Colours carry energy which we can draw to us by focusing on
specific colours, or we can base our meditation on the colours which surround
us. The link to our 'Blue Page' will demonstrate the use of colours in meditation.
We may like to meditate using the colours in the following chart. If we select
or 'click on' the 'colour name' column, we will open a page of that colour.
We should select a colour in the same way that we should select a crystal.
We should allow ourselves to be drawn to the energy of the colour which we need.
We should not analyse the 'meaning' of the various colours and attempt to select
the colour that we think that we need.

If we are unsure which color we need to meditate with, we can select a color
at random, or allow the universe to select a color for us, either by closing
our eyes and using whichever color appears, or by using the random color selection
button below.

We are each an individual and we will often perceive colours differently. If
we are blue green colour blind for example, we may perceive a colour as green,
when someone else will perceive the colour as blue. The technically correct
description of a colour is not important, it is our individual perception of
colours which is important, and all that is important, to us as individuals.
Often, if we only have a mild form of colour blindness, we may be unaware that
we see colours differently than other people. We may have even argued about
colours.The Ishihara colour blindness test is available on the internet using
the following link. The link button is in itself a test, and 'normal' vision
will see a 5 rather than a 2.
The Color quiz is partially based on research by Dr. Max Lûscher during the
early 1900's. He has devoted his life to the study of how color affects behaviour
and has been hired by some of the world's largest companies as a consultant.
The test itself is based upon fundamentals in color psychology. With years
of research by color psychologists the characteristics of certain colors has
been identified to cause an emotional response in people. This was done by studying
the response from hundreds of thousands of test subjects around the world in
order to isolate how certain colors make us feel. By doing the reverse, using
the colors people prefer to determine how people feel, we can get some interesting
indicators about a person's current emotional state.
It is important to understand that the results from tests like this can be
both short-term and long-term in their meaning. For example, if you are feeling
depressed about something when you take the test you may see this reflected
in your results. You may also notice deeper conflicts showing themselves consistently
if you take the test time and time again. This test can be taken quite often
and still yield results that are accurate. The results will not be the same
each time you take the test, for the most part, unless you are taking them without
some time interval between them.
