WHich of the 5 elements would you associate with the color pink?

I think I remember that in one of Chia's books it's under fire. Like a more gentle version of red. I have this impression too.

 

Why do you ask Pietro?

[lydian]

I vaguely remember the color pink being associated with the blended 5 elements including sexual energy in Chia's system.

Can't find a reference, though.

[Gerard]

Highly used in the sexual context (porn, erotic photography, etc.). It would be mild version of the Fire element.

Just a wild guess:

 

Pink is Fire and Metal combined. The predominant element of the combinaton depends on the hue.

 

Heart => Fire => Red

Lungs => Metal => White

[Birch]

Heh, is "white" even a colour?

 

Are we in for a "5 colours blind the eyes session";-)?

 

Red for sure is fire.

 

Pink in Asia = porn but here in NA = closer to "cutesy" and "lurve". Where's the disconnect/connect?

 

There's a neat colour wheel out the on the interwebs showing cultural significance of colours which could very well be a 5E insight into what each one is presently preoccupied with or in the process of changing.

White is all the colours of the rainbow :-)

 

 

White for the lungs could signify the connection of the life breath to all the elements.

pink... usually a higher tone or hue than the red hue associated with fire and the heart.

Usually associated with love. Sometimes the concept of "universal love" common to all creatures including animals, plants even trees.

I do not associate any of the 5 elements with the color pink - as simple as that

 

Why, because I associate the five elements with white (metal/lungs), blue/black (water/kidneys), green (wood(liver), red (fire/heart) and finally yellow (earth/spleen).

 

Are you sure you're actually looking for one of the 5 elements? (rather than perhaps a chakra, something you saw during meditation, in a dream, etc.)

[ryansmith]

in pathnotes glenn morris talks of how pink is associated with a loving kind of energy(pregnant mom's often contain this color in their aura) and Glenn had pink in his aura... so of the 5 elements i would say wind

[Mal]

I associate pink with an earthy nurturing feminine energy (I don't really work with 5 elements so not sure which "element" that is)

 

Why, this practice

 

Then send it [the divine light] down, from your feet Down to the very centre of Mother Earth. Attach it there to the very centre of the Earth. Feeling connected, grounded and safe.

 

Then bring it back up towards your feet. As it moves slowly up through your body, feel it gathering like a cloud, taking away all the stress and negativity, and the tension, anything not for your highest good, and dissipating it like smoke. See it rise up through the tip of your head, back to source where it is immediately cleansed and sent back down, this time as a glorious sparkling pink light, surrounding your entire body, even brighter than before. Feel the light build and grow inside and around you until you are glowing and radiating pink light.

 

For me the light seems to come back up as pink from the earth, rather than when it's reflected back down the 2nd time. Anyhow that's my pink association.

I have also heard of people "beaming down" specific light colors from a transpersonal point. I believe that is hermetics. But even I know that I just do what I do I dont know where it comes from

 

I know that is setting myself up for a being dissed but I think I have heard many different variations all have a similar modus operandi. Or at least from the ones i have seen.

Thanks for all the input. They all seem to make sense, but I think I would go with the

metal+fire+sexual energy

sounds right in this context and the fact that most of you associate this combination with porn also fits in quite nicely. But that is an effect not the question.

 

And what is that? I can't enter into the detail but I asked a question and I got a cryptic answer.

The rest I could decipher but the "pink dots"

part still baffled me.

 

I, for me, would have associated it with metal. But the fire part makes a lot of sense.

 

Thanks,

case closed.

Take care, Pietro

As with all things, it varies. I dont look at porn so there is no association there for me.

 

Pink is the favourite colour of all for little girls. It is heart colour without the flames.

[cheya]

Two random (but interesting) things on pink.

There is a color called Miller-Baker pink, approximately the color of bubble gum, that is used in prisons and psych wards due to its effect of calming people down who are out of control. If people are left in a room of that color for longer than a couple hours, they not only calm down, they start weeping! One explanation I read is that that color of pink is the color a fetus would see under high light conditions when still in the womb. (Interesting to think about little girls' bedrooms often painted pink!)

Completely unrelated. Maybe. Fabian Maman found that playing the tone A=440 hz creates the color pink in Kirlian photographs of blood cells. (In his book, he shows Kirlian pictures of blood cells responding to different musical notes or tones.) Maman writes that French physicist Joel Sternheimer says A=440 hz corresponds to the vibration of the electron. Its vibration attracts a concentration of electrons, recreating new conditions of life at a subatomic level. 440 hz then is a "powerful sound of harmonization" reflected visually as the color pink, which, according to Maman, always appears whenever A=440 is played, regardless of the instrument. Maman continues that pink is generally acknowledged to be the color of love, and that in Five Element Theory, the note A is linked with the energy of spring, with new birth, and strong creative power. (Fabian Maman, The Role of Music in the Twenty-First Century, p72-73. The Kirlian photgraphs are in this book as well.)

So the mama thing actually kind of fits.

Maman's picture of his 440-hz-evoked "Indian pink" looks a whole lot like Bubblegum pink.

What does a hard and fast position mean?(rhetoric)

 

Okay, I dont know if there are any books about this. Pink (if we are talking about energy) occurs at a level higher than postheaven

(physical) and exists at the preheaven (nonphysical). Since pink is preheaven it cannot be connected with any of the 5 elements.

 

So we are talking squares and circles here. They can communicate with each other but the 5 elements are on the physical plane only (postheaven)

 

So yes I was goofing off.

 

If you are looking for physical signs of pink, go to the toy department in a store and go down the girls toy aisle. Of course this last statement is just to add humor

[Aetherous]

Adeha,

 

That is very interesting.

 

Here is another interesting thing about pink: it was once used as a camouflage for navy ships during the dawn and dusk periods.

 

The specific color is called Mountbatten pink.
