Colour is everywhere. It is vibrating energy. It is visible (sometimes in scary ways!) to the majority of people. Although there are those who are ‘colour-blind’, they are apparently still influenced by the vibrational levels their retinas pick up from various colours and translate to their brain (more on that another time).
There are literally hundreds, and possibly thousands, of books on the market referring to colour for various reasons: colours for healing, colours to make you look thin (I wish!), colours that flatter, colours that do not flatter, colours that make you angry, colours that make you happy, colour therapies at spas, light therapy for skin conditions and the list goes on ad infinitum.
I’ve written this brief article to focus on ‘how colour could possibly affect your date’ and, YES, it could! (To make your life simpler, I’ve included a little ‘introductory’ table of colours and their ‘meanings’ with this article.)
Whatever colour YOU are wearing is affecting you! Example: wearing black ‘makes you look thin’. Yeah, right! Face it – if you’re not thin, wearing black won’t help you achieve it! No need to panic though – there are many ways to ‘disguise’ the parts of us we prefer others do not notice and, at the same time, many ways to ‘enhance’ the areas we prefer to be noticed. But, that’s for another article, another day as well.
So, let’s say you wear a ‘happy’ colour like yellow for your date. You love yellow, it reminds you of sunny days, summer, freedom, feeling ‘alive’. This is an excellent choice for you as it will automatically put you in a happy frame of mind as it ‘triggers’ memories or connections that make you feel positive.
On the flip side, let’s say you detest the colour purple. It reminds you of a teacher in public school who wore a purple coat while supervising recess. One day you fell and skinned your knee. You went to the teacher for help. The teacher brushed you off, was not sympathetic and sent you back to play while you were in pain. Now, purple has a trigger for you. (At least, in this case, you are aware of why you don’t care for the colour so you can work on dealing with that if you choose to.)
For you, wearing purple on a date would not be a wise thing to do – it will not put you in your best frame of mind and the date will not go as well as it might have if you wore yellow.
Yellow may not feel ‘happy’ to everyone. And, it depends on the shade or tone of yellow as well. A lemon yellow has a different effect than the ‘caution’ yellow you see on road signs. Some tones or shades match different skin colourings better than others. TIP: try holding different solid colour clothing articles in front of you just under your chin in natural lighting. Some will look excellent and some will definitely make you look sickly. Try the same experiment using fluorescent lighting and notice the difference in how the colours appear.
The colour you wear makes an instant impression on each person you come in contact with whether in person or through a medium such as television. Have you ever noticed that newscasters and announcers tend to wear dark, subdued colours. Why is that? Because it promotes a sense of trust and authority of that individual.
Why are hospital rooms painted green or a shade of green (not so true anymore but common in the past)? Because green is a relaxing, healing, balancing colour.
Why do each of the holidays associated with colours use the ones they do? Christmas: green/red; Easter: purple/yellow; Halloween: orange/black. I don’t actually know the answer to that one! If you do, please let me know.

April Braswell, Relationship Coach Par Excellence! I had been stuck in a relationship that was going nowhere with a man who did not love me and who did not make me happy.... April gave me the confidence to HOPE that there was someone out there who would love me and accept me for who I was. She held my hand thoughout the whole the experience, or I would never gone online....I was too skittish about the whole deal. In fact, I told her, "April, I have already met all the single men in the Metro area in my age agroup. There's no one out there for me that I am interested in! But April's warmth, encouragement, and compassion challenged me to venture online. I did and enjoyed a number of good results. I had some good dates. This was good. But still...I had not met THE one. Then she encouraged me to try another service...and within several weeks...I met Marc. We're in love. April coached me me even through the rough spots of the the developing relationship...I don't know how I would have done it without her! She is a shoulder to cry on when you need that, and a kick in the butt when you need that, too. Marc and I are moving in together and plan to marry. April, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU......I love you!!! Sonya Lenzo, www.sonyamlenzo.com
