Red - Olympic Winner

Red is the basic survival colour, supporting the will to live, physical health, energy levels, good nutrition and boosts circulation. The tiger of the spectrum. Red has a roar not to mess with. The colour of blood, birth and death. The life force colour, enthusing one with the will to live, to succeed in all action. The courageous, flexible, dominant yet anxious and frustrated colour.

Red quickens the heart beat, ups the ante, raises blood pressure and arouses passions and emotions quicker than any other colours. Whether the emotions are associated with love & sex or danger & aggression, the affect red has on igniting highly charged emotions cannot be ignored.

The colour associated with the root chakra/energy centre,red encourages feelings of security and grounding, the freeing of inhibitions while gleefully scattering their energy prior to burn out. Master at starts but not finishes. Whether on a low or a high, red will not be ignored.Red the leader, the pioneer, the moaner, the drama queen, the hypochondriac.A glorious mix and paradox, yet still the Olympic winner.     

Red rules.
