What does the color purple mean?

An enigmatic color, purple gives off a mysterious aura that evokes the spirit, feelings and the strange. A symbol of spirituality and religion, it is worn by bishops and, in the Catholic liturgy, marks the seasons of Advent and Lent.

A blend of softness and dreams, it soothes and reassures: it brings serenity to those who have it in their home. Its flip side: melancholy, loneliness and secrecy. For a long time, it was the color of half-mourning, worn when black began to lighten.

👉 Purple was long a luxury, so costly were its dyes. In 1856, an 18-year-old English student, William Perkin, stumbled upon mauveine, the first synthetic dye: purple then took over Victorian fashion.

What purple says about your personality

If you love purple, you are determined and like to stay in control of your actions. You attach great importance to the spiritual; often with your head in the clouds, you are a dreamer who nonetheless values thought and reflection. Inspired by faraway places, you love to travel.

It is the favorite color of Sagittarius and Gemini, and it appeals to people who put spiritual values before material goods. Those who dislike it, on the contrary, are often wary, for fear of being taken advantage of.

Spirituality

A taste for the hidden meaning of things.

Idealism

Dreams that pull you upward.

Sensitivity

A fine intuition for people and places.

Watch out for

Need for control, impatience, jealousy.

Purple in spirituality: the color of awakening

Closely tied to spirituality, this shade brings harmony between the human and the divine. In the aura, purple indicates a balanced soul or a spirituality in full awakening; associated with power, it nonetheless soothes inner turmoil.

It is linked to the 7th chakra, Sahasrara, the crown chakra, at the top of the head; in its indigo shade, it joins the 6th, the third-eye chakra of intuition.

In Feng Shui, purple is linked to spirituality and the intellect: it is recommended in places of reflection, such as a study or a meditation corner, to help you focus more easily.

How to bring purple into your daily life

  • Place an amethyst in your meditation corner: the purple stone par excellence extends its color.
  • Slip a lavender sachet under your pillow or in a wardrobe: its scent and color invite calm.
  • Wear purple on a day when you need perspective and inspiration.

Seeking elevation? Discover the meaning of blue and red, the two colors that make it up, or of white, the other color of the crown.

Key takeaways 📌

  • The color of the spirit: spirituality, mystery, meditation and dreams.
  • A luxury gone mainstream: thanks to William Perkin's mauveine, in 1856.
  • The crown chakra: the 7th, and the 6th in its indigo shade.
