that's an interesting one, you've also got to bear in mind that colour associations vary alot from culture to culture.

In the Western world black = mourning, in the Eastern and African World white = mourning. Very awkward!

Hmmm... :roll: seems to me someone you correspond with regularly actually wrote a book dealing with this very thing... now who what that? :roll:

Of course, you could also look up Richard Webster's AURA READING materials as well :wink:

a thought for you, have a browse through the Mind, Body and Spirit section of a bookshop for anything one magical colour correspondences. There should be plenty of them and they might give you a nudge in the right direction.

Books about 'Auras' might be useful.

I remember having "You Are Rainbow"--by Nora Hills way back, when. It had quite a bit of information concerning Auras. I believe that the use of a pendulum was also discussed. At any rate, Metaphysical Bookshops might be where you want to start checking.

For solid psychology, The Luscher Colour Test by Max Luscher is a good place to begin. The book came out in the '70s and can be found quite cheap second-hand. In it Luscher discusses the meaning of the eight psychologically basic colours (red, blue, green, yellow, brown, purple, grey, black) singly and in combination.

The traditional occult colour correspondences agree well with Luscher's psychological interpretations. I would say this shows the validity of the underlying theories -- this really is how the human brain works when thinking about colours.

If you want to try the Luscher Colour Test for yourself, go here:
http://www.saunalahti.fi/jawap/colour/colortest.html
Decide which is your favourite colour and click on it, then your favourite of what's left, and so on. You MUST think of the colours just as pure colours, NOT as if trying to decide on clothes or wallpaper or cars or any other particular objects.
When you've gone through all the colours, you'll be asked to do it again. This is not a memory test. Don't deliberately try to duplicate your previous answers. On the other hand, don't deliberately be different. Answer as if you never did it before.

The test is so quick and easy to take that you might be surprised at how deeply it probes. One thing to remember is that the answers apply to you only in the here and now, not necessarily as permanent aspects of your personality.

Now Robbie, that was very scarily accurate. I'm impressed. :D

well apparently according to mine, I feel that the only way to get to what I want is to sleep with the boss (that's obviously the not so accurate part)
