Green is opposite red on the color wheel and has basically the opposite affect on us that red has. Go figure. Ever wonder why a good hike through a green forest can be so relaxing? Physically the color green steadies the heart rate and brings balance to heart and mind while helping us breathe slower and deeper.
Being neither a warm or cool color (equally yellow -warm- and blue -cool), green has a restful effect and can create feelings of comfort and calmness.
Its the color of nature, fertility, life and balance.
Green symbolizes self-respect, well being, hope, learning, harmony, good luck and growth.
Negatively - various hues of
green often bring decay and sickness to mind. And of course who could forget the ugly green monster of jealousy and envy.
