Color Correspondences


Color Correspondences Cover
Colors are important not only for their associations with the quarters, but for various magickal uses. Colors can be an important aid to the successful working of magick, to divining physical disease, to the interpretation of dreams, to meditation, etc., but only if you are a visually oriented person. For others, especially the blind and the color-blind, color can be totally irrelevant.

The general meanings (and magickal uses of) for the family groupings are as follows:

YELLOW: Clairvoyance, Divination, Studying, Learning, The Mind
ORANGE: Strength, Authority, Attraction, Luck
RED: Sexual Love, Passion, Energy, Enthusiasm, Courage
PINK: Emotional Love, Friendships
BLUE: Healing, Meditation, Tranquility
GREEN: Healing, Money, Prosperity, Luck, Fertility
WHITE: Protection, Purity, Truth, Blessings, Silence, Realization
BROWN: Physical Objects, Healing of Animals, House and Home
BLACK: Absorption/Destruction of Negativity, Removal of Hexes, Hatred, Evil
PURPLE: Power, Healing Deadly Diseases

The color wheel really has no hard divisions between colors and in nature colors blend subtly from one "family" to another. Therefore:
