Image and Colour Analysis

As seen on Close Up - colour is making a come back! Colour is one of our biggest forms of non verbal communication. It affects how we look and feel and how others feel about us. As artist Paul Klee said, “one eye sees and the other feels.” Choosing the right colours can make you feel more confident and optimistic and look younger, slimmer, healthier and more exciting. Harness the power of colour to enhance your natural beauty and transform your life.

Using the High and Low Contrast Luminal system I will identify which colour group best fits you. The High and Low Contrast Luminal system was developed from the four season's method Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn . Each season has people that look different from each other in that they can be high contrast (light skin, dark hair) or low contrast (light hair, light skin). This catches people who are on the verge of another season.

The High and Low Contrast Luminal system is derived from work of Albert Munsell - the famous American Colourist. The Munsell method says that everyone can wear five primary colours, Red, Yellow, Blue, Green and Voilet, depending on the undertone, value, and intensity of the colour.

Therefore unilke other colour analysis systems the High and Low Contrast Luminal system gives a wider array of color options and does not mis-analyse which colours suit you best – you can have confidence knowing that I’ll help you find your best-fit colours.

If you’ve had your colours analysed in the past it would be worth being re-analysed using the expanded High and Low Contrast Luminal system

Everyone can wear colour – but not everyone can wear the same value and intensity (or purity) of colour. Once your best fit colour category has been determined you will enjoy learning how simple it is to naturally and youthfully enhance your looks using the correct colours and application for your skin tone and facial features.

During your Colour Analysis Consultation you will learn:

  • What colours best suit your complexion, eye and hair colour

  • How to make your way through the hundreds of options available to find exactly the right colour to enhance your natural colouring.

  • Look more vibrant, younger, healthier, thinner and sexier!

Soul Colours

  • What is your purpose and mission in this lifetime?
  • What are the lessons and challenges ?
  • What is the energy and attributes of your birth?
  • What is the Colour of Your Soul?
  • How can you attract the things you desire?
  • How can you express who you really are and who you want to be confidently?

Our personal colours enhance our world

The colours we are attracted to over long periods of time are linked to our personality time, our strengths and weaknesses, as well as indicating our potential in life.

We thrive on being surrounded by colours – in our clothes, home décor, our gardens. When the sun is out and we are being fed by our “light” or life source, we feel wonderful. Lack of colour can make us feel down and depressed, think of how we feel when the sun disappears behind the clouds for a few days. Grey days tend to flatten our energy. We feel gray - our energy with draws. We just want to sleep and escape.

Colour expresses how we are feeling. When we are feeling great about ourselves we wear bright colourful clothes and when we are feeling flat or depressed we are drawn to drab colours. But did you know that we each have our own personal set of soul colours? These colours resonate with our true inner self. We have colours that nourish us, charge us up, calm us down, and one to inspire us?

These colour preferences, which often remain unchanged for our whole lives, are known as "soul colours." They indicate the intrinsic qualities and inner resources we have at our disposal and also the challenges we must face because of our deficiencies.

We all know that colour can affect our moods. We find some colours uplifting and inspiring, and others depressing. Analysing and clarifying your unique soul colours will help you harness the power of colour effectively.

The German Poet Novalis once wrote, “Fate and soul are two names for the same principal.” Reconciling our inner and outer worlds in often challenging for many people unfamiliar with deeper spiritual and psychological dimensions. We are complex creatures made up many facets, and all the different dimensions of the human psyche will seek, sooner or later, to find their place in the light of day and achieve expression in the outer world. When the time is right, certain aspects of you will strive for expression. In order for you to achieve that expression, you may need to create or find yourself drawn to, external situations which make you conscious of what you were unaware of before. Clarifying your soul colours will aid this process.

Our soul feeds on vibrations and your soul colour is the colour of the real you – both who you are and who you choose to be. You also have three secondary personal soul colours for inspiration, activity, and rest.

 

During your Soul Colour Consultation you will learn:

  • The psychology and spirituality of colour – their meanings and why we choose them
  • What the colours you wear most often reveal about you
  • Confirmation of your primary and secondary soul colours
  • What colours will help boost strengths and minimise areas of challenge
  • Strategies to help transform emotional energy
  • How to harness the psychology and spirituality of colour to suit your personality and achieve your career and/or life goals

Benefits

  • Gain valuable information about the nature of your soul, and its task in this life.
  • Heal yourself and others using colour. Positively affect your senses, alter your mood, and soothe your soul
  • Increased intuitive perception
  • Increased confidence and self-esteem
  • Enhanced ability to harness the law of attraction through a deepened, energetic signature
  • Increased well-being, vitality, personal and career success

How does it work?

  • Prior to your consultation I will send out a needs assessment and some simple but effective exercises to get you thinking about your life direction and the things that give you a sense of meaning and purpose
  • I’ll come to your home (preferable) or another location with my unique colour intuition and soul colour confirmation toolkit and other resources designed to ensure an accurate personal soul colour analysis.
  • Once we have confirmed your soul colours we’ll discuss how to integrate them into your life for maximum effect.
  • From there I’ll suggest some of my other services, including personal colour and body shape analysis, interior design and/or
