Written by Holland Colours | May 8, 2020 8:16:25 AM

A combination of energetic red and cheery, happy yellow, orange is a color of activity and rejuvenation. It emotes feelings of warmth, excitement and overall well-being. It is often used to draw attention in advertising, signs and fashion.

 

Not used as a word to describe color in English until the 1510’s, it was defined as "a reddish-yellow color like that of a ripe orange." Colors similar to the modern orange in Middle English might have been called citrine or saffron before the general acceptance of the word.
The Sanskrit identification color for the seventh chakra, also called the Sacral chakra, is orange. The impact of the color orange in the body’s emotions is related to sexuality, creativity, desire, the reproductive system, and compassion.

Bring some positive, creative energy into your life today with orange!
