Colours- How they affect your vastu

Interest in colour dates back to the ancients in Egypt and India.
Many temples in Egypt were devoted to the chakras (energy centers)
of the body. The Ayurvedic texts of ancient India recount the Gods
using colored light to heal the body and to inject life force into
food and water.
Colour has some vibrational frequencies. This acts like a vitamin
for the energy fields of the body as well as surrounding Colour has
been known to have most powerful effects on our mind and body.
Colour contains the energy of the Sun, the life restoring force of
nature. Not only colour but light, music and fragrance are also
efficient modes of nature to connect with the subconscious core.
Colours act like gems; they increase the aura of the astral body &
atmosphere.
Different colours can be used to achieve certain responses. Physical
responses to colour are not tied to our individual psyches or bear
much relation to our cultural background. In fact, everyone has the
same general physical responses to certain colours.

The colour affects the mind more than it affects the body. Thus
there is greater consideration of the Satwik, Rajasik and Tamasic
effects of colour, even more in their effect on the physical
constitution.


Vedic astrological and architectural scriptures make the use of
colours to represent different deities. The seven colours of the
spectrum namely, violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, red
are said to be the seven rays or the deities or the sun!
