Color Meanings
Have you ever considered what a gift color is to us? What if we could only view the world in black and white as it is with some animals? We’d really miss out on the richness, depth, and joy that color brings to our lives. Even though some only see in black and white, energy animals can give us messages through color. As spirit, we are continually shifting colors based upon our vibrational level at any given time, which also enables us to connect with the color and energy vibrations of our energy animals.
In animal frequency you often seek animal connections when you’re dealing with specific situations in order to obtain guidance from the energy animal. Considering colors during this process can give you insight into the energy animal and can help clarify the message it gives you. You’ll consider both the color of the animal’s energy and any colors you see or feel during the connection. For example, you may be sharing frequency with a black bear, but suddenly you see it surrounded by a blue cloud. While black can indicate a secretive nature, the blue represents calmness and truth. In interpreting this connection and situation, the message might be to keep calm and quiet until the truth is revealed.
Look at the animal’s actions, the way it looks at the world, how it acts and reacts to situations it’s involved in, and any colors that are associated with these activities. When you consider color as part of the whole experience, it can help you view a broader spectrum about your energy animals and the message they’re sending to you. I’ve included this list as an easy reference to the meanings of colors when doing an animal frequency session.
