Effect of colors can be seen on our moods, way of thinking and health.

Scientists have done lot of research in this regard. It is observed that at times you like wearing bright colors, but at others you want to wear dull ones. All this is related to the effect that colors leave on a human being.

Colors we see are visible light energy of a certain wave lengths. The photo receptors in the retina, known as cones, translate this energy into colors. Retina of an eye contains, three kinds of cones viz. one for green, one for blue, and one for red. By combining these colors we perceive other colors. This energy of colors when it enters our body, it stimulates our glands, like pituitary and pineal glands. In turn, this affects the production of some other hormones which affects much physiological process. So this makes it clear why colors affect our moods, behavior, thoughts etc. Some Russian scientists, in 1942, showed that how a red light stimulates the sympathetic nervous system while white and blue light stimulated the parasympathetic nervous system. Research, all over the world has shown that many diseases have been cured by using different colors. It was observed that when patients suffering from diseases like smallpox and measles felt relief when they were kept in a room with red windows. Similarly depressions and pains were found responding well to the therapy using flashing lights and colored lights. Scientists believe that brain responds differently in the use of different types of colors. Therefore, lots of practioners all over the world are using variety of color related techniques for therapeutic purposes. So color therapy is a well-accepted technique, in complementary medicine, all over the world..

Any color that is applied to a specific area must be localized. Green, yellow and blue can be used generally. Red is never to be applied to the head region

Our body absorbs color energy through the vibration color gives off. All organs, body systems, and functions are connected to main energy centers. Through color we receive all the energies we need to maintain a healthy body, mind, and soul. When something goes wrong, or is out of balance, we can strengthen our energy centers through the conscious use of color.

Healing by means of color and light was the first type of therapy used by man. Through sun's rays man kept himself warm & colors of the flora fed him and accounted for his mood. Light consists of the seven color energies: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. Each color is connected to various areas of our body and will affect us differently emotionally, physically, and mentally.

Sun light contains the spectrum of all colors like - violet, Indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. Every color is connected to our different parts of our body and it affects us differently physically, mentally & emotionally. To know that how much each color has effect on us, we use different color on different part of our body so that they increase our efficiency & energy that we require.

When we wake up in the morning & do not have much energy to do our work. Then we go out for a walk, this gives us the exposure of sun to regain the energy of light to get ready for our daily work. This is where we see the power of colors that help us in regaining our lost energy through seven colors of the sun light. COLORS IN ASTROLOGY & VASTU As colors have great impact on our human body. So as per your horoscope Astrologers advise that which color is to be used during your particular (Dasha-Mahadasha) time period to get the best benefit of your planets. In the same way the Vastu Consultant advise the colors to be used in the interiors of your home as per the directions of the house & the lucky colors of the individuals residing in the house in relation with the rooms they residing. COLOR THERAPY Similarly, color therapy plays an important role in curing the different diseases. If we have any problem on any particular part of our body, we also give the rays of that particular color in order to heal that part of our body. But before taking the rays of that light we must know that for how much time and how much quantity do we require the rays of that particular color. For this we must consult a Color Therapist. In the same way, if we use a

particular color in a particular room, the light it reflects, effects on our body. This is we call Vastu Color Therapy. The chart shows the effect of different colors on different parts of our body, which should be applied as per given timings on particular part of our body. TIMINGS RED: 5-10 minutes. Never more than 10 minutes. ORANGE: 5-15 minutes, with 15 minutes used only for sinus problems. YELLOW: 15 minutes. As a nerve tonic 15 minutes is ideal. GREEN: 10-25 minutes. This is the only colour that can be applied at such length. BLUE: 5-15 minutes. Never over-expose around the head region. INDIGO: 10 minutes. For eye therapy usually 1-5 minutes is sufficient. VIOLET: 5-25 minutes. The only occasion for a 25-minute application of violet would be in treating sciatica, exposing only the back or sides of the body. PRECAUTIONS: We must take few precautions while applying these color rays on a particular part of body. Colors must be applied only to a specific area. It should not be generalized.

In the same way if we do not consult a Vastu Consultant for designing of your home interiors, it may lead to many health problems & you may not know the reasons. BACK

THE COLORS AND THE FIVE ELEMENTS OF NATURE COLOR AND ELEMENTS Color play a vital role in our life., but we rarely think about it. As we all know that sun is the chief source of colors. It contains the spectrum of all colors like - violet, Indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. It has such a subtle effect on our lives that we rarely give it a second thought. Color comes from daylight which contains all eight colors of the spectrum: red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, blue, violet and magenta. It is also a form of radiation. The five elements of nature as you all know are- Air, Fire, Earth, Water and Space. They are responsible for bringing all types of positive and negative energies. They generate these energies. These five elements are the powers or the essence of describing all material things in this world. These elements are also associated with , as told earlier, with- colors, directions ,different seasons and different body organs. For example -the element ,vizAir- is blue,It denotes north direction, autumn and effects lungs and the gall bladder . Water- is light blue and shades of green and white. It denotes the winter,the west and the liver. Fire -is associated with red color ,summer season, the south and the heart. Earth- which is at the center, stands for all shades of yellow, oranges or brown, mid-autumn etc. and the liver. Space-has no shape, it is colorless and occupies north-east direction. It effects mind and cells.

We have observed that a rainbow sighted in the east direction indicates fine weather, while if it is to the west it means rain will come. Similarly a red sky in the morning will foretell an afternoon shower, while a

red sky at night will mean a clear sky. A halo around the moon indicates wind. So we see that the colors effect ,not only our homes ,but whole universe is governed by these elements of nature. We need to be more observant and careful while choosing the colors.Different directions are associated with different planets & have different colors as per Astrology, they are given below:BACK
