According to decades of research by psychologists around the world, the colours we relate to, say a lot about our personalities. So what does colour say about you? 

Colour-related psychological studies were developed in the twentieth century. Colour preference tests were devised in order to gain useful information on how people will react to certain colours in given situations, and as a means of personality analysis. The following information gives a brief outline of each colour and the personality traits they portray.

RED

It shows that you are very social, assertive & energetic. But at the same time, you are also moody and impulsive. You feel deep sympathy for fellow human beings and are easily swayed. You are an optimist, but you are also a complainer and do not desist from voicing your complaints or discomforts.

ORANGE 

You are good natured, enjoy being with others and are swayed by outside opinions. You do good work, have strong loyalties, and are very good at heart.

YELLOW

You are very imaginative and have a strong urge to help the world. You are inclined to speak of lofty ideas without applying them in practical. Secretly, you are shy, wish to be respected, crave admiration for your wisdom and are a mental loner. You are a safe friend in whom people can confide their secrets and problems.

GREEN

You are a good citizen and a pillar of the community and are sensitive to social customs and etiquette. You are frank, moral and reputable. You make yourself a splendid teacher and feel deep affection for your family.

BLUE
You are deliberate and introspective. You have conservative convictions and retreat to gentler surroundings in times of stress, but are sensitive to the feelings of others. You keep a tight rein on your passions and enthusiasms, are a loyal friend and lead a sober life. You nourish big dreams but do not act on them. Stupidity in others annoys you, as does superior intelligence.

PURPLE

You have a good mind, a ready wit and an ability to observe things that go unnoticed by others. You get angry easily. You display fine-arts creativity and appreciate the subtle but recognise the magnificent.

BROWN

You perform your duties very well, are clever with money matters, stubborn in your habits and convictions. You are dependable and steady, dislike impulsiveness and can bargain very well. 

GREY

You are cautious, try to strike a compromise in most situations. You encounter and seek composure and peace. You try very hard to fit yourself into a mould of your own design.

BLACK

You are above average, worldly, conventional, proper, polite and regal. Black is a colour that means one thing (depression) to the clinical psychiatrist and quite another (dignity) to you.
