Colour and the medicinal use of herbs was associated with astrology by the ancient Egyptians and well established by the time of Hippocrates (460 BC) who said "a physician without a knowledge of astrology has no right to call himself a physician". The birth chart with associated archetypes is a fine indicator of weak points that are generally common to astrological signs this gives the colour therapist an indication where stress and imbalance are likely to occur.
The use of astrology to link every planet and Zodiac sign to a particular colour reveals a great deal about yourself in this life such your personal colouring i.e. your hair, eyes and skin, and certain personality traits, but also indicates your general strengths and weaknesses. This applies to physical as well as emotional weaknesses, using this knowledge in healing we know where we are vulnerable and can take preventative action that prevent many problems from occurring.
