Blue is my "working" color. When you see me wearing it, that means i am in a cleaning/working mood. I wore muted grey with a touch of blue shirt to put in my app, and a blue muted with grey suit skirt to do my interview. (Black as contrast, black is power) So i looked strong and work ready! I figured it was neutral and soothing, and it really seemed to make both me and them relaxedHave you ever noticed the colors in fast food joints? After eating in one, are you in a happy mood? Um, no not really, because you ate too much... Yellow...

Anyway... there is more things obviously, but color can very much affect moods...

Green.........i adore green. Especially jade green. My camper was supposed to be jade, but i like the color that's on it as well. Birds aren't supposed to be able to see green, but mine studied the paint job for some time after it was done, they seemed to like it! I chose it to symbolize the symbiotic relationship that the birds and i have. I am very much a nature-nurture person! It was funny to see that it meant fertility as well........................ Healing is good. I needed to heal from much when i got my birds, and my bp is mostly gone these days.
