Black is the most misunderstood color. A black tie dinner is very formal and elegant. Women can wear that "must have little black dress" to the black tie dinner. Yet the bad guys wear black hats.

Black symbolizes death in some cultures. Native Americans thought black was good because it was the color of soil, which gives life.

Saturday's color is black.

In times of fear and uncertainty black contains the energy of the threatening unknown. In a positive state, black is seen as a restful emptiness into which anything may emerge and disappear once again. It is also mysterious, providing a sense of potential and possibility.

Black Energy

Black is not a color, strictly speaking. It is the absence of all color. When people speak of opposites, it is usually in terms of black and white. Black, and its opposite white, represent polarities. Black absorbs all aspects of light. While white reveals, black conceals. It has come to mean hidden, fearful or bad experience. It is linked to the unknown or the unseen.

to become inconspicuous

to open the door to mystery

to prepare for the unknown

a restful emptiness

to open up the deeper levels of the unconscious

to induce a deep meditational state

to banish evil or negativity

attract Saturn energy
