The Color Red

Have you ever wondered what will happen when you enter a room that is painted with a powerful red color? Will you be able to feel that sudden rush of energy in your body? Would you like to try it out?
All these instances are good for imagination and can even be practiced in real life to know about the strong energies of the red color. It is the color of blood and is therefore, a color that counts for your survival. 


What does the red color represent?


The red color represents passion, energy and warmth in the most extreme forms. It stirs up the qualities of leadership in your being and boosts up your self-confidence when you feel shy or low on confidence. 
It is a color that instills the energy of your body and revitalizes it completely. It is a color related to the sexual needs of a person and stimulates the extreme passions of our body. On the positive side, it is a color of immense love and passionate sex but on the negative side, it stands for the hurtful revenge or the bitter anger. 
As the red color shares such a deep and lasting relationship with love and passion, it is usually related to the concept of marriage in the Indian culture, where the bride is usually dressed in red on her wedding day and the groom adorns her with the red-colored vermilion or sindoor. 
This color also symbolizes blood and therefore, often invites violence and war that spills over the blood of many individuals. It also arouses in you the cravings of food and thus, many restaurants make use of this color. 
But if you use this color in excess, then you will tend to become angry at petty matters and your aggression will increase manyfold. Therefore, it is important to use this color in a limited and beneficial way.

Significance of red color in astrology


In astrology, the red color is often associated with two planets of the solar system - the Sun and the Mars. While the Sun also emits yellow color, its main color is taken as red. This is because this color stands for vital energy and a sense of royalty that is similar to the nature of the Sun. Therefore, red flowers and red ruby gemstone are used to strengthen the position of the Sun in your horoscope chart. 
Talking about Mars, it can be said that this planet is completely red in color. The red color of Mars depicts violence and bloodshed. This planet has a fiery nature and if it is not in a favorable position in your birth chart then you may either suffer from blood-related diseases or accidents. 
Therefore, it is very important to pacify this planet using red lentils, turmeric, etc. The gemstones like red and pink corals can also be used but only after consulting an expert astrologer.
