We are all psychic, but to varying degrees. Even psychic abilities face logical limitations; some people are just more sensitive, more sensitive in different ways, and more talented than others. Anyone can run, but some people run faster, longer, and with more grace than others. With training you can improve and maximize the psychic skills you have, just as you improve your speed, endurance and grace as a runner.
Sometimes psychic abilities remain dormant until a specific triggering moment, such as a near-death experience, or are discovered through concentrated efforts in meditation and mindfulness. There is also a wide range of talents, from simple intuition to channeling other entities to communicating with animals and so on.
This article discusses how different colors affect psychic and spiritual energy.
Psychic color connections
The most common connection between color and psychic or spiritual energy is related to the chakra system. There are seven chakras, or energy centers, in the design of the human body, and each chakra is assigned a color:
- Root chakra (red color)
- Sacral Chakra (orange color)
- Solar plexus chakra (yellow color)
- Heart chakra (green color)
- Throat chakra (blue color)
- Third Eye Chakra (Indigo Color)
- The Crown Chakra (violet color)
Each chakra governs an aspect of human energy:
- Root chakra (security/finance)
- Sacral chakra (sexuality/pleasure)
- Solar Plexus Chakra (personal power/energy engine)
- Heart chakra (health/love/relationship)
- Throat chakra (self-expression)
- Third Eye Chakra (Intuition/Personal Wisdom)
- The crown chakra (connection to the divine)
Black and white
Black is the absence of color, which rules mystery, negativity and intensity. White is all colors combined, and the color of perfection, purity, innocence and wholeness.
Using color to enhance psychic and spiritual energy
If you choose to wear certain colors, paint your rooms certain colors, or drive a certain colored vehicle, you can direct your psychic and spiritual energy in specific ways. The different shades of all colors modulate the essential energy, so as you read about the core meanings below, realize that darker shades intensify, while pastels make the energy subtler and softer.
Red (the Root Chakra: Safety)
We often think of red as a color of action, but in our society, the most common sighting of red is stop signs and traffic lights. Red represents the basic energy we need to survive. Wearing red, having a red room or driving a red car represents basic survival psychic energy that you want to strengthen by having that color frequency on or around you.
Orange (the sacral chakra: sexuality)
We tend to think of red when we think of passion, but orange is actually the color of sexuality and pleasure. After all, it is the color between red and yellow. The next time you go out for a date or decide to romance your partner, carry some orange on your person. Color frequencies, like sound frequencies, emit energy that you can tap into, but that also attracts those around you. Think about some orange tones in your bedding or somewhere in your bedroom.
Yellow (the solar plexus chakra: life energy)
Remember, we have a yellow sun; and in American comic book mythology, Superman is the most powerful superhero in the DC Comics universe, drawing his power from our yellow sun. The yellow color, worn or present around us, energizes our psychic field and can be used to increase our energy when we need more of it, either in a strong burst or over a longer period of time.
Green (Heart Chakra: Love)
Although green is often associated with the earth and can be a color that applies to stability, it is an energy color for health and well-being. Our health and well-being are usually strongest when we have loving relationships in our lives. Green can be a great color to wear when going out with friends, entertaining guests or spending time with family. Choosing green jewelry or clothing, paint for walls, or the color of your car indicates a need and desire to share healthy psychic energy.
Blue (throat chakra: self-expression)
Blue has a huge range when it comes to our emotions, which often stimulate our self-expression. By wearing a blue item or clothing, you can tap into psychic energy that supports your voice and authenticity. If you want to have a difficult, honest or difficult and honest conversation, wearing some blue can help. If you have to give a presentation or talk about something, blue is the color you want to resonate on your body.
Indigo (third eye chakra: intuition)
Indigo is the color to connect to your inner wisdom, while violet is the color to connect to divine, outer wisdom. Apply indigo to your person or in a room if you want to work on meditation to gain insight. This color is often best used privately as a frequency to turn inward, rather than as a color that wears out in public. If you wear it in public, hidden under outer clothing or inconspicuously is probably ideal.
Violet (Crown Chakra: connection to the divine)
Violet is often associated with the color of royalty, signifying people who were closer to the divine than the rest of the population. Royalty aside, the color violet is a powerful color, blending red and blue (the Root and Throat Chakras) and reminding us of our role as spiritual beings having an incarnate experience. Wear violet and stay close if you want the wisdom of the spirit to enhance your psychic abilities.
Black (Knowledge)
While villains wear the black hat, the absence of color is necessary to appreciate the energy of the colors. Color energy is not complete without honoring its absence and the necessity of that absence from time to time. It’s about endings; and we wear the color when our psychic energy is reeling from an emotional blow (such as the death of a loved one) or we need to absorb the color energy of others so that their negativity does not affect us.
White (innocence)
Finally, white is the combination of all colors. Wearing this color represents a desire to tap into the psychic energy needed to cleanse our energy field and heal any psychic damage or rifts that may harm us or others. In psychic healing work, it is very common to imagine white light entering your crown chakra and moving through all the other chakras to cleanse and reset your energy field.
Merge colors
Very rarely do we wear only one color, and most of the time we don’t wear color consciously: “Today I wore what was clean.” This article was written to suggest that you need to think more consciously about color, especially if you are doing something important or new. Selectively choosing colors to present yourself to another person or group, or simply to do your own work, can be yet another way to strengthen your psychic energy and get the most out of it.
