence in all manner of ways: painting their faces, performing rituals, telling stories, creating statues and monuments, designing costumes and fashion clothes, staging theatre and musical productions, inventing objects, enhancing their environment and so on.

History too tells colourful tales through archaeological sites, architecture, art and literature. Today we marvel at the cleverness of people who created the Pyramids and the Parthenon thousands of years ago.

Light and its constituent colour have a strong effect on both mind and body.

At physical, mental, and emotional levels we respond to colours whether we realize it or not. Colour often has different meanings in various cultures, even in Western societies, the meanings of various colours have changed over the years.
