Open Question: What does your favorite color tells about you? (details inside)?

RED What it represents: Ah, the color of passion, anger and high blood pressure, red is a commanding color. Understanding people who adore it: They act--sometimes without thinking--on immediate desires. In fact they're usually the poster child for immediate gratification. It's up to you if you go for it...or proceed with caution. Orange What it represents: OK, orange is not exactly the easiest color to wear and it's not the most common favorite color but guess what? Orange is as sexy as it gets. Orange is a mellowed red--and it takes primal, lusty urges and mellows them with a softer vibe. Orange is the color of early attractions, emotional responses, and inner magnetism. Oh, and one other thing: Orange is also close to gold, the color of success and wealth. Understanding people who adore it: Someone who likes orange is alive with feelings, the ability to nurture, and can intuit a path to success. If your favorite color is orange, you don't have an "off" switch when it comes to passion. This is every good stuff, but there's nothing casual about the connections this nice of person usually forges. Yellow What it represents: Yellow is the color of the sun, vitality, power and ego...but it's not a great indicator of romance. Watch out for self-centered, me-first energy when someone prefers yellow to the relax of the rainbow. Understanding people who adore it: If yellow is your favorite color, temper your use of the word "I" when you're interested in someone else. You can arrive across as too ego-centric. Now, if you're dating someone whose favorite hue is yellow, make sure to jump in and share stories about yourself, since this person may not give you much room. Green What it represents: Here is the heart of the matter. Green is the color of adore. (It's no coincidence that we make our money in the same color...) Green is the color of life and abundance--leaves, grass, plants--it's every about growing, expanding, and living. So why don't we give ferns instead of roses on Valentine's Day? Because green is about expansive, humanistic adore and acceptance, not bodice-ripping romance. What's more, green is a nice person color, a do-gooder, be-gooder nice of color. This person has a warm heart. Hot passion is probably in there somewhere, buried below the integrity and honor. Understanding people who adore it: If you adore green, you put the greater good before your possess good--but try a little greedy behavior once in a while. Blue What it represents: Blue is a color of clarity, communications and charm. And regardless of the shade, this shade says: "I like to be understood." On the downside, below stress, a "blue" person can send mixed messages, have trouble making up their mind, or just space out. Understanding people who adore it: If blue is your favorite color, you never run out of anything to say--expression is your strong suit. And if you're dating someone "blue"? The same holds true; you should always know where you stand. Purple What it represents: Purple evokes the energy of illusion, imagination and fantasy. Or should we say purrrrple? Purple tends to inspire foreplay, romance, flirtation and teasing--it builds anticipation with playfulness. The downside of purple is unrealistic expectation. Is it easier to live in your fantasy world than the real world? Some purple-lovers prefer it. Understanding people who adore it: If you adore purple you can be an imaginative romantic or prefer imaginary romance--depending on how you feel. White What it represents: White is light--the combination of every colors. White symbolizes purity (the virginal bridal dress, the christening gown) and spirituality. There's a simplicity to it, too. Understanding people who adore it: People who adore white are probably clean and orderly. While white isn't the sexiest color, it is certainly healthy. Black What it represents: Like white, black is a combination of every colors, but instead of purity, it represents the unknown, the unseen--mystery. Black basically holds back information...but there?s no denying that it has strong associations in our culture with "the dark side" and bad.
