In fact, I am Yellow/Violet

After I wrote the last post about Violet, I was reminded that I was also equally Yellow. So I went and reread the part in the book and saw I am indeed quite Yellow, perhaps almost equal to being Violet (see below). So here are the parts from the book on Yellow that fit me well.


Yellows believe life is meant to be enjoyed. They do not like to take life seriously, nor do they like to work.

They enjoy giving gifts such as flowers and candy.

Yellows are everybody's friends; they are some of the most considerate people on the planet. Yellows tend to be shy with people they do not know. Once they are in familiar surroundings with people they know, however, they can become the life of the party.

Yellows in their power have abundant energy as if it's flowing from an unlimited source. With all this energy flowing through their bodies, Yellows have a hard time sitting still. While they are listening to someone, they will tap their feet, fidget or squirm... It is imperative for them to stay physically active on a regular basis in order to be happy, healthy and centered.

Yellows can also be creative writers. Both physical and creative projects are therapeutic for Yellows. Yellows do not enjoy becoming involved with heavy, intense emotional problems.

It is difficult to convince Yellows to stay away from negative addictions because they enjoy the substances and they do not like being told what to do. If someone tells a Yellow what to do, he will likely do the opposite. They are natural rebels. It has to be their choice.

Yellows often have a fear of commitment. In their eyes, commitment may take away choices or options; it means they will have to grow up and accept responsibilities. They have a hard time committing to one person or one career. Yellows prefer choices and freedom rather than restrictive responsibilities. Often Yellows truly believe they want committed relationships. However, they should look at their patterns to see if they are facing the truth.

It is painful for them to feel they have caused anyone unhappiness, especially those they love. They want play mates, who can laugh with them, take care of them and at the same time not take away their freedom.

When in their power, Yellows are creative problem solvers. They can create unique, new and innovative solutions. Their solutions are usually designed to make life easier.

It does not take much money to make Yellows happy nor do they want to work that hard for it... If Yellows can imagine how something physically feels to them, it will usually manifest for them.

Yellows do not judge their success in terms of money. They judge their success by how much fun they are having, by how much freedom and flexibility they have and by how many people like them.

What am I?

If you are a little interested in finding clues to what the meaning of your life may be you come across all sorts of mysticism telling you who you are. Some are ancient traditions with well tested analysis of personality and some are new age stuff which has an all new jargon for these things. Well, astrologically I knew I was a proper Capricorn with Taurus rising, a Makara in Indian, and a devoted metal Dog of Chinese astrology. Ayurvedically, that is according to Indian medicine I have the constitution of Vata, which is Air, with a little Pitta, Fire and this makes me more of a visionary and thinker than an engineer or a manager. My numerology turned out to be 8, the number of periodic renewal, not a mystic but a secure number. I even took the earth angels challenge and I turned out to be a Starperson which explains why I feel like an alien sometimes:) Recently I was pretty amazed by the results of yet another test about life colors. This is about our auras, mostly coming from birth but also developing in life. I knew that I wouldn’t be one of those Indigo or Crystal kids but now I can be proud of my Violet/Yellow aura.

Yes, now I know I have a violet aura around my airy metallic doggy sea-goat self. I’m not purely violet though. The yellow explains why I don’t take things so seriously but rather playfully and some blue which explains other things. But I’m mostly violet (see below) and I think that counts for more.


Here are a few paragraphs on Violet, from the book Life Colors by Pamala Oslie. I just picked those lines which felt closest to mirroring who I actually am.

Violets are here to save the planet and save it for the better. Violets have an inner sense that they are here to do something important, that their destiny is greater than that of the average person. Because this is a Violet Age, any Violets who are not accomplishing what they came here to do are having an inner “push” –even an inner “earthquake”. These visionaries also love to travel. (Since Violets are here to save the planet, they have to see and understand what they need to save.) Violets’ careers and lifestyles must afford them the freedom to travel or they will become frustrated and feel limited and unfulfilled. They need to travel the world, explore other cultures and expand their horizons.

Violets believe that what they “see” is common sense. They do not understand why everyone can’t see what they see… Violets are often accused of being idealistic dreamers.

Violets want relationships, but their lives won’t be put on hold for them. They want partners who will live their vision with them, share a similar path and be an inspiration to them. They want mates who are willing to travel with them.

Violets judge their success by the quality of their performances, and by their ability to effectively reach their audience. Violets have a statement to make. They feel fulfilled when they know they have reached the world with their message and have inspired change. Violets need t know that they have done their part in making the planet a better place in which to live.


If you know me, you may join me in saying “wow, so correct”. If you don’t know me that well these words can help you. If you want to fıgure out what your color can be take the test here.
