White Energy

White objects fully reflect and scatter all the visible wavelengths of light. This Achromatic color (devoid of light) shows us a powerful color associated with elegance, protection, purity, passiveness, the heavenly or divine. In color therapy it is used as a beneficial “color” for clearing, protection, shielding, cleansing and purifying.

Sunlight is visible as white and is actually a variety of different colors. You can separate white light into its component colors by passing the light through a prism. White represents idealism. White is the pure and perfect situation, background or outfit. It is a symbol of cleanliness. White is the color of wellness and recovery.

Every substance on earth contains color. Even the rays cast on earth by celestial bodies contain color in the form of white light. The rays of the sun contain seven different colors – violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. These are natural colors, which are highly beneficial to the maintenance of health and for healing diseases. Everyone of these colors come from white.

White in Healing

Next to the opposing power of black, white is the most grounding color on the planet. This color is most utilized for its enveloping, heaven-like qualities. It is used as a shielding and protective color.  We especially need natural light with its subtle variations that act on our well-being. For treating SAD, (seasonal affective disorder) white light therapy is often preferred over the full-spectrum light. The rhythm of dark and light from day and night and the full-spectrum of light is essential to our circadian rhythms (biological clock), endocrine, immune, sexual and nervous systems.

Visible White Light

Dispersion is the splitting up of white light into seven colors on passing through a transparent medium like a glass prism or raindrops through clouds. When white light is passed through this prism, a band of seven colors are formed, known as the spectrum of white light. The seven colors in the spectrum are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet respectively. The order of colors is constant, and each color has a unique signature identifying its location in the spectrum. The signature of color is the wavelength of light.

Spiritual Significance 

White is a symbol of spirituality, which represents purity, the intangible, and the invisible. It is a symbol you can feel but not really see. It can be acknowledged, but not really heard. It can be experienced, but not really found. It is truth. It is trust.  The purest form of white light is a symbol of protection, guidance, and strength. It is depicted around religious figures and icons. It is the “halo” or aura that is associated with the mysterious and the untouchable. White represents both ghost or spirit.

The Tao of White

Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese art of placement to enhance the flow of “vital life energy” or Qi. Practitioners believe that environments can be arranged and decorated in a way that maximizes the flow of Qi, resulting in improvements to health and happiness of those who live in that environment.  White is light, expansive and popular when setting the stage for a soothing, comfortable, and clean look. White’s softening, clear, and crisp associations are offered up in order to open a room, incorporate a pure sense of living, and imply a sense of perfection. White is a power statement, an authoritative gesture with a linked to spirituality, contemplation, light or modesty.

The White Mood

White has been described in a psychological sense as cold, bland, isolating, and sterile. A white room can seem spacious, but empty and unfriendly. Hospitals use white to create a sense of sterility.  Yet, white can also convey cleanliness, freshness, and simplicity. A blank slate symbolizes a new beginning or a fresh start. White personalities are the peacekeepers. White represents those with the ability to stay calm and balanced even in the midst of crisis. They have the gift of clarity and tolerance and are generally kind, adaptable, and good-listeners.  

Wearing White

White is soft, elegant, easy, and pure. Wearing white, shows competency.  White portrays innocence and cleanliness. The traditional wedding dress in the United States is white. It signifies to onlookers that the bride is “pure and wholesome”, “angelic and virtuous”, “honest and with true intention.”  Wearing white helps one create professionalism, goodness, trust and worthiness. Doctors, nurses, and dentists give a great example how white engenders trust.  Wearing white can represent a casual letting go or white tie elegance.

Whether its a kiss of vanilla, a wisp of snow, or a touch of Chantilly or old lace, white has as many variations as the monochromatic scale it comes from.
