Whilst much of the theory behind the following chart is just theory, there are many interesting and sensible associations between the various colours within the chromotherapy chart and the healing powers they are said to possess. For more information on the theory surrounding this please see chromotherapy.
Violet
Violet promotes enlightenment, revelation, and spiritual awakening. Holistic healthcare providers use violet to soothe organs, relax muscles, and calm the nervous system.
Indigo
Indigo is also sedative and calming. It is said to promote intuition. Indigo may be useful in controlling bleeding and abscesses.
Blue
Blue promotes communication and knowledge. It eliminates toxins, and is used to treat liver disorders and jaundice.
Green
Because it is located in the middle of the colour spectrum, green is associated with balance. Green is calming, and is used in some ancient systems of healthcare in the healing of ulcers. It is said to have antiseptic, germicidal, and antibacterial properties and is sometimes used by holistic colour therapists to treat bacterial infections.
Yellow
Yellow is a sensory stimulant associated with wisdom and clarity. Yellow is thought to have decongestant and antibacterial properties, and is useful in stimulating both the digestive system and the lymphatic system.
Orange
Orange promotes pleasure, enthusiasm, and sexual stimulation. Ayurvedic practitioners (practitioners of an ancient system of Indian healthcare) believe it has antibacterial properties and may be useful in easing digestive system discomforts.
Red
Red promotes energy, empowerment, and stimulation. Physically, it is thought to improve circulation and stimulate red blood cell production. It is the colour of primal urges.
