THE COLOR BLUE
Water Element (Kidney/Bladder) & Throat area, 5th Chakra
BLUE has opposite effects to RED. While red expands and stimulates, blue contracts and restricts. It slows things down so that it can combat infectious diseases where there is a rise in temperature and has strong anti-bacterial properties. Blue is antiseptic, cooling and astringent. Psychologically, blue can bring peace of mind, particularly after excessive mental stress. Too much blue, however, can be very sedating and even give you ‘the blues’ in extreme cases, in which case it needs to be balanced with some more stimulating red, orange or yellow. Blue can be helpful with treating acne, soothing throat troubles, fevers and children’s ailments (such as mumps and measles), inflammation, spasms, stings, itching and headaches. Also use it for shock and insomnia.
