RSS Feed and Orange

The RSS feed (the icon to the right of this article) is your way to be notified when new articles and thoughts are posted here. Clicking on it will ensure that in this busy world you won’t miss something here you might have enjoyed.  Just click on it to be connected.

The icon also raises a question to the colour-minded - “Why Orange?” Though i can find no historical reason listed, it fits very well with the theme of this site which is the influence of our (generally unconscious) knowledge of colour significance on the world we create around us.

Orange relates to the second chakra, the area of the tummy, the hara. And it is in this place that we find the mother of all connectors - the umbilical cord. That primary, direct connection which meant that while we were in the womb we received what we needed, immediately, without the need to go and search for it. The RSS feed performs exactly this function. Orange is the perfect colour to communicate the meaning of this icon. Lucky coincidence or the power of colour at work?

If you would like to learn more of these signs and clues to colour - now is your chance.  Just click on the RSS feed on the top right. It is the orange one!
