Fabulously Cheeky

Back to the numerology of color again. The healing of the future will take much more advantage of vibrational medicine, such as homeopathy, hands on healing, color and sound therapy. Since color is vibration that can affect the energy of the body, knowing the quality of color is something we can use for our own healing, or to restore balance when we don’t feel good about ourselves.

The numerology of Peach adds up to 24/6, which means that there are communication issues (2), like lack of communication, or lack of cooperation combined with stubbornness (4) or a tendency to postpone things because of unrealistic expectations of self and others (6). 6 is the number of perfection – things have to be just right, or you fail! So, if you are not sure that you can be that perfect, it is better to keep your mouth closed. The only problem is that suppressing your communication is never going to create a perfect relationship with anyone. And if you postpone things out of fear that your actions aren’t going to be perfect enough, you are sure to get yourself into trouble.

One of the worst thing I can imagine is to have to work with someone who doesn’t communicate with me, and who postpones what needs to be done. This is often what happens when a company hires a bunch of incompetent people, and nobody cares if anything gets done. So, if you own a company and this describes your workers, the best option is to fire them all, of course. But if that is too drastic, you can always buy them peach t-shirts so they’ll stop dragging their feet, get the job done and start providing some customer service. If people start doing their best, there is no need for perfection.

Lavender is another color that has relationship issues. Numerologically, it adds up to 36/9. 3 indicates feelings of inadequacy, 6 shows a need for relationships and 9 shows a need to be loved. 3 also has to do with lack of self expression because of unrealistic expectations (6) in relationships, and 9 has to do with suppressed emotions.

It seems to me that we have become a culture where everyone is suppressed. We don’t talk to each other in relationships – out of fear – we don’t have any confidence, we don’t know how to express ourselves, we are afraid to be judged on what we do or say, we have fixed ideas, we think we have to be perfect, we think we are going to be abandoned if we are simply ourselves, and this makes us angry, which of course, we also have to suppress. It is no wonder that most people die from some kind of sickness. Sickness always happens from suppression or imbalance of some kind. Perhaps, if we took the chance to be ourselves without suppression, there wouldn’t be very much sickness at all!

In the case of lavender, there is meaninglessness and purposelessness of life. Why? Because when you stop expressing yourself creatively from fear of not being perfect enough, life does become meaningless. I know one person who battles depression on a regular basis because his mind is so critical that every great idea he comes up with is squished by his negative mind before it ever sees the light of day. So, he keeps wondering, what is the meaning of life… Why is he here… And he is in a state of waiting, for what he doesn’t know…

I see life as an opportunity. We come in with a blank slate, and it is up to each one of us to write something on that slate. Our destiny makes us experience certain things so we can learn the lessons we are here to learn, but how we learn those lessons is up to us. The problem is that if we are so afraid to live life that we can’t allow ourselves to make any mistakes, life does become meaningless, unfortunately. So when you find yourself depressed and gloomy, it is basically because you are not allowing yourself to be creatively you! And then, what happens? You go to the doctor and he will give you pills to suppress your depression further!!! Have you ever seen such lack of understanding? The real solution to depression is to stop listening to the negativity in your head, and join some kind of class that can get your creativity flowing again, because we are naturally creative beings. Suppression and depression are not natural states. So wear lavender, and become creative again, less critical, and more unconditionally loving.

If your boss is wearing rust, watch out! This color adds up to 15/6 which means that lack of self confidence (1) causes fixed ideas and rigid behavior (5) from unrealistic expectations of self and others (6). So, after taking one look at the rust outfit your boss is wearing, you know that working for this person is not going to be a picnic in the park! Most likely, you’ll end up in tears before the day is over, unless you are a perfectionist that can actually live up to those expectations. Since most of us mortals are far from perfect, it makes sense that rust is not usually a popular fashion color.

Therefore, if you find yourself very fixed, uptight and perfectionistic, rust will help you get more confidence (1) so you can begin to let go and become a little more flexible (5), and also a little more forgiving when it comes to lack of perfection in self and others (6), since there is actually more than one way to do things!

And, by the way, if you want to expand in consciousness so you can move from the third dimension, where everything is fixed (either white OR black, but not both at the same time), to the fourth dimension where the truth is a lot more complex (yes AND no, depending on your point of view), fixed ideas and rigid thinking won’t do. In the new Age of Aquarius, we have to be open to change and variety, which is the positive vibration of 5, and we also need to let go of any rigid ideas of perfection.

Another rigid color is Magenta, which adds up to 25/7. Here, we find communication issues (2) combined with a rigid attitude (5), and there is a need to control the environment from fear of abandonment (7). Isn’t it fascinating to see how many of these colors that have relationship, communication and abandonment issues? I can’t help but wonder if tribal people who don’t wear much clothes have similar issues? Probably not! I bet they are much healthier than any so called civilized people. So, do the issues relate to the fact that we cover our bodies with clothing? That in itself is a bit unnatural, isn’t it? Well, maybe I shouldn’t even go down that path, so back to the color Magenta.

The vibration of Magenta will help you communicate easier (positive vibration of 2) and make you more flexible in your attitude (positive vibration of 5), but the main effect of Magenta is to make you less needy from fear of abandonment (positive vibration of 7). Therefore, it will be a good color for meditation, because if you can find your lost connection to source, you won’t be needy at all.

Khaki is a bit uptight. Numerologically, it adds up to 22/4, which has to do with communication issues out of balance. Either, there is too much communication, as in confrontation, or there is not enough communication, as in suppression. The foundation (4) is shaky and there is lack of balance and a need to let go of control (4). So, if you are a control freak who either suppresses what you want to say, or you get into people’s faces too much, you need khaki to mellow you out a bit, especially if you are in a position of power at work. Khaki will help you be less high strung and intense, and your employees will breathe a sigh of relief…

Lime Green – I love the way lime green looks, even though I can’t wear it. Numerologically, it adds up to 52/7. This combination of numbers indicates a person who restricts herself (5) through service to others (2) from fear of abandonment (7). This stops the person from moving forward, in other words, it signifies stuckness (5).

To turn this around, the person needs to find their connection to source (7) so that they can overcome their fear of abandonment (negative aspect of 7), and once that happens, they can communicate freely in their relationships (2), and live a life of change and variety (the positive side of 5) instead of restriction and stuckness. So, when you start feeling trapped in your relationship, lime green is the cure…

So, what is your favorite color? Is there any color you want me to talk about?

Burgundy is a bit of a sad color. Numerologically, it adds up to 39/12/3. The two 3’s show that there is a serious feeling of inadequacy, 1 has to do with lack of self-esteem, 2 is lack of communication and 9 is suppressed emotion and difficulty letting go. In other words, total suppression of the self in every way! The image that comes to me is just before the end of a dysfunctional relationship – your self-esteem has been destroyed, you can’t say anything because he won’t listen anyway, you feel like a failure, and yet, you are having such a hard time letting go! After 3 divorces, I know this feeling well…

This is when you need the vibration of burgundy. The other side of inadequacy is self-expression, which is the positive vibration of 3. The positive vibration of 3 will help you say what you need to say without being worried about whether he can hear you, or not. If you can express yourself, you get your self-confidence and self-esteem back, and then, you must surrender and let go, totally, and see what happens. Either he will hear you, and things will get better, or, you can walk off without looking back, knowing that whatever comes, you’ll find a way to deal with it, somehow…

So, when you are really down, and your relationship is, too, reach for burgundy and trust in the process of life. Remember, this, too, shall pass, and life goes on…

Pink is another color with sad undertones. Numerologically, it adds up to 23/5, which has to do with lack of communication in relationships and a sense of inadequacy which leads to stagnancy and inflexibility. Ghee! And I thought pink was a romantic color! This gives me the vision of the maiden in the tower, desparately holding on to her idea of the perfect prince coming to save her, even though she can’t communicate with him, and she doesn’t feel very good about herself. In more modern times, it probably means that you are stuck in a relationship that is as stale as an old piece of bread, where there is not really anything going on between the two of you, but you are too stuck, stubborn and rigid to want anything to change…

The positive vibration of 5 has to do with change and variety, so the 23/5 vibration can actually turn into change and variety in relationships through self expression and communication. So, wear pink, anytime you get that musty feeling in your life, and you need some change and variety in your relationship again. Pink will budge the stuckness and bring creativity and communication back into your life.

And, then there is plum, which is obviously in the same family as burgundy and pink. Plum adds up to 17/8, which has to do with fear of being true to yourself (1) from abandonment issues (7) which can lead to suppressed anger and frustration (8). What is going on here??? Are relationships nothing but prisons that we put up with because we all live in fear? It certainly doesn’t have to be like that!

The positive vibration of 1 has to do with finding yourself. Who are you? This is what we are here to find out, isn’t it? And, who you are has nothing to do with who you are with, by the way…
The positive vibration of 7 has to do with being connected to source, and feeling at one with the universe. It is only when we get the idea that the oneness is supposed to come from a relationship that we get in trouble. It has to come from source, and when that happens, you will also start trusting in the process of life itself. And, what does that do? It gives you power, which is the positive vibration of 8. Therefore, the vibration of plum can change your life. It can transform you from a needy person who is sacrificing herself, and suppressing her anger and frustration just to make sure her mate stays, to a powerful person who knows who she is, who has found her center and who is connected to source.

Oh, boy, the path is never easy, but the universe doesn’t care about whether we are comfortable or not in our personal journeys toward light, love and expansion. The only thing that matters is whether we get it, or not.

Grey is another color that is good for business. Numerologically, it adds up to 28/1, which is the same as beige, so you are talking pasive aggressive communication patterns, fear of speaking out (2) assertively (8) from fear of rejection from others which affects self confidence (1). Therefore, grey is another color that will help you communicate assertively and give you a sense of power and confidence.

I have never thought about it this way before, but perhaps all these somewhat boring colors are chosen for business, not because they are neutral and conservative, but because of their vibrational effect on the person wearing the colors. Perhaps we intuitively know these things, and the numerological values are simply confirming what we already know and making it more clear so that we can use this knowledge to our advantage.

Next, there is the numerology of multi colored. Multi adds up to 21/3, and colored adds up to 36/9. Add both together and you get 38/11, so now we are talking complicated. There is fear of speaking out (2) from lack of confidence (1), there are feelings of inadequacy (3) from expectations that are too high (6) and also a tendency to take on too much responsibility (6) while suppressing emotions (9). There is an ability to see how things should be (11), but a lack of power (8) to change the situation. In other words, we are dealing with issues of perfectionism.

Therefore, people who are attracted to multi colored garments are people who don’t have very high thoughts about themselves, (lack of confidence (1) and feelings of inadequacy (3)). They are trying to hide these feelings by suppression (9) and lack of communication (2). They have unrealistic expectations about how perfect they need to be, and they have the idealistic view that only the best is good enough (11), but they don’t have the power (8) to create the change that they desire.

By wearing multi colored clothes, the vibration will help them feel more confident and adequate without having to be perfect. It will help them express their feelings in relationships, and it will give them the power and courage to move towards their goals, even if they know that nothing is ever going to be perfect. The vibration of multi colored will allow the person to make mistakes without taking it personally or allowing defeat to ruin their confidence. So, the main benefit of multi colored clothes is to help take away the pressure to be perfect, and to start accepting that everybody has faults, and that it is ok not to be perfect.

Have you ever seen a perfect tree? Except for christmas trees that has been trimmed to be perfectly symmetric, you never see a tree in nature with totally symmetrical branches. But even though it is not perfect, it is still beautiful. If only we could see the same in people!

If even God doesn’t create perfection, what makes us think that we have to? The whole idea of perfection is simply a disease of the mind that we need to drop, because as long as this idea is there, how can we possibly be happy? We are always going to fall short, no matter what we do. So we must forget about perfection, because when perfection disappears, inadequacy and lack of confidence disappears, too, since those are simply the shadow side of perfection.

Beige is another good color for business. Numerologically, it adds up to 28/1. This means that there is a tendency for passive/aggressive communication patterns. There is fear of speaking out (2) assertively (8) from fear of rejection, which affects the self-confidence (1). By wearing beige, these issues can be overcome, so the color beige will actually help a person gain the confidence to speak out assertively. Knowing this, it makes sense that beige is another popular business color, since these are qualities that help you advance up the ladder. Combine the beige with an idealistic color, like black or white, and you’ll exude power, confidence and great ideas. By the way, this is probably a great way to dress if you are going for a job interview…

Tan, which is a slightly darker color than beige, simply adds up to 8, which means lack of power. So, if you are lacking in power, wear tan, and you’ll find your lost power again. 8 can also mean money, so tan is a good color for making money.

Brown has quite a different vibration than beige and tan. Numerologically, it adds up to 27/9. 9 has to do with suppressed emotions, 2 has to do with lack of communication, and 7 is fear of abandonment. So, when you are afraid that your relationship is going down hill fast, and you can’t say anything about how you are feeling for fear that your mate will get up and leave, brown is the color to wear. Brown will help you communicate your feelings and dampen the fear of being abandoned, and this is a good thing, because we always attract into our lives whatever we fear the most.

I have heard that brown is also considered a color that has a sense of familiarity associated with it – this is the same feeling you find in established relationships. It is therefore no wonder that a lot of menopausal women change from wearing black (the color of idealism) to brown (the color of frustrating, disappointing or somewhat shaky relationships). Menopause is a huge transition where unwanted wrinkles, sags and bags show up, extra pounds are harder and harder to get rid of, and let’s face it, we don’t feel as attractive as we used to. So, what is going to happen? Will our mate look for someone younger? He might, but then again, he might not. Perhaps he appreciates your inner qualities and isn’t obsessed with how many lines you have around your eyes. Or, maybe you just don’t know what is going to happen. So, when you find yourself facing the unknown while going through great transitions, the color brown will help you overcome the scary feelings of not knowing where you life is going next.
Tomorrow, I’ll talk about grey, multi colored and burgundy.

Green is normally seen as a healing color, but the numerology reveals what kind of healing it covers. The numerology of green adds up to 31/4, which means that inadequacy (3) and low self esteem (1) leads to procrastination, stubbornness and control issues (4). So, the healing vibration of green helps you feel more adequate, better self esteem and more in control of your life, without nessecarily dragging your feet or being in control of others. In other words, it brings you into a state of balance, and when there is balance, healing happens, but the healing we are talking about is mainly the healing of the self.

The numerology of blue adds up to 13/4, which is very similar to the issues that we see in the numerology of green – lack of confidence, lack of self esteem, control issues and procrastination. Now, blue is a color that has traditionally been used in business a lot, hence the name “blue-collar.” In business, you have to be confident and have lots of self esteem if you want to get anywhere, and if you start postponing things, you’ll most likely end up getting fired. Therefore, the color blue is good for business since it promotes confidence, self esteem and getting the work done.

Purple is considered a spiritual color which is also reflected in the numerological vibration. Numerologically, it adds up to 34/7. There is a feeling of inadequacy (3) and lack of control (4), which leads to vulnerability and a fear of abandonment (7). There is also pessimism (3), stubbornness (4) and a tendency for long term depression (7). So, basically, these are the states that can benefit from the vibration of the color purple.

So, by wearing purple, you’ll actually feel more confident, less stubborn and more connected to source. The fear of abandonment is simply the negative vibration of 7, and being connected to source is the positive vibration. This explains why purple is good for spiritual growth – it can turn loneliness, fear of abandonment and lack of trust into connection to source and trust in life. Relationships in the physical dimension come and go, but your connection to source is basically your connection to the deepest part of yourself, and a must for anyone on a spiritual path, because only your connection to source can fulfill you on a deeper level.

So, why do people eat too much? They feel like they have a big hole inside their beings that needs to be filled with something, preferably money or love, but if those are not available, food will do. The only problem is, that no matter how much you overeat, that nasty hollowness inside won’t go away. Why? Because what is needed is to find your lost connection to source again since the connection to source is the only thing that can fill the emptiness. So, if you are trying to lose weight, wear purple. If you allow the vibration of purple to nurture your being, you won’t be tempted to eat too much…
Tomorrow, I’ll write about beige, brown and tan.

The color red adds up to 18 which can be reduced to 9. 18 means that your personal power (8) is restricted from lack of confidence (1) which causes suppressed emotion (9). So, what does this mean? It basically means that whenever you are attracted to wearing red, you feel lack of confidence and lack of power, and you need a boost of energy to feel better. This is why red is considered a “power color.” It has a vibration that can give you confidence and make you feel more powerful so you can find the courage to express your emotions more freely. So when you are lacking power or confidence, or you can’t express your emotions, the color red can help you get your power back.

The color orange has a different vibration. The numbers of orange add up to 33 which can be reduced to 6. 33 has to do with martyrdom, or doing too much for others from too much expectation of self (6). So when you find yourself bending over backwards trying to please everybody in your life, you need orange to come to your rescue. Orange will help you draw the line when enough is enough, and help you say no when people want more from you than you are able to give. Orange has a very different energy than red, so it is a much softer kind of power.

Next, there is yellow, which adds up to 29/11/2 – same as the color white. White was mentioned in my last post; a very idealistic vibration where the focus is directed inwards from suppressed emotion (9) or difficulty in relationships (2). You can see how things are supposed to be without being able to change the situation (11), and it can also indicate self-blame. So, the next time you are sitting in the corner feeling sorry for yourself because your relationship is far from ideal, go and find something yellow to wear, and before you know it, the gloominess will lift and you’ll be able to find your sunny disposition again.

Therefore, knowing the numerological vibration of the different colors, can make a huge difference in your life. It can make you feel better, it can give you confidence, it can help you find your power, and so on. So, the color you choose to wear don’t just have to do with fashion, or what colors look good on you. It is so much more than just “skin deep.” The colors are like food for your energy field and can be used as “medicine” if you know how.
Tomorrow, I’ll talk about green, blue and purple.

Tags: numerology, what colors to wear

In numerology, every letter has a number from 1-9. If you add up the numbers of the word BLACK, you get 11. 11 is the idealist who can see what has to change, but isn’t always able to do so. There is a possibility for self blame if change can’t be created.

Now, let’s look at who wears black. Punks and teenagers love black. Why? Because they are idealists. They can see what should be, and they can see what isn’t. They want to change things, but they don’t know how. They rebel against what is, but can’t come up with better solutions. And, because they can’t change things, life can seem meaningless and pointless.
It is also interesting that black is the color that is used when someone dies. Perhaps it has to do with lack of acceptance of the situation, self blame, a perception of injustice, that it shouldn’t have happened, but they couldn’t change it? Anyway, black is seen as a soothing and appropriate color during heavy, sad times of transitions where people are experiencing things that are difficult to accept.
Imagine wearing pink, floral or fluorescent colors to a funeral? No, that won’t do. It doesn’t have the right energy, or the right depth for the situation. Black is better.
But what about white? White is used in places like India as the preferred color to wear for death. White, because all colors become pale before death happens. Just look at the hair, going from black to gray or white! In India, white is the color of death.

So, I added up the numbers of WHITE, and it is 29, which can then be reduced to 11, same as black, but with a slight twist. The 9 has to do with suppressed emotions, and the 2 has to do with difficulty in relationships. 11 is the same idealism as we see in black. So, for India to choose white as the color of death is interesting – it actually says something about their culture – it is more suppressed emotionally than ours, otherwise black would have been more appropriate. And they may have relationship issues that aren’t expressed. Well, that makes sense, since their partners are often picked by the parents, so they don’t have much choice in the matter. They just have to learn to live with whomever they end up with, and suppression of how they truly feel is a natural consequence.
Anyway, besides using the color white for death celebrations in India, in our culture, we use the color white in the health industry. Doctors, if they are not totally money driven, may have an idealistic idea of helping others, and they may blame themselves whenever they are not able to help, so the color white is appropriate for their situation. The energy of white can help them be more idealistic in their work. So, in a sense, even though black and white are both colors of idealism, black is more expressive, and white is more suppressed. Black is more visionary, and white is more action.

So, next time you choose to wear black or white, watch your perception of reality. Where are you at? Which one of these colors nurtures your inner feeling the most?
Tomorrow, I’ll talk about red and orange.
