Impact of Colours on the Human Mind

Colour, if it is simply stated according to its definition, is broken down white light. Light travel at us from different directions and different wavelengths and each of these wavelengths of light are perceived as a separate colour in our visible spectrum. Every object around us tend to absorb or reflect these wavelengths, so when we see a sky-blue colour, it is the blue wavelength that is being reflected while all the others are being absorbed by the object. 

We as humans can feel and perceive colour. How or what we perceive about it varies from every person to person. Some colours of the visible spectrum give us a sense of serenity and calm; these usually lie in the blue side of the spectrum-consisting of purple and green too, also known as the cool shades. These types of colours are especially suited for your meditation place and go hand in hand really beautiful and calming arts for sacred places. 



On the other side of the spectrum, the colours can induce rage and make us feel uncomfortable and agitated, or they might also signify burning passion; these lie within the reddish side of the spectrum-which includes orange and yellow, usually known as the warm shades.

The perception of colour perception is a very subjective agenda, and certain colours can have a very universal significance. This is coded into our survival instincts, giving us that feeling of fire being dangerous and the beach being relaxing.
