Color Psychology
I'm feel sympathy for people who do not see the full spectrum of color. I also feel a bit of frustration - or event resentment - when I observe photos of what some other life forms see for color. For example, I understand bees can see ultraviolet light, and that some flowers have "nectar guides" for bees that can only be seen in ultraviolet light. That said, they cannot see the color red. These things intrigue me. Further, when considering what we humans can perceive for color, it is interesting that different colors can stimulate various emotions. Color psychology is a theory that assigns emotional and psychological connotations between colors and emotions, many of which are universal because they have an effect on the brain, while others are merely cultural. The color red, considered a warm color, can evoke emotions ranging from feelings of comfort to hostility and anger. Lilith was known to have dressed in red at all times. It seems, in doing so, that she constantly fed her own negative emotional feelings. Do you think colors effect you?

“Well, I suppose we should go through everything here.”
“Yes . . . just one thing though.”
“What’s that?”
“The look of these walls!” Therese exclaimed. “It’s like blood is running down them. It gives me the creeps.” She shuddered. “What do you say we do this tomorrow—when we can let some real light into this place?”
Basha grinned. “Agreed.”
“You know, on second thought, maybe we should leave things here as they are for now. Then if—when—Mara comes back, she might take another look.”
“That works for me.”
