They painted their bodies with coloursfrom nature to signal aggression toward an enemy, or to make themselves attractive to mate.A girl and rainbow of crushed ice flavors at Chowpatty Beach, India. Over the centuries,the sources of colours such as blue, purple, and red were high valued and they were often worthas much as gold. In the 19 th century, young chemistry student manufactured the first syntheticdye, and suddenly the world became much more colorful place. In the 20 th century, scientistsdiscovered the psychological effects of colours, and people found ways to use this discovery toinfluence our feelings and behaviors.REDRed, colour of blood, symbolises fire, love and anger. In Eastern cultures, people believe it bringsluck, wealth and success. In humans, the color red can send different messages. Some peopleredden, for example, when they are angry or embarrassed. Researchers have discovered that insports the team that is wearing red is more likely to win. Why? Because red seems to be the colorthat signals dominance, giving those dressed in red an advantage in sporting events.

Its darker shades represent calm, stability and power.

It’s common in English, for example, whenyou are feeling sad or depressed, to talk about ‘feeling blue,’ while in Iran, blue is the colour ofmourning, worn when person dies. Like pink, blue has calming effect on people. Roomspainted blue help people to relax or sleep. Sleeping pills are often coloured blue to suggest exactlythis idea This colour also seems to reduce feelings of hunger.
