Effects And Characteristics Of The Color Yellow

Yellow is primarily a joyous colour, but it also brings out wisdom, understanding and highest of intuitional insight. In its golden aspect yellow represents spiritual perfection, peace and rest. It is the colour of sunshine, youth, gladness and merriment. Characteristically yellow colour makes a dark room brighter where sunlights do not enter. In such a room cherry colour (bright red) is used as wall colour. It is a good colour to paint the kitchen. Yellow fruits and vegetables tend to act as laxative to the bowel and calm the nerves. In its most positive vibration, golden yellow is deeply spiritual, and brings out compassion and creativity. In its negative aspects however, yellow, when too bright or used too often, is overstimulating to the psyche and nerves, and can cause mental irritation even to the point of destruction. Yellow in its negative vibrations is also the colour of cowardice, prejudice and destructive domination.
