Color Healing Using Candles

Lighting colored candles that coordinate with what you need. For example if you want to gain knowledge, light a yellow candle. Light a pink candle to send love. Blue to resolve a spiritual problem. Lavender is good for healing. Silver is good for protection.

Color Frequenices

RED
Red is the color of energy, vitality and power. It is used for burning out cancer, drying up weeping sores or wounds, etc., it will warm cold areas to reduce pain. Red is a powerful healing agent for healing diseases of the blood and circulation. It will help with depression. Red is not to be used on people with high blood pressure or anxiety. If you stay under the red ray too long or are exposed to red for a considerable time it will make you very agitated or even aggressive. It is associated with the male polarity. A red carpet or wall - in a place of business - will draw money. If you are a sales person - try wearing something red!!

ORANGE
The mental body in both its logical and conceptual form. It is used to increase immunity, to increase sexual potency, to help in all digestive ailments, chest and kidney diseases. Orange will have a gentle warming effect if used lightly. Orange, like red should not be used for too long. It is not a good color for nervous people or people easily agitated.

PEACH
The peach frequency is used for peace, truth, and balance.

YELLOW
Yellow is the color of intellect and it is used for mental stimulation, it will help you think quicker. It is good for clearing a foggy head. To help cure dermatitis and other skin problems and again it must be used carefully because it is very stimulating and it could cause exhaustion and depression.

GREEN
Green is the color of healing and traveling back in time. It will balance the emotions and brings about a feeling of calmness. Green is a good general healing color because it stimulates growth therefore it is good for helping heal broken bones - re-growth of tissue of all kinds.

Green as a healing frequency You can place it around family members who are ill. Though many of you are not attuned in the palms of your hands with this frequency color - it is part of you now.

If you wish to heal someone - begin by asking the person if they wish to be healed. That may sound like a silly question but it is necessary. Help them find the emotional base for the ailment if you can, before you heal anyone.

You can not promise to heal them but you can make them feel more comfortable and show them how healing is done. Perhaps you can awaken the healing abilities in others. Just remember not to force this with anyone who is not ready and that healing is not for everyone.

When you and the person are ready to begin, find a calm quiet place. Be sure the person is relaxed with what you are doing and assure them you will not hurt them in any way. If you have a favorite healing crystal--use that when you heal.

The person can sit or lay down. No need to remove their clothing. Work first with the emotional aspects of the problem. Give the person hope. Get them to relax.

Ask your guides to protect you so their energies do not enter into your frequency.

Visualize the color green coming through your palms as you hold them just above --or gently on--someone with a problem.

Scan their body for 'hot' or 'cold' spots. That is where the blockages are. Tell them what you are doing and what you see and feel.

Now visualize the green healing energies coming through you as you work. Visualize them entering the person's body at the higher levels, especially the emotional body. Watch them sift through the cells of the person who is ill and moving the Chi energies.

You can have a third person take a picture of your doing the healing to see if you get a green aura of light around you or the person.

Feel your connection to the higher frequencies as you heal. Work with the heart chakra as it is the frequency green. You may even take it to the newer frequency of green=turquoise (green -blue).

There is no time limit for this. Usually a few minutes is all that is needed. Try to repeat the healing for 3 consecutive days--10 minutes a day.

You can heal yourself as well.

You can teach others to use the color green to heal.

You can send the green frequency to the planet for healing.

Try a past life regression with someone you trust placing them in the green bubble. See where you knew them in another lifetime. Green takes you back in time.
Today let's use the green frequency to connect with nature. Prepare as you would for meditation. Once relaxed--see yourself in nature--a beautiful green field--flowers--animal--the mineral kingdom. Wander through the field. . . perhaps you meet some of the Nature Spirits. Ask your spirit guide to meet you there and walk with you. He / she waits with his hand extended to you. Feel the energies of the nature kingdom. Connect your energies with them . . .become one with a plant, tree, forest of green. Once your have become connected look through the eyes of the plant. Can it communicate with other plants? If so, how? Try it? Call out to a plant in your home--garden--neighborhood. Say 'hello'! Ask about the changing frequencies.

Do all of the trees communicate globally as is written? Become a tree and experience on that level. Ask the tree about planet changes now.

Connect to the energies of the 'indigenous people' and experience nature through their eyes. After all, isn't this planet all about experience in the third dimension?

Use your green light to send love and balance to all of nature today.

BLUE
Blue is the color of truth, serenity and harmony, by helping to soothe the mind. Blue is good for cooling, calming, reconstructing and protecting. Blue will help feverish conditions, it will help stop bleeding and it will help with nervous irritations. It is very good for burns. Too much blue could leave you cold, depressed and sorrowful.

PURPLE
Purple is also a color that will connect you with your spiritual self. It is good for mental and nervous problems. It will assist very well with rheumatism and epilepsy. Helps with pain, is used in deep tissue work and helps heal the bones. Too much purple and you don't tend to live in this world. .

LAVENDER
Lavender is the color of equilibrium, it helps with spiritual healing. The Violet Flame - is supposedly charged with the light of divine freedom. It is used to burn off karma from other lifetimes on all levels.

WHITE
White includes all of the colors spectrum. It represents the source of conscious creation. It will purify the body on the highest levels. It is the highest charging field to bring peace and comfort at the highest level. White can also substitute for any other color.

The Frequency of White Light.
Innocence, chastity--triumphant of spirit over the flesh. These are some of the reasons a bride wears white in most societies. White denotes spiritual authority. In the Orient, in ancient Greece and Rome, it is the color for mourning. I think the deceased wear white as well. A woman wearing a white robe denotes the love-life-death meaning such as Delphic Aphrodite of Tombs, the Scandinavian Frigg (that not a swear -smile-) and Teutonic Hel/Freya--which is the Beloved--goddess of death. White combined with red and black depict the three stages of initiation. Of course everyone knows a white flag means surrender.

In Alchemy white is the feminine principle as represented by the 'The White Lily'.

It is the Second Stage of the great work as well as the purity of the undivided Light.

In the Arendian white is sacred.

To the Aztec it was the dying sun or night.

To the Buddhist tradition, white is self-mastery and redemption. It is representative of being lead from bondage---the highest spiritual transformation. In Celtic tradition the terrestrial goddess wore white.

To the Chinese white is mourning,

Druid priests wore white and it was the color of baptism.

If I remember correctly then white and green were used to symbolize joy in Egypt.

Greek tradition uses white for mourning, love, life...in just about all themes white is symbolic there. In Hinduism, white is symbolic of Pure Consciousness---sattva-- upward movement, the light and manifestation. Maori tradition holds white as meaning truce or surrendering.

To the Mayan in represented peace and health.

Roman tradition wore it for very propitious occasions

White is probably one of the most respected and well received of all the colors.

All cultures and societies seem to embrace the color white as pure, innocent and auspicious. The acceptance of white has weaved itself through all millennia from religion, philosophies, poetry and just about every human endeavor. Each time I study the different energy patterns and associations we give to colors---white seems to be the one that humankind writes the most about...when it comes to higher ideals and anything that represents the loftier values we see it as white.

SILVER
Silver is the color of peace and persistence. It is the major purging color so it is very good for removing unwanted diseases and troubles from the body. It is best for cancer of tissue and blood.

GOLD
Gold represents of alchemy of consciousness. It is the strongest color to help cure all illness. It is so strong that many people are not able to tolerate it, so people have to be conditioned to gold over a period of time. Gold strengthens all fields of the body and soul.

BLACK

Black is a color that is not used very often but it will help bring a patient to a state of grace. It will help them reach the silence and peace. Black opens up the deeper levels of the unconscious and is used in rituals to induce a deep meditational state, or to banish evil or negativity as in uncrossing rituals; attracts Saturn energy.
