Colors representing Emotions...

Colors are always tough to pinpoint an emotion, simply because both are subjective and vary from person to person. Physical attributes (such as how physically the human eye changes subtly from one person to the next) and life experiences (from the way you grew up and were taught colors to life experiences that you may subconsciously associate colors with).

Red: Excitement, Lively, Easily Bored, Hasty, Passionate. Red is the color of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war, danger, strength, power, determination as well as passion, desire, and love. Red is an emotionally intense color.

Pink: Sensitive, Kind, Sweet Disposition, Romantic. Culturally related to things feminine and womanly, pink is a soothing color. Some prisons use it to calm aggressive prisoners. Its the color of comfort, warmth and tender affection.

Yellow:Happy, Playful, Optimistic, Spontaneous. Causes more eye fatigue than any other color. It increases metabolism and upsets babies. Yellow often makes many people feel cheerful, energetic, and happy but soon fatigued.

Blue: Calm, Trustworthy, Loyalty, Daydreamer :// Serious, Conservative.  Relax, soothe, and make us feel more spiritual and centered. Blue is intuitively chosen for bedrooms for just this reason. It also improves productivity. Blue is also considered to be a clean color. 

Gray: Reserved, noncommittal. Color for the studious, the ambiguous and the bare. It can have an unfriendly or indifferent feeling when its a lot of it.

Green: Safe, Goodwilled, Generous :// Stubborn. Green is the color of nature. It symbolizes growth, harmony, freshness, and fertility. Green has strong emotional correspondence with safety. Dark green is also commonly associated with money. 

Brown: Dependable, Loyal. Security, credibility, and reassurance. It also tends to be soothing and comfortable.

Purple: Negotiator, Well Liked, Mysterious
