The Secrets of Blue

Blue is described as the favorite color of many individuals, especially of men. Blue calls to mind a sense of calmness and serenity, peace and tranquility, but you’d be surprised with the secrets it bears when it comes to its association with one’s character.

Why So Blue?

Psychological research has shown that people work more productively in blue rooms. However, blue can also create feelings of sadness and alienation. If you like blue, it shows modesty and melancholy in your character.

A sense of confidence, and benevolence of others are highly important for those who like blue. This personal attachment of people to blue is rooted to the fact that it is associated with highness and nobility just like the sky and the oceans.

Opposition to this color reveals a man who wants to make the impression that he can do everything in this world. But, in fact, he’s a sample of insecurity and isolation.

Indifference to this color refers to frivolity of senses, hidden under the mask of courtesy.

"Fans of the color blue" often need to rest, because they tire quickly; the choice of blue as the most preferred color reflects a physiological and psychological need to have a rest, and denial means that this person avoids relaxation.
