orange

I love the color orange.  This comes as a surprise to me because I have never bought or owned anything orange.  Here is the power of orange:  it has the ability to promote creativity and open your appetite.  It is considered to promote a general sense of wellness. The color orange is  the second Chakra, the center of the abdomen it relates to food, sex, children and the willingness to feel emotions. Orange promotes balance. This might be why pumpkins have the power to make almost anyone smile or at least feel warm and cozy inside.  And of course is also the color of fire, oranges, pumpkins, sunsets, athletic teams....
The name comes form the Spanish naranja which is of course orange.
Consider orange to be the next neutral.  It can seriously go with endless color combinations as long as you are mindful of balance, shade and value.
