Great gift by God, colors are involved in daily life of ours. Colors are so universal in our daily life that we often take them for-granted. Has any one of you imagined life without colors? It would be in-fact all black and white. But wait, black and white are also colors, isn’t?
Our emotions, feelings and frame of mind are all associated with colors. Upon passing through a prism white light (polychromatic light) splits or disperses into seven colors of light, each having its own characteristic frequency and behavior. Difference in frequencies or vibrations means diverse magnetic effects by each color. Have you ever felt charmed because of any color? Have you ever thought that why some colors are your comforting partners?
Our body contains all the colors in perfect equilibrium as are minerals and vitamins. Disturbance of this balance can cause malfunctions and lead to onset of anxiety and other diseases. Hence colors are pillars of healthiness and happiness; they are healers and nourishers that create and stimulate varied responses in us. You might have listened about other miracles, but the miracles of light are mightier than anything listened or observed. Being at peace is the most desired thing by any person existing on the earth and colors are peacekeepers. They create calmness and rest in your soul. Why a person becomes happy upon seeing a rainbow? You know the answer.
