Psychology of color

Why people wear colorful clothes? Because from ancient ages colors have had its own meaning and the most important colors were blue, red, green, yellow, orange and indigo.
In ancient cultures colors were used to heal and it called chromo therapy. It was thought that red color stimulates the body and mind and increases circulation. Yellow was thought to stimulate nerves and purify the body. Orange was used to heal the lungs and to increase energy levels. Blue was believed to soothe illnesses and treat pain. Indigo shades were thought to alleviate shin problems.
Nowadays it is still thinking that colors may have influence in healing. Red evokes strong emotions and associates with love, warmth and comfort. Green symbolizes nature and represents tranquility, good luck, health and jealousy. Blue calls to mind feelings of calmness or serenity but also can create feelings of sadness or aloofness.
To sum up, I think that it’s not important the colors meaning. If man or women likes that color they wear such colors clothes.
