Colorstrology Birthday
Colorstrology: What Your Birthday Color Says about You by Kate Smith I was reminded of Colorstrology when a piece by Michele Bernhardt was included in the fabulous House Beautiful September Color Issue but it has been awhile since I looked at what Colorstrology says about each person based on their birth date. Apr 16, 2009 - Remember the fab Colorstrology website from Pantone? They've made it into a totally free iPhone App! Just as easy to use and aesthetically pleasing as the original site (there's reason Pantone is the authority on color), the app tells you what your birthday color is and what it says about you. Already know. What's your birthday color is a simple but entertaining test based on ancient Thai wisdom, infuenced by Hindu mythology to find out what's the lucky and unlucky color and character of you and your friends and foes. Suitable for all ages from 12 to 99.
I was reminded of when a piece by Michele Bernhardt was included in the fabulous House Beautiful September Color Issue but it has been awhile since I looked at what Colorstrology says about each person based on their birth date. When it came up again this morning I decided to take another look. I love the first two opening pages (shown below) and the ideas expressed.
Off to a good start. I pulled up my birth date February 19th first. Although I’ve never really been attracted to the color ‘Blush’ the write up about my personality traits was a good fit. Here’s a couple of highlights: YOU love to learn and explore new things especially if there is an artistic or organic slant to the subject.
Yep, that’s true Although you get along well with others you have a strong independent streak. You want a partner with whom you can share your life, but one who doesn’t require all of your energy. True again & I don’t think I could have said it any better Now I know my sister Julie pretty well so I decided to see if the traits for March 24th fit her personality. There is something about your physical presence that is commanding yet likable. Commanding wouldn’t be a word I would have used but Julie does have a presence and is easily likable so I’d say this rings true. You have an artistic ability and a great sense of style.
No question here. Julie is very artistic, creative and has an innate sense of style. So far so good but but I wanted to look up at least one more so I looked at my friend Kiki’s birth date January 21st. Many people born on this day have a propensity for writing. True, Kiki is a good writer. Your mind is very active so it is important for you to communicate both creatively and physically. Sports, dance or the arts are all activities that can bring joy and help you relax.
I’d say this is very true. After all Kiki is very creative and did dance with the Minnesota Ballet/Stage Door Performing Arts for 15 years. Okay, three for three. I’m not sure if it is just a lucky coincidence or that there really is something more to Colorstrology but it sure was fun. Why not find your color and then leave a comment and let me know if what your birthdate say about you is on target.
The fashion and design communities were abuzz when Pantone announced the 2014 color of the year, which according to their site 'blooms with confidence and magical warmth that intrigues the eye and sparks the imagination.' But Radiant Orchid isn't your bag (though we're not quite sure why that would be the case). As an alternative, you can now learn more about an array of Pantone shades and the adjectives attached to them with. As its title implies, the book uses descriptions gleaned from astrology to determine which color is better suited for your month or day of birth.
