Colors and moods
Colors exert a subtle action on our emotions by stimulating or soothing them, making us happy or saddening us.

The white, in the West as in the East, by the totality of the colors it encompasses, symbolizes life and its completion. Gold, symbol of the sun and royalty, was among the ancient Greeks, associated with the idea of immortality, as the myth of the Golden Fleece tells. Green, in the Irish tradition, is the color of Tir Nan Og, the island of eternal youth. Purple is a mystical color that often serves as a medium for meditation, it unites the energy of red and the sanctity of blue. But it can also evoke sadness as recalled by the nymph Echo, who yearned for Narcissus. Written by David
