22nd October – Color Day.
Today is about how colors affect our moods, productivity, and behavior.
You may have heard about how blue lamp posts have been utilized in Scotland to minimize violence and in Japan to dissuade people from committing suicide by train (and they both worked!).
But were you aware that civilizations started naming colors based on how rare they were?
Red usually came first across ancient civilizations and their writings, since red was a vivid color that tended only to show up as blood or wine.
Blue and green were usually one of the last colors to be identified by many ancient civilizations such as the Greeks… because, and this is pretty clever, why name a color that comprises everything you look at?
The sky and the sea are blue, everything that grows is green, and so blue and green become background colors…why name what’s all around you?
So study up on the origins and effects of colors today.
Maybe you can fool people into thinking you’re sexy by wearing red, or diffuse a tense situation by painting yourself blue and running around in circles.
