White:
The color white includes every color in the spectrum. It is thought to bolster the strength of the spirit, aid in purifying the soul, bring out truth, spirituality, faith, serenity, and hope, break the chain of evil spells, hexes, and curses and protects against evil influences. In the case of health care workers, white symbolizes freshness, rebirth, cleanliness, and purity with fosters faith and serenity in patients. It represents virtue, virginity, and chastity, which is why brides are often married in a white gown. While most cultures around the globe use white to represent purity and innocence, only a few consider it a negative color.
What white represents around the world:
China: White is color of bereavement, grief, and sorrow and brides are forbidden to wear the color in wedding ceremonies.
India: Married women do not wear white; it symbolizes misery and is considered a harbinger of bad luck and misfortune in her marriage and family. However, Indian brides often wear white wedding gowns with a small splash of vibrant color. In the Hindu religion, white represents sattva, or the Pure Consciousness of the spirit.
Druids: Baptism was represented by the color white and Druid priests often wore white to symbolize purity.
Scandinavia: The Goddess of Death wears white to symbolize the circle of life.
Aztecs: White symbolizes dusk (the dying of the light of day) and night.
Mayans: White depicted vigor, health, well-being, and serenity.
Christians: Marriage, First Communion, Baptisms, Acolytes, Candles, and First Confirmations (a ritual for adolescents) are always represented with white because it denotes purity of the soul, goodness, uprightness, piety, and virginity. In the Roman Catholic faith, white symbolizes the saints.
Celts: The Goddess of the Earth (terrestrial goddess) was always depicted wearing white.
Buddhism: Seen as redemptive color, white is often used to denote the soul's spiritual journey to a higher dimension and the transformation from an earthbound spirit trapped in bondage to an enlightened soul.
Military: White is color of ceasefire, peace, or capitulation.
Greek: White is representative of all aspects of human life.
Roman: White was a formal color usually worn at special occasions to represent pomp and circumstance.
In Most Cultures: White is a universal color of the higher consciousness, reverence, and respect.
Pearl is considered the Tenth Ray of God.
Pink:
The pale version of this color may dispel evil, attract love, strengthen moral and ethics, boost trust and loyalty in friendships, and increase success. However, bright pink is used in opponent's locker rooms to sap energy and kill liveliness. Light a pink candle to throw love and romantic thoughts to another person.
Pink (along with Orange) is considered the Eleventh Ray of God.
Red:
This color may excite, heighten aggression, bring love and passion, augment physical strength and vitality, stimulates the appetite and aids in sexual circumstances. It raises blood pressure, quickens breathing, and speeds up the heartbeat. Red cars are stolen more often and also receive more traffic tickets than cars of other colors. Deeper shades of red are said to heal wounds, cuts and scars; eradicate cancers (though it is not proven); aid in curing depression; draws money and luck in finance and gambling; and helps blood circulation. However, those with high blood pressure, are stressed out of overly anxious, or have anger management problems should not wear red or be around people wearing red. In addition, red is the color of the 1st chakra, the base of the spine, the gem Ruby, iron, and the planet Mars.
According to an article in the Star Tribune, October 15, 2002, a study at the University of Washington in Louisville concluded that natural redheads have a "defective receptor" for the pigment melanin, which is key in tanning the skin. The melanocortin-1 receptor within brain cells reacts negatively with an associated reactor in the brain, causing a heightened sensitivity to pain. In addition, redheads also require up to 20% more anesthesia than other people with other hair colors. Source: Associated Press. Redheads may require 20% more anesthesia. Star Tribune, 2002 October 15: A5(col. 1)
For centuries, this color has been said to represent immoral behavior (i.e. red colored dresses were only worn by "women of ill repute" in the old west) and is sometimes used in the occult. Many cultures and religions do not use candles in this color due to its negative connotations. Caveat: While this color may be successfully used in rituals that impart spells, the danger may be great should the user not be fully protected from or aware of the ramifications of putting out such incantations meant to harm or destroy another entity. Any person creating a hex to directly harm another entity should be aware that spells have an uncanny tendency to come back to the sender three-fold.
Considered the First Ray of God. Associated with Aries
Orange:
May bolster concentration, assist in digestion, versatility, boost immunity to viruses, attraction to another person, stimulate the senses, and encourage strength. Those who have been "down in the dumps" may well find benefit in painting a room this color or lighting an orange candle in a comfortable room, but must be used sparingly by easily angered or anxious people. It is also an appetizing color. Flip on an orange light bulb to increase expended energy.
Considered the Second and Eleventh Ray of God.
Yellow:
Ah, the color of pure sunshine. This hue is considered a beacon for positive persuasion (i.e. should be worn by a woman who wants her husband to buy her a new bauble of some sort), romantic attraction, happiness, confidence, and charm. In addition, this color has the knack of changing negative circumstances into positive ones, bolsters concentration and the intellect, and accelerates metabolism. However, yellow also causes tempers to flair. Light a yellow candle for knowledge.
Considered the Third Ray of God.
Green-Yellow:
As beautiful as this color may be, it can create feelings of envy, illness, and spinelessness, incite arguments and aggression and give the wearer a really bad shot of the "blahs."
Green:
In some schools of thought, green is considered to be the choice of geniuses. It may attract money, pacify teething babies, grow good healthy crops and robust plants, soothe aches and pains, good luck, prosperity, and fertility. At one time, brides wore green to symbolize fertility. Now, green signifies a hearty sexual appetite, the Heart Chakra, peace, morality, conservatism, and immortality. In addition, this color is great for healing the mind (mental disorders), body (broken bones and torn tissues and ligaments), and spirit (emotional balance); digestive problems (think leafy green vegetables and therapeutic green light); and discourages suicides and mental health problems. Amazingly enough, people who practice astral projection use green as a tool to travel into the past.
Emerald Green is considered the Fourth Ray of God.
Celery Green (along with Violet) is considered the Eighth Ray of God.
Beige and Gold:
This is a bad color for a car. Statistically, Beige or Gold cars are involved in more accidents, perhaps because they are harder to see at dusk and dawn. However, when Gold is worn is a hearty rich color that attracts wealth. Illness does not have a fighting chance when gold light is used as a therapeutic tool. This color also fortifies the spirit.
Gold is considered the Twelfth Ray of God.
Light Blue:
May instill understanding, harmony, and peace in familial and romantic situations. This color reflects health, protection from evil, serenity, happiness, ensures a heightened sense of perception and bolsters patience. Those who are interested in delving deeper into the realm of lucid dreaming may want to wear this color to bed.
Blue:
This color may help stop bleeding; soothe tense nerves; usher in tranquility, calm, and genuineness; lower a fever; protect the emotional balance of the spirit; and heal burns of all kinds. Be warned: an overload of blue will leave one feeling melancholy and depressed. Light a Blue candle to strengthen the soul or for assistance in a spiritual dilemma.
Blue is considered the Fifth Ray of God.
Blue-Green is considered the Ninth Ray of God.
Dark Blue (Indigo):
Although many people look fabulous in this color, its connotations may be quite disturbing. It has the power to depress the mind and spirit, create a sense of impulsiveness (i.e. shoppers should never wear this color to their favorite store…especially if they have champagne taste on a beer budget), send out bad luck or clumsiness, and may create moodiness. It does not stimulate the appetite (why do you think fresh foods are not blue but rotten food is?)
Considered the Sixth Ray of God.
Purple:
This color is considered a royal color and is sometimes used in meditation or astral projection as a protection from malevolent spirits. Basically, purple lends to its wearer ambition, pride, success, all types and forms of power, and boosts willpower. Purple also eases aches and pains; soothes mental problems and opens up a communication between the spirit and mind; and may aid in lessening the effects of epilepsy, brittle or diseased bones, and rheumatism. To a more, shall we say, person of evil mindset, this color will usually revolt them deep down in their souls. Not always, but sometimes.
Violet is considered the Seventh and Eighth Rays of God.
Lavender:
This color is instrumental in burning off bad karma from past lives. It also aids in healing a damaged soul and bringing about equilibrium. Great for meditation, lavender light may help those who wish to become more enlightened and connect with the divine. Light a Lavender candle to mend the body and mind.
Brown:
Rich browns and sienna's look absolutely great on women, especially blonds. Unfortunately, this color harbors hesitation, especially in business and financial matters, saps energy and can cause feelings of uncertainty and doubt. In an aura, brown may denote a suffocating sense of self-loathing or self-doubt. Still, Christian monks have worn brown colored robes for centuries and it seems to work for them.
Gray:
This "non-color" represents neutrality, ambivalence, indecision, and carelessness.
Black:
Over the years there have been many arguments to the effectiveness and the dangers of the color black. For the sake of argument, we will break this discussion into two quadrants: wearing the color as opposed to using it as a candle.
Wearing Black: Many police officers, holy men and nuns wear black. It is the culmination of all the colors in the prism and for that, it holds great power. Wearing this color seems to denote authority, wisdom, intelligence, reverence, social status, and a higher sense of self. It is also very sliming and classic.
Lighting a Black Candle: This action may summon evil, or the very sense of it, represent sorrow, gloom, or failure, boost a confused mindset or cause great discord within the home. Many left-hand path occult practitioners use black candles in their rituals.
