    You really have opened up a bag of worms on this thread.
    Now you don't know what colour to paint your house or what dress to wear without upsetting your pet bull.
    Meanwhile you have refreshed my memory on resistor colour codes and tolerances, then got my suggesting to Boozy moving his speakers all around the room.

    What do you have in mind next.
    How about "Candy Gal visits the moon" and asking me to design the rocket. First you will have to trade that bull in for a cow, otherwise you will have no milk for the tea during your visit.
    Which of hour HF admirers will you invite to join you on your trip.?

    PS, Don't forget to ask Skip to add a satellite receiver on the HF server. :yum:

    Here is an observation of mine.

    I enjoyed wearing fashionable black shirts and black leather jackets in my youth . But I came to notice with time that wearing of black for some reason agitated my mind and made it restless. Meditation has made my mind calm and hence I could observe the subtle mental agitation but could not understand the reasons for it.

    Later on, I heard a speech from a female spiritual teacher of the Prajapita Brahmakumaris stating that white dress attracts positive vibrations or energies while dark colours attract negative ones.

    I was also interested in Feng shui, and this explanation made some sense for the mental agitation I had while wearing black. After this, I gave up wearing black or darker coloured dress as much as possible.

    Most people in religious functions, priests and pilgrims also wear white colored dress from what I have seen.

    Wearing white clothes or light colored clothes, washed and ironed, has a feel good factor for me.

    Hope this may be useful for you.

    I really like deep purple.......but, other than that I can't say I've noticed colour affecting my mood.

    Wonderful post. I never considered the spiritual factor.
    I choose a colour that reflects my mood each day.

    I love bright colors like orange, yellow and rose pink. Brights and pastels put me in a happy and optimistic mood. Dark colors are nice too when i want to be introspective and stuff, but brights are my go-to faves.

    avacado (yellowish olivish green) brings me happiness and peace
    blue makes me think, but doesn't let my inner dialog shut tf up.
    red just frightens and repulses me. not because it represents spilled blood, though it does,
    but even more because it also represents anger,
    which is in a way i don't know how to describe, far even worse.
    (brown though, which is the actual color of dried blood, is also the color of the earth, of solidarity, that gives us someplace to stand and walk around on)
    metalic colors are the colors of technologies, mechanical technologies anyway, which have their own kind of fascination and amazement to see moving under their own power.
    purple is an interesting color if only for its actual unusualness.
    and pumpkin/omaha orange, is a far better color then red, for where safety requires something to be made visible, and the more asthetically pleasing way of doing so as well.
    even gray, a slightly cool and clean and relatively light gray, is useful for its calmness, as a neutral tone for each of every other color to play against with crisp graphic edges.
    for the softness of organics, the fluffiness of fur, it is the browns and yellows and oranges that are of course the colors of nature, though also there are dark and light grays
    in the combinations of fur markings.

    I really dislike people with purple hair. No, I don't like that colour for hair at all.

    only if they're loud or demand my attention. they're welcome to park themselves most places they're considerate enough to not make too big of a mess,
    but then i guess they wouldn't be idiots if they were.

    There are a few idiots on this forum. To me, they are blobs of fading colours.

    Oh I am so curious to read through this thread and see if my thoughts might change!

    Right now these is my feelings on the matter.

    Blue and green-calming, cooling, my personal Zen
    Red, yellow and sometimes orange-hot, irritating, uncomfortable (except I love cute hearts)

    Purple-What's not to love! It's like a perfect balance! Also happens to be my favorite color. :D

    Ah hahaha! I keep forgetting! :p It's funny though, I always spell theatre that way (that is the British way, right) And not sure if this is a brit/American thing, but I spell it grey, not gray. Oh oh! And I try to mostly say I went to University, because technically, I did! So, you've got it right on some things anyway! Haha! :D
