Spiritual Meaning of the color Red

      Colors shape the way we interact with the world around us. The psychological association with certain colors makes us feel and act a certain way. We associate negative and positive feelings with certain colors, which shapes how we view the world. So, it makes sense that the energetic and spiritual realm also associate meaning to colors according to vibration. So what does the color red mean spiritually? The spiritual representation of red is power, energy, vitality, dominance, action, assertion, creation, survival, and passion. When a spiritual sign appears in your life that is red, it usually represents that you are ready to take action on a new goal or project that you have been putting off. The spiritual message is “have the courage to take action, and we’ll take care of the rest.” 
         The spiritual realm loves to give signs in the form of colors and symbols, and red is a color that they love to play with. Red emits a vibration that makes you want to take action or makes you feel powerful. It catches the eye, saying pay attention. Spirit loves the color red because you notice it and are more likely to take action. The color red is the longest on the visible light spectrum, and because it is most visible to our eye that means it is strongest in the physical realm. Because it is so physical, it is actually the most difficult energy for the spiritual realm to rest. That is why Spirit will send symbols with red attached to objects with a high spiritual realm to rest. That is why Spirit will send symbols with red attached to objects with a high spiritual vibration. When you see a lot of red in your life, it is important to pay attention to what objects the red is appearing with, and how you feel when you see it. Often, you will see flashes of red when it is most important to get present with your life and pay attention to what is happening around you. The color red is trying to pull you into the present moment and get you out of your head, where we are often thinking of the past or the future. We cannot take action on things that have happened in the past, and we cannot live in the future. The only time we have total control over our lives is when we are fully living in the present moment. Red is also a color that can give you the feeling of safety and security in your environment. It is the color of the root chakra, which makes us feel grounded in our current realities. If you are seeing a lot of red after a period of environmental change, it may be a sign that things are happening below the surface to build up a secure foundation once again.

Exposure to the sun is what gives everything on this planet life. Without vitamin D from the sun, our health declines. Similarly, red is the most vibrant and powerful color on the visible light spectrum. It gives us the psychological feeling of power, action, passion, confidence, and embodiment of Self.

This may seem morbid or pessimistic, but it is actually deeply profound and a wise way to live. Fearing death and illness will only lead to suffering because it is inevitable that we will all go through it at some point in our lives. Interestingly, when someone loses their attachment, or expectation of things, being a certain way, they go through miraculous healing. Accepting and allowing things to happen, gives spirit the green light to transform your life without resistance. Many times people that have gone through a terrible illness have the greatest impact to help others. You never know the reasons why you are going through something until later. That is how spirit works. The message is to surrender to the law of nature and allow things to happen how they naturally happen. If you dream of a Red Sun, it could be a sign that you need to rebuild the foundation of your life. You may wake up with a solution in mind.
