Your Favorite Color

Rin ~*gently points up to my first post*~
"WHY do we find ourselves drawn to a single dominant / preferred color?"
Any thoughts you'd like to share on that question?

My very first favorite color as a child was green. I remember thinking that everything looks so much better with green and if everything had to just have one color added to it, it should be green. I was probably 3-4 years old. I really loved green and my green blanket that I had. My favorite color now is pink though, mostly for clothing purposes. I don't wear a lot of green.

Why do we like chocolate, spring weather, kisses .... it makes us feel good, feels right.

Some love black, some don't....i feel it drains me or blocks energy

is there a personality type for a specific color//good question.... or is it a reflection of our aura (wouldn't surprise me)

Good question!! I've never really thought about "why" I prefer certain colours!

My personal favorite colours are:

Black - I find it oddly soothing and protective.
Purple - almost all shades- from pale lilac, to deep amethyst - I guess it has always made me feel peaceful (the 2 houses I have owned in my life, the living room in both were painted a pale lilac...)
Red - Feels empowering, energizing (maybe because I'm a Sagittarius, which is a fire sign!!)
Bright sky blue - This colour lifts my spirits, makes me feel....hopeful???

I have always been drawn to green even as a child. I like most shades of green, but deep dark forest green is one of my favorite shades of green.

This is an interesting link where people are divided into "four season types".

I am a winter type and always wear cool colours. My favourite colour is an electric blue-green but I wear most shades of green (except lemony green) and blue (except petrol wich is grey-blue).

This link contains a study of the psychological effects of colours.

Blue keeps flies away.

Then there are the auric colours. There are many sites on the internet about the colours of the aura. One site mentioned that people with a lot of blue may have dental problems.

I've always liked white, because white is clean!

i like yellow. why? it makes me feel happy.

I love a deep forest green. I think one reason is its the color of most of the males eyes in my family as well as my own, also I find it calming and rejuvenating. I also love crimson red. This color makes me feel bold and powerful.

Well there was a period in my life where I needed to be more grounded and actually I remember being drawn to the colour brown at the time.
Now I really like purple and pink too.
