Color My World

By John Holland

It’s often said that every living thing is a rainbow of colors. Every color has its own meaning and affects you in uniquely different and profound ways. When it is Spring and I am able to be outdoors, whether it’s driving in a car or walking my dog in a local park, I notice and appreciate even more now the colors of nature that are vibrantly coming forth. The clear blue sky dotted with white clouds, the new green growth of the earth, the multitude of hues coming from blooming flowers, the different tones of browns and tans from the trees, even the many colors of the variety of birds that have arrived after a long winter, all have a positive effect on me as I take them in and let them blend with my own aura.

Many people don’t realize the importance of color in that each one vibrates to its own different frequency. We all have a main color in our aura, but there are many other colors in our aura that do change based on what’s happening around us physically, mentally, emotionally, and yes even spiritually. I use color in my work, whether it’s to read a person’s aura, to send healing color to someone, or even during my guided meditations. There are so many different ways you can use color in your life, whether it’s to give you more energy, for inspiration, to calm your nerves, and to heal your body. Even the health care industry has recognized the importance of color, and is beginning to use color light therapy with patients depending on their need or healing.

You need to be more aware of the colors that surround you, including the colors you choose to wear or even the colors in your home, and how colors can help and affect you. I always tell parents not to put their children in bright yellow bedrooms because although yellow is a beautifully vibrant color, it may also make that child feel too emotional and extra sensitive. I also wouldn’t put a child in a red room; it’s a physical color that may make them feel restless. Blue works nicely to calm and brings a sense of peacefulness. Have you ever noticed that in hospitals the colors are calming pastels? Most hospitals are tans, blues, and pale greens, which all have a calming effect on their patients.
