Need a Spiritual Uplift? - Tune into your Cosmic Colour.

This is a look at colour in the lives of the signs Aries through to Virgo and how colour affects day-to-day lives.

Colour is everywhere. The world would be a blank place without it. Colour gives out different wave-lengths of light and studies have shown this to affect mood and behaviour.

To feel good within, people should surround themselves with colours that best reflect and enhance their personality. Those who are in tune with their environment will feel better spiritually, emotionally and physically.

The twelve zodiac signs respond to specific colour groupings as certain shades will bring out the best qualities of each sign. Arians will, for instance, find red uplifting whereas for Geminis, yellow stimulates their active mind.

Cosmic Colours of Aries through to Virgo

Aries and Colour

Ruled by Mars, Aries relates well with red. Arians are impulsive, sociable and sometimes aggressive. They crave action and adventure. Those born under the first sign of the zodiac have boundless energy but can sometimes be impatient and bad-tempered! Red is an energizing and revitalizing colour. Red gives courage and strength. It increases self-awareness and puts the Arian in touch with their purpose in life.

Taurus and Colour

- Ruled by Venus, Taurus relates well with pink or magenta. Those born under the second sign of the zodiac have a steady, practical personality; Taureans are security conscious and find it difficult to adapt to change. Pink will help to promote their natural charm and graciousness. Magenta is a successful colour and this will appeal to the material side of the Taurean's nature. Pink stimulates love and affection and enhances emotional stability.

Gemini and Colour

- Ruled by Mercury, Gemini relates well with yellow. Those born under the third sign of the zodiac love to use their mind and imagination, needing variety in life and constant change. They are creative, innovative and intellectual. Yellow stimulates their innate curiosity and love of anything that is new and modern. This colour helps stave off depression and keeps Gemini cheerful. It also helps them communicate their feelings.

Cancer and Colour

- Ruled by the Moon, Cancer relates well with silver and green. Those born under the fourth sign of the zodiac are loving, sensitive and intuitive. As a Moon Child, they will love their home and family. Cancer is also a good friend, ready to help anyone who needs their support. They are highly sensitive to other people's moods and feelings. Cancerians should surround themselves with silver-green tones whenever they're feeling hurt, upset or distressed to restore their cheerful spirits.

Leo and Colour

- Ruled by the Sun, Leo relates well with gold. Gold is the colour of prosperity. Leo is the regal sign of the zodiac. Those born under the fifth sign of the zodiac love luxury and material possessions. Only the best is good enough for Leo! Gold enhances their majestic feelings as they like to rule over those around them. It is a warm, luxurious hue, reflecting the generous Leo heart.

Virgo and Colour

- Ruled by Mercury, Virgo relates well with blue. Virgos are hard working, conscientious and careful. People know they can rely on those born under the sixth sign of the zodiac as they are thorough in all that they do. They are a loyal friend. Virgos worry a lot, wondering for instance whether they're making the right impression on others or are they doing the right thing? Soothing blues will help calm them down and relax their anxious mind.
