Stumbled across this website yesterday, looking for something completely different. Isn't that how it goes, you find the best stuff when you are looking for something else. Completely loved the intro to the site...if you do nothing else you simply need to watch this intro..love the words, the colors, (well one would hope a site dedicated to color would do color well) even the music was amazing. There is a part of the site that allows you to view "your" color by entering your birth month and date..I've always been a bit skeptical on horoscopes and things that say they can tell you more about yourself by simply entering your birthdate..after all I wasn't the only person born on that day...and truly that paragraph of info is going to describe all of us born on the 24th day of the 4th month to a tee? I don't think so...
Not to say I don't read my horoscope or completely doubt these little tests that give you insight into yourself, one might say I'm just cautious, and yet curious...always wondering just how close they come to describing me. Very few come close, most are just fun to laugh at....and such is the nature of these things you can often read what you want in the words that are written.
So naturally I did check out what "my" color is, the one best suited to me (and all those other people born on my birthday) There are two colors actually, one for the month and then one for the day.. The color for April is Cayenne, Fiery, Energetic, Couragous. I love the colors that fall in the shades of red... much of my wardrobe consists of red, I truly love how that color looks on me. I stubbornly refused to budge on my "red" color choice for my walls, when all reasonable people around me were cautioning me not! to do it...Love! simply love my red walls.
now the words that go with that color...would love to be those things, not so sure I'm even close. The color for the day, the 24th day if you will....this color is Ultramarine, creative, responsible, nuturing... ummmm blue is perhaps not a favorite of mine, but those words did strike a chord, those I'm more comfortable saying I am. As I looked at the swatch of blue I sensed a calm, so perhaps I should explore adding some of this color to my world...maybe that is where the calm is hiding..
I think color can strike you in many ways, unique to each person, just as no shade of color is every truly the same.. I love yellow, it just makes me happy, when I painted my daycare room yellow, I was cautioned by many at it not being the best choice..one even saying "you know yellow makes kids hyper" great, the color is on the wall and now you tell me this.... I've not noticed an increase in hyperness in my house, and I do know that when I am in that room, I smile and I'm just simply happy...when out my window everything is dreary and cold.. i feel warm and light. I love putting color in my space, said by one who up until a year ago had white walls everywhere...what was I thinking? I can safely say that I have been making up for the lack of color in my space with a vegence...color is everywhere!
there is a line in the intro that I simply love it is...
......explore a world where magic is made visable.
love that...
