All colors have some influence on your life; The ones you wear on your clothes, the ones you put in your house, the ones you see, all have a certain influence on your emotions. That is why there is color psychology and many other disciplines that are dedicated to investigating the meaning of colors.
In the spiritual realm, colors also have an impact. For example, the chakras have different colors and each one has a relationship with some element, organ and emotion..

Sadghuru, a yogi and spiritual guide, also dedicated himself to unraveling the meaning of colors in the spiritual environment. Part of the idea that color is highly relevant to your life, since your aura is a specific color.
For example, People who are on an ascetic path don’t wear clothes because they don’t want to add anything (like the energy of the colors of the clothes) to what they already have. Therefore, they decide to walk naked.
What is color in the first place? The color of any substance is not due to what it is, but to what it rejects or to what it gives away or reflects.. Something looks red not because it is red, but because it retains everything that white light contains and reflects red. So red doesn’t mean it’s red. Red means it’s not red. Whatever you give, that will be your quality in the world too.
The Red color
If you walk through the forest, everything is green, but there will be a patch of red – somewhere, a blooming red flower – that catches your eye because in your perception, red is the most vibrant of all colors. All other colors may be pretty and nice, but red is vibrant.
Many things that are meaningful to you are red. Red is the color of your blood, for example.. In human consciousness, colors have a huge impact on how you feel, and red creates maximum vibration. Anything lush means red.
Among the deities you create, the female forms are the most exuberant. The color of Linga Bhairavi is red. Devi means that vibration. Her energy is absolute vibration and exuberance. That is why Devi is red.
The color blue
Blue is the color of total inclusion. Anything that is vast and beyond your perception usually tends to be blue, be it the ocean or the sky..
Everything that is bigger than your perception tends to be blue because this color is the basis of total inclusion.. It is on this basis that so many gods in India are shown with blue skin. Shiva, Krishna and Rama have skin of that color. But actually, it’s not like his skin was blue; They are represented like this and they are called blue gods because they had an aura of that color.
the orange color
The reason why people who walk the spiritual path choose orange as their color (at least in India) is because this hue suggests many things.
People who are on the path where the whole process is about enlightening and opening that dimension of perception known as the third eye will always look for this warm hue because they want to radiate that color..
Orange is also a symbolism. When the sun rises in the morning, it looks orange. You wear this color to indicate that a new light has come into your life and that a new upheaval has occurred within you.
the color white
There are seven colors and white occupies number eight. In spiritual terms, this means that it is that dimension that is beyond what you can see. White is not a color but the absence of it, but it is also inclusive. The white light that you see contains all seven colors.
White is a good color for you. Those who are on a path where they do not want to collect anything, will dress in white. His sadhana (means to achieve something) is smooth; they are on the spiritual path, but they are involved in various aspects of life, they do not want to gather life around them. They want to participate in life, but they don’t want to accumulate anything; such people will choose to wear white.
the color black
If you are in a space that is powerfully energized and you want to absorb that energy, black is good. Black gives nothing, he absorbs everything. If you wear black and go to a good space, you will absorb it. But if you wear black and go to a bad space, you will absorb that.
Therefore, not everyone is qualified to wear black. If you continually remain dressed in black and expose yourself to a variety of situations, you will notice that your energies fluctuate; black sucks all the emotion out of you and takes your mind to very volatile and unbalanced states. You become a silent suffering. You will suffer in such a way that you will not even be able to find expression for your suffering. So choose well in which situations to wear black.
