VIBRATIONS OF COLOURS

Colours are recognised as vital forces in shaping our behaviour, as we are living in the colourful wolrd, reacting to the vibra tions of colours. In fact our body is composed of the seven primary colours of the solar specturm (Rainbow)VIBGOYRViolet, Indigo, Black, Green, Orange, Yellow and Red. Besides these seven primary colours, there are some other colours which are formed by mixing two or more colours. Dificiency or excess of one of the colours in our body causes certain diseases related to that colour, and indicates the changes in our moods and manners.

Colours are linked with the five elements of the nature Fire, Air, Earth, Water and Space and the seasons in the year. Each planet and each sign of the Zodiac is assigned a specific co lour. Similarly the metals, food grains and gems etc., are also known by colours. The importance of colour therapy is gaining significance. These facts emphasise the importance that colours play in our daily life. The apparent colour of an object depends upon the wave length of the light that its reflects. Sometimes the choice of a colour reveals our true colour.

You can guess the trends of your friends and relatives, if you find out their favourite colours. Some are fond of two or more colours and find it difficult to specify what colour they like best, and such persons may have mixed trends.
