Does anybody get a strong sense of a colour when they think about a certain Sun sign? I don't get a feeling for all of them but Scorpio is definitely purple (Cadbury's chocolate-wrapper purple) and Gemini is primrose yellow. Not sure about the rest, but Cappy may be teracotta. Anyone else? If not just humour me.... IP: Logged |

Well I think of people as having colours, not sure about signs. I'll think about it while I'm washing my hair - I'll get back to you on it! But good for you Wheels, this is the nice thread, right? I hate cyber-arguments - I can't punch the people who annoy me IP: Logged |

Well, I have to admit I feel a little guilty bounding in to this forum like a big old labrador myself and going "Hey! Do my chart total stranger!" whilst providing absolutely no information, a chart that is microscopically tiny and is no use to man nor beast, no personal insights to get the chart party started and no useful feedback on the results. So what the hell is your problem people? So I'm making amends.... poorly but surely. IP: Logged |

I see earth signs as brown basically.. though I read Capricorn (women) love pink.

CF love your Leo comment. This reminds me of shopping with my Leonine mother as a stroppy teenager. Remember the 80s and all those Dynasty shoulder pads? Yuck! She'd pick out all these bold colours and start losing it when I insisted on something Navy Blue - and I'd always cut out the shoulder pads. IP: Logged |

Hi Wheels-o-cheese. I love your nick. Are you a Caerphilly? Do you go well with a crisp Chardonnay? Awhile back I posted this link in a thread--> http://www.colorstrology.com/colorstrology_sniffer.html While it appears to be just a fun color/astrology site it is actually pretty accurate. Produced by one of the largest paint/color manufacturers in the world. And as a person with many Taurus placements I have never had a brown affinity ---Yes, brown can be beautiful. And the Henna tones have great spiritual significance. Many sites list pink as a color. Here is the color Pantone says represents my birthday- Azure Blue The accompanying text= - Soulful
- Charismatic
- Intense
You are kind and spiritual and want to connect with something greater than yourself. There is a strong calling to do something helpful and meaningful. Many of you have healing ability. Touch is very important for you, and so is being near the water. Artistic and theatrical, you are able to convey strong emotions. Your personal color connects you to the calm of the sea. Wearing, meditating, or surrounding yourself with Azure Blue helps you move through the tides of change without feeling overwhelmed or lost.

I personally ABHOR the colour pink Lol! Seriously apart from it being used sparingly, I really can't stand it. Anicdote: Me and a couple of friends were having coffee at Timmy's once and the topic of fav. colours came up, and well someone mentioned the colour pink. In my passionate disposition I just blurted out; "If I ever see a load of pink in front of me, I'll tear it apart" not noticing offcourse that my good female friend just happened to be wearing a pink blouse that day and was blusing furiously. I swear I would have given up drinking coffee if I could just reverse that moment Lol! IP: Logged |

Oh, what the hey:Aries makes me think of vibrant shades of red, orange, yellow, gold. Firey stuff. Taurus is earth tones, sure, but also greens, especially emerald and clover (the color of meadows in late spring). Gemini—lots of fun, flirty pastels. Periwinkle, lilac. Cancer is all about mauve. A "mom" color that sends out nurturing vibes (plus it looks great on most Cancers). Leo—Leo energy makes me think of bold colors: aquamarine, egg plant purple, dark ochre. Virgo—"solid," "practical" colors, like olive green, taupe. The more utilitarian version of Taurus colors. Libra....hmmm. Whatever's most en vogue at the moment. :-) Scorpio—I agree with those who say that Scorpio colors are deep and dark. Yeah, pretty much any color that is dark screams Scorpio to me. Sagittarius: I know most view Sag as fun-loving, but I've known many a Sag to seem like the most stark, austere colors (walnut, steel blue). Capricorn—many of the Capricorns I have known remind me of lighter colors, actually, including all varieties of pink and yellow. Aquarius—neat and tidy colors come to mind. Blue, grey, and basic black work best. Pisces: When I think of Piscean energy I think, "winding down," "suppressed," "sour." I think, "tie dye" and "washed out" and "scattered." I also think of the "white" and "off-white" in the background of a canvass. Before it got used by Jackson Pollock. ------------------ "You stay young as long as you can learn, acquire new habits and suffer contradiction." (Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach) IP: Logged |

Yellow and orange remind me of Leos, and in particular my Leo mom.Node's colorstrology thread was really cool. You should bump that Node. Xodian, I'll take pink. I have a theory about pink being a very sexual color, so I like it a lot. IP: Logged |

Well probably so Node but really... I just can't stand it. That colour brings out all the pent up negitivity in me in a very horendous way Lol! quote: I have a theory about pink being a very sexual color, so I like it a lot
Oh well there is no denying it is; but it shows a more... softer puppy side of infatuation. I am more a maroon/Blood Red kinda guy when it comes to romance and colours Lol! Hey Roses have their thorns ya know . IP: Logged |

When I think of Scorpio I think of a dark, deep crimson red or some type of burgundy..for Cancer I usually think of yellow or blue, the type of blue the caribbean is.. Leo I think of orange, Aries I think of bright fiery red, Virgos I think of earthy green or forest green, Aqaurius I think of a deep blue/purple, Pisces I think of watery oceany bluegreen, what else..oh yeah Capricorn I think of black, steel grey, sometimes burgundy, Sagittarius I think of red..and also I think of strong contrasting colors, combos that catch the eye. For Taurus..purple, like the purple on the headers on this page..and turqoise. Gemini I think of light sky blue and yellow. Libra I think of earthy colors but shiny/shimmery..pale lavenders and things like that too. I think that's it! ------------------ Capricorn sun / Scorpio rising / Sagittarius moon No man is free who is not master of himself. IP: Logged |

Hmmm... Colors and signs... Well...Aries: Red Taurus: Brown Gemini: Yellow Cancer: Navy blue Leo: Gold Virgo: Green (oddly most of the other virgos I've known LOVE green... Except for me, ironically. In fact, I hate green, but I admit that it coincides with my sign). Libra: White Scorpio: Either dark purple (maybe a royal purple) or maroon Sagittarius: Orange Capricorn: Grey Aquarius: I agree with whoever said silver Pisces: Turquoise or blue green Those are just the first colors that pop into my head when I think about the sign.

Forgot to mention that I agree with about 95% of the colors Augentier assigned. lol ------------------ Sun - Capricorn (10th House) Moon - Gemini (2nd House) Mercury - Sagittarius (9th House) Venus - Aquarius (11th House) Mars - Aries (12th House) ASC - Aries IP: Logged |

Hello Node, Caerphilly is one of my favourite cheeses, which is lucky because my mum lives there! Nice link although it did come out with lavender for me (Libra) which is a colour I despise, I'd rather have your azure blue! I agree with Xodian on the pink too, it makes me feel really uneasy. I generally wear shades of sage green. Perhaps because of Virgo rising. Hello Green Fairy! I haven't heard of synaesthesia before, so I wikipediad it. I don't think I have anything like that in relation to numbers, but words, consonants and vowels, yes, that rings a bell! And I agree with Aquarian being silver. I totally think of silver when I'm with an Aqua friend. IP: Logged |
