Color orange: symbol of joy and energy

Orange is a strong color that combines the strength of yellow and red. 

Yellow’s stimulating effects are combined with red’s powerful emotional responses.

Orange is typically thought of as a cheerful and bright hue. 

The industry uses this powerful response at the same time to develop brands that command attention.

However the intense reaction is the primary reason for the intense love and hatred associated with this hue. 

A lot of people don’t really like it because although some think it to be a great color for his jovial and energizing temperament, others find it to be too intense.

Autmn and Halloween

Instinct is one of the primary reasons why color affects our thoughts and emotions, as we already stated in the article on color psychology (click here to read it).

Orange is associated with autumn because of how much the seasons affect our perception. 

The warmth of this color also link the drop in temperature during the change in season.

The prominence of orange throughout the Halloween season due to pumpkins further strengthens the direct association between orange and autumn.

Spiritual and friendly

In our view, orange even has a spiritual connection. 

Its strange color conveys signals of spiritual affinity to humans (an example is seen by monk that wear orange).

The energy of orange then represents even human connection and friendship.

In the end, the orange increases our hunger and metabolism since it is a warm hue (for more information on warm colors, check here). 

There is a sense of life and energy surrounding orange thanks to all these diverse effects it has.
