Color Magick

Colors. We perceive them as bright or dark, deep or light, sort-of this and sort-of that, but regardless of whether it's a royal blue or an earth brown, color affects us. It has been proven that colors have an affect on our brains and they do produce different emotional results. What do you think of when you see red? Passion? Maybe anger? Regardless, the response is dramatic. Colors as used in magick are similar in that they should evoke a response from you, but keep in mind, your response to, say purple, may be different than mine, and this is perfectly okay. If you see pink as healthy or health, so be it. The colors must have meaning to the person using them.

The magick of colors can be used in many different ways, just let your creativity show you the way. The use of colors in magick is only limited to what you want to use the colors for.
