We all know different colours have different meanings, did you know that everyone has their own colours though? colours they’re more drawn to? according to “White Magic; Titania’s Book of Favorite Spells”, there are two different ways to find your colour: Zodiac signs and Birthdates. In this post, I’ll go over each one!
Colours by numbers
Everyone has a designated number, which can be found by adding the digits of the day you were born together (forgetting the month and year). E.g, someone born on the 12th of any month would add 1 and 2, getting 3, becoming the number that affects my day to day life the most. HOWEVER, the numbers 22, 11 and 29 are separate-DO NOT REDUCE/ADD THE NUMBERS. They have their own separate colours. At the bottom of this post, I’ll include the possible meanings of each colour, to try and help you see why it may be yours.
The guide goes like this:
1 (including 10)- Flaming red or apricot.
2-White or Salmon Pink
3-Ruby red or rose
4-Green or indigo
5-Cherry pink or wisteria
6- mustard or heliotrope
7-Magenta, brick or purple
8- Canary yellow, buff, or ivory
9- Lavender, olive or straw
11-Silver
22-Gold

I think there are a few different reasons to know “your” colour, such as knowing which colour of candle to use in a personal spell to enhance the effects. However, if the colour you got doesn’t resonate with you in anyway, I’d suggest using a candle in your favourite colour. I hope someone enjoyed reading all this!
