Everything around us emits a certain vibration, sound and frequency, including the entire colour spectrum, and the zodiac signs’ colours could be one of the ways for them to unlock their best selves. Research shows that colour therapy or chromotherapy even uses colour and light to treat certain mental, emotional and physical health conditions and can be traced back to ancient Egypt. So it isn’t all that far-fetched that the colours you wear and surround yourself with could contribute towards your well-being. Let’s dive in and take notes on the zodiac signs’ colours and also understand a little bit of the ‘why’ behind them:
Aries: Red
Your fiery energy would work wonders with a dash of grounding and a lot of awareness. Hence, red could be your go-to, as long as it is not something you drench yourself in. A few accents here and a few splashes there in your wardrobe or your personal space are all you need to fuse its anchoring vibe in your life. Pro-tip: Try a classic deep red instead of a brighter red to enhance its power of planting you in your present while you get busy creating your ideal life.
Taurus: Green
Enhance your earthy nature and combat your need to always be in control with your favourite shade of green. It is the colour of your heart centre and of course, nature—what a wonderful symbolism to stay true to your lush path and embody the idiom ‘slow and steady wins the race’. Make sure you have some greens surrounding you or on you in the form of plants or prints.
Gemini: Yellow and white
Appease your twin personalities with a sunshine yellow or white, or a mix of both. Imbibe the vivacity of the sun with yellow and feel as cool and still as the ocean breeze with white. Who says you can’t have it all?
Cancer: White and blush
It’s white and blush all the way to the finish line for you. You are a moonchild and Mama Moon’s very own white will work its magic with you while helping you channel those zen vibes to think and communicate with clarity. Blush tones help you keep your heart wide open and also wear it on your sleeve in true Cancerian style.
Leo: Orange, yellow and gold
Shades of orange and yellow or gold are colours that can support you splendidly. While you are confident, you can feel a bit overbearing and any shade of orange will help you bring forward your cheerful demeanour and align with things that bring you joy over things that logically feel right. Balance the two and you are good to go.
Virgo: Blue and silvery white
Your need for perfection can tend to make you feel a lot more self-critical than most, stopping you in your tracks as the world passes by. While life is not a race, try seeking some solace in the entire spectrum of blues and silvery white to break free of the box and trust yourself a tad more.
Libra: Pink
Pink tones, especially the lighter ones, or perhaps even rose gold, are sure to make you feel like a god/goddess. Throw in some pillows, put on a shirt or scarf, or better yet, make your screensaver this colour to envelope yourself in the cushy vibes that this package brings along. It will allow you to trump your indecision with empathy.
Scorpio: Black and grey
Black and dark grey with hints of silver amplify your mysterious demeanour and reflect your personality in its truest sense. Much like when a seed is planted, all it sees is the darkness around it, you, Scorpio, thrive in the murkiest waters of life and never take a challenge as an end in itself. Your power colours support you in all this and more; perhaps even help you weave in your signature magnetic charm in all you do.
Sagittarius: Orange, yellow and purple
Fiery orange and yellow with a dash of purple in the mix is the perfect recipe for your lucky potion, Sag. While the fiery colours fan your adventurous and freedom-loving spirit, hints of purple can help you remember a sense of connection to your purpose, making you a trailblazer instead of a wild forest fire.
Capricorn: Brown, ochre and grey
Think of a mountain goat climbing a steep barren cliff and you have your colours waiting to be embraced: earthy browns and ochres strung together with hints of greys. Not only do you work hard, stay grounded and remain persistent, but you also never fail to generously sprinkle some wisdom and experience into whatever you do. These earthy hues help you personify these traits brilliantly.
Aquarius: Blue and green
The name suggests it all; think aqua and you have your colour palette right there: fresh, vibrant blues and sea greens. Sounds a lot like the Maldives, right? Your idealistic views of life can be brought to life with just a gentle touch of emotions. These colours help you channel your vision like tributaries stemming from a river and there you are, holding it all together at the source.
Pisces: Deep blue and sea
If you were a mermaid marvelling at the sea life around you, what colour would bind it all together? Yes, a deep sea blue and perhaps even lighter shades of seafoam green when you catch a glimpse of the sun gleaming through the magical waters. While a deep blue powers your imaginative mind keeping your focus inward, seafoam green helps you channel your deepest desires in the most magical ways, helping you dive deep within and create outward.
