He has a website and newsletter; some links to his site follow.
Dr. Sircus was a colleague of my late mentor, Dr. Christopher Hills, and has begun posting a series of excellent articles there based on Dr. Hills work regarding human intelligence and consciousness, and the basic human drives corresponding to the chakras.
(Links follow for those articles, and the articles themselves; I will post the remaining ones as he posts them on his site--so far, the series is about halfway through.)
If "the proper study of mankind is man", then this is surely a subject of interest to anyone who studies psychology, astrology, human evolution, spirituality, etc..

Here's the first article, an introduction to the subject matter:

You Are a Rainbow – Seven Levels of Intelligence
http://cdn2.drsircus.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/colors.jpg
Posted by Dr Sircus on February 7, 2015
[QUOTE]Epistemology, the study of knowing how we know, is fundamental to focused intelligence. Howard Gardner of Harvard University, and author of Frames of Mind, identifies multiple levels of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, musical, bodily kinesthetic, interpersonal, and intrapersonal.
This chapter is the first of a series of eight that introduces the wonderful world of color psychology, or what I like to call perceptual psychology. It uses a color-coded model of intelligence developed to its maturity by Dr. Christopher Hills that mirrors nature’s tendency to reproduce everything in octaves of seven with repeating eighth notes. Each of the next seven parts of the series will cover one of the inner worlds of color that each one of us experience to one degree or another.
There are seven biological energy centers that are situated along the spine, which act as prisms to break down the background non-visible light into the spectrum colors. Each master endocrine gland is associated with a color, as are different traits in our personalities.
For most people the idea that colored light applied to the body can be a powerful key to unlock the mysterious interactive connection between body mind and spirit is something new. Light and color propels our evolution, our physical healing and defines who and what we are. It is the light we follow when we leave this body and life on earth.
The whole confusion between life and death comes from too much fixation on the body and not enough attention to the fact that we have a light body which is actually called by the ancients the Rainbow Body because it both absorbs and radiates out light and color, which can be easily measured with today’s technology as a matter of routine.

Color Psychology offers us the clearest key to understanding the mind and how it functions and thus how it can be used. Dr. Max Luscher brought color psychology into the modern world over fifty years ago and his work was brought to fruition by Dr. Hills in his work Nuclear Evolution.
We are rainbows and our minds operate and resonate differently with each spectral color. In fact, each color shapes the function of each level of mental activity. Epistemology is the study of how we know and perceive things. Perceptual psychology is crucial to us simply because this is the knowledge that illustrates how we perceive, or more importantly, misperceive ourselves, others, and the universe at large. Everything that we know and think and experience is a result of some perception that we make with our consciousness.
Our Rainbow Body is in reality, the perceptual clothing our souls or beings wear while inhabiting this planet called Earth. It is very interesting to note that the following map of human consciousness by Dr. Hills mirrors Gardner’s work at Harvard University on multiple levels of intelligence.
Red – Physical Intelligence – The ability to perceive the universe and understand it through the five senses. Knowing how to take care of one’s body and health, exercise, diet, sport, healing and medical intelligence.
Orange – Social Intelligence – The ability to associate and understand oneself in relationship to others. Leadership abilities, the ability to nurture relationships and maintain friendships, conflict resolution skills, and social analysis, the ability to understand other people.
Yellow – Intellectual Intelligence – Our rational and analytical ability to organize information. Logical thinking ability, problem solving, sequential organization, the ability to see inconsistencies, weigh opposites and make judgments.
Green – Emotional Intelligence – Also known as heart intelligence, this is the science of understanding one's emotions and feelings which mix all the other levels of intelligence into what might be called a “feeling” intelligence.
Blue – Conceptual Intelligence – The perceptual world of memory, ideas, concepts and meaning. The ability to form mental models that incorporates entire fields of information.
Indigo – Intuitive Intelligence – The ability to cut through ‘mental’ fields of knowing to the essence. Intuition is the perceptual power of direct perception. Here we just simply know without knowing how we know. Einstein was a champion of the intuition. He said, “I think with intuition.”
Violet – Imaginative Intelligence – Is in one aspect an aspect of our highest intelligence, the ability to form and communicate with images. This is the level of creative intelligence, the ability to form something from nothing. Howard Gardner refers to this as spatial, musical and artistic intelligence. With the primordial power of the imagination we constantly recreate external reality somewhere between our two ears. We literally see with our imaginations.
Color Psychology is about how our personalities are structured and formed around our conscious or unconscious absorption of light. Our vehicles of light or "light body" are absorbing the cosmic light through the prism of the chakra system. We absorb, mix, and eventually re-radiate out this light. This process that is going on deep within us and makes us very much who and what we are.

In ancient times the Rainbow Bridge was a symbol for the territory we eventually had to cross in our spiritual evolution.
The chakra system is the lung of our light body. The seven biological chakras that our situated along the spine act like prisms to break down the cosmic light into the spectrum colors. Usually each personality is breathing fully on only one or two chakra levels so you might find one person predominately intellectual, the next, an artist working on the violet or imaginative level and so on. There are literally billions of combinations and the most conscious person has opened all the chakras or levels of perception and plays on them (the mind) like a conductor would on his orchestra. Our experience in life is determined largely by the color levels that are functioning; which chakra is most open, and which is most closed.

Christopher Hills was my mentor and it was he who saved me from my own ignorance. His thousand page books Nuclear Evolution and Rise of the Phoenix explain the heart of the subjects above but what was most important about his work was getting beyond the mind altogether. He was the one 30 years ago that taught me that the heart was much more than just a pump.
The point is that we are light, we eat it in the form of food, we absorb it directly from the environment via the sun, and we process it not only on physical levels (vitamin D production) but also other more subtle levels inside the chakra system and in our astral bodies.
My life was changed only two years ago when a cancer patient gave me a BioMat, which I have used ever since. It radiates out far infrared light into the body all night, and though the effect is mostly physical, it radiates a warmth that touches us emotionally, thus nurturing our non-physical being. Everyone loves them because secretly we all love the light and its warmth.
Light is the Secret of Life
The use of color and light in healing and in cancer treatment is important and should not be overlooked. So step out into the sun today and realize its blessing in your heart, mind and soul. It is not possible to survive for long without the benefit of the sun.
Personally, I start the day solar gazing when at my Sanctuary, meaning I eat the sun with my eyes when it comes over the horizon early in the morning. The Egyptians knew what they were doing when they worshiped the Sun, the giver of life on earth. However, there is the cosmic light that comes from all points of the universe converging right this second in your brain, forming your awareness along the seven color levels, even if you are hiding in a very dark cave.

[Red Level of Awareness – Physical Consciousness
http://drsircus.com/spiritual-psychology/red-level-awareness-physical-consciousness


Touch can be a communication of love and is a most
powerful way to communicate empathy, friendship, approval,
When we enter this world we enter the physical universe, the world of our bodies with all its lovely senses. On this level we just love to touch one another so here we find the powerful urge to mate. Red is the sex drive, the urge to procreate. Red is physical, pure action devoid of any forethought.
The Red level person just jumps into the thick of things. And the time world or time sense of this level of awareness is NOW! It is the level of our senses…. taste, sight, hearing, feeling through touch, and our sense of smell. The red level seeks stimulation through these senses and will often go to extremes in this regard, but in essence such a person experiences an incredible vitality through action. As such red is the source of vital energy, it is the base chakra in which the basic kundalini energy arises.
The red level also represents our basic instinct for survival, the fight or flight response. We find our brains processing information on the most primitive level as a reflex action. It is the quick world of stimulus response. There is no thinking or higher processing of information going on. We see a beautiful woman, all her lovely curves, and we respond, we salivate, and we feel this chakra pulling on our groins.
Women do this also but to a much lesser degree then men, depending on how much red level energy dominates their consciousness. This enjoyment of the senses is fine as long as we do not get lost in it. For some this is the world of the devil and must be avoided and controlled at all cost. For others it is the key to energy and incredible vitality and with its animation they fly their kites high into the sky. The red level brings a refreshing spontaneity and an action oriented zest to life.
Red is the World of Manifestation.
Most individuals emanating energies predominantly in the Red band of consciousness are concerned with the intensity of experience in the time framework of the immediate moment. These people will have little awareness of the past or future and their inner world will depend entirely on stimulation from physical inputs either to do with contest in the dominating of the physical environment or sexual love, petting, etc.
The field where intimacy, love and sex all come together is in the world of touch. Touch is such a basic need that people easily forget it or do not see it as a separate, distinct, essential need. The hunger for touch is a real human need almost as important as food. And just as intimacy can be seen differently from love and sex, though they often combine the two, touch also is an activity in itself and can be a wholly satisfying experience as people who give and receive massage well know.
A person in the red band of consciousness perceives reality through his senses – not through his feelings, nor his thoughts, nor his memories or concepts or imaginings, but through his senses, and in particular, through the sense of touch. On this level a person’s inner experience of what he senses is dependent on outside physical stimulation.
The most important way we give love to a baby is through touch. For babies, and the rest of us, love is equated deeply with touch. The problem for adults. though, comes with the intense association we make between touch and sex. Just like we fear intimacy we fear touch because sexual issues intervene in our consciousness. Clinically, cutaneous deprivation, (the lack of touch) leads to a host of emotional, physical and developmental problems in young and old alike. Research has shown that there are distinct biochemical differences between people who experience touch and those who are severely deprived of it.
It is thought that most of the human race still identifies predominately with the red level. Christopher Hills said that up to 90% of people were mostly red level. His book Nuclear Evolution plunges deep into the secrets of color and the personality.
Nuclear Evolution
Love on the red level: The athlete, in love with the energy of his body, leaps forward to win the race. The climber tunes to the exhilaration of Nature’s upward thrust and reaches the summit. Lovers worship the essence of life through the pure energy of sexuality. The love of clearly defined action. Love of the divine present moment. Love of the touch of tenderness and love. Love of physical intimacy.
Red Level Fear: Fear of bodily harm. For the red level person, at a certain moment, just before the successful completion of a physical operation, fear flashes in, and the confident thrust that both initiated and sustained the original energy and effort is balked and braked so that the final stage of the undertaking, where absolute positivity is essential, is never completed. The climber, the runner, the racing car driver and the boxer and all the others who compete in the physical or athletic arena know this "flash of fear" that breaks the concentration, shakes the equilibrium and causes the head to turn in a fatal backward look.
Aggression on the red level is physical. A person may come up to you and his only thought of aggression is to punch you in the nose. A bully is often like this. He wants to dominate you physically. The same need to dominate applies to men who want to grab a woman. We can find this aggression in children as well. If we go to an undisciplined nursery we may find the boys pouring salt on the hair of the girls and the girls pounding on the piano and snatching crackers out of the other children’s mouths. In any case, aggression on this level is the drive to manipulate people or things by dominating them. Aggression is not limited to mankind. We find it in apes, dogs, lions and birds. Lions will kill each other if they invade one another’s pride or territory. Birds will attack if you come within a certain distance of their nest. The main point is that aggression on the Red level is a direct, physical, skin-to-skin enterprise.

The Red Card in the Luscher Color Test
The red of the test, with its admixture of yellow giving it an orange hue, represents an energy expending physiological condition. It speeds up the pulse, raises blood pressure and increases the respiration rate. Red is the expression of vital force, of nervous glandular activity, and so it has the meaning of desire and of all forms of appetite and craving. Red is the urge to achieve results, to win success; it is hungry to desire all those things that offer intensity of living and fullness of experience. Red is impulse, the will-to-win, and all forms of vitality and power from sexual potency to revolutionary transformation. It is the impulse towards active doing, toward sport, struggle, competition, eroticism and enterprising productivity. Red is "impact of the will" or "force of will" as distinct from the green "elasticity of the will."
Red corresponds symbolically to the blood of conquest, to the Pentecostal flame igniting the human spirit, to the sanguine temperament and to masculinity. Its sensory perception is appetite, its emotional content is desire, and its organs are the striated (voluntary) muscles, the sympathetic nervous system and the organs of reproduction. Thus, physical and nervous exhaustion, heart disorders and loss either of potency or of sexual desire are often to be seen accompanying a rejection of red.
Sexuality
Sexuality is one of the most important issues of the red level. Sex lies at the very root of our existence and when that root is rotten the rest of our vehicle of consciousness is prone to a multitude of disease states and psycho spiritual distortions. Christopher Hills said in The Rise of the Phoenix: “A society in which freedom becomes license also loses a centeredness which fosters true integrity and allows weakness and indulgence to pervert our true purpose. In an individual, the thin line between self-acceptance and self-indulgence makes the difference between integrity of character and lack of character. And the same is true in society. The same kinds of rationalizations that come into the mind of an indulgent individual also leads a whole society down the subtle pathways of inner decay, so gradually that the deterioration is hardly noticed. Society pays a high price for this victory of weakness over self-discipline. The price is that our children grow up to think, 'Anything goes', that there are no limits.”
Spirituality is important but when it itself cuts off the sexual nature of being it becomes as damaging to the soul as lustful sex.
When sexuality is channeled only through the body and senses it easily pulls us down into darker and heavier patterns of consciousness that we call lust. The most negative aspect of sexuality is adultery; the situation where we let our senses and lusts dominate our consciousness. (All the other chakra levels) The spiritual as opposed to legal definition of adultery is when our sexual actions adulterate our consciousness. This adulteration is characterized by a loss of our center, a loss of peace. Adultery is a word normally reserved for when we break our exclusive contract with our legal mate. But it can apply anytime we approach another person with lust. Even our own wife or husband can be approached this way.
When we learn to combine our sexuality with our beings, we will enter the kingdom of heaven.
Perfect Sex is dependent on perfect love, which is dependent on perfect oneness, which is dependent on perfect communication, which is dependent on our devotion to the pure vulnerability of our beings.
With perfect love comes perfect sex.
The problem with the senses cut off from higher consciousness is that they have no real intelligence, love or caring in and of themselves. Thus, lust is selfish and as such usually unloving. It is not the objective of this book to condemn sexuality in any way but when lust adulterates our souls we lose the heart connection with ourselves, with the other, and with God. It is really difficult for men to be pure with their sexuality because they are so prone to lust and commit adultery with their eyes without control and this has never been as true as it is today where the eyes are trained from youth to lust after beauty by television and a host of sexual magazines. Our inner being does have a hard time when the senses hunger for sexual objects and objects of beauty.
Anger
Anger has a lot to do with either the expression of power or the helplessness we experience when we are confronted with other peoples’ power and their abuse of it. Definitions of anger vary from being a body tension with a cognitive view of the world as being frustrating, irritating, insulting, unfair or assaulting to a literal demand from our internal being to act accordingly. The biological or evolutionary view of anger is one of preparing the entire organism for rapid response to threatening situations. With anger, the blood flows more quickly as the heart rate increases and the rush of adrenaline generates the pulse necessary for vigorous action.
The word anger really covers a lot of ground, from indignant to distressed, annoyed, aggravated, keyed-up, intense, frustrated, ardent, zealous, and even excited. When we talk about anger we are talking about a family of strong ‘hot’ feelings.
People have a very strong tendency to judge anger. We assume that the angry person is out of control of their ego not understanding what the word ego means and what the purpose of anger is; what it expresses. The minute we judge another’s anger we actually collapse into our own ego sense of separation for often when a person shows their anger they are really exposing their vulnerability. We think of vulnerability as something softer than anger as when a person shows us their tears. But the angry person can also be exposing themselves to hurt and rejection because people quickly tend to judge their anger.
Anger shows a ‘strong’ displeasure about something.
Reject not anger for it is expressing more than we imagine.
What that displeasure is about is very important. If we get angry because we are not getting our way it is one thing. If we are unhappy with another because they are not doing what we like, or things are not going exactly according to our personal plan, we have the smallest self, letting off steam. But we also have the kind of anger that is aroused by something unjust, mean, or unworthy. We call this indignation but it is still a form of anger. Modern psychology understands that the universal trigger for anger is the sense of being endangered. This sense of endangerment is not limited to mere physical threats. It can include threats to self-esteem and dignity. When we feel that we are being treated unjustly or rudely or being insulted or demeaned there is a natural and often deep response within us.

Yellow Level – Intellectual Intelligence
http://drsircus.com/spiritual-psychology/yellow-level-intellectual-intelligence



Yellow is organized, logical, linear and intellectual. Yellow asks a lot of questions to find out who, what, where, when and why. Yellow is self-expressive, eloquent, and can rationalize anything. When yellow is positive, yellow loves the excitement of change, and the mental stimulation of problem solving. Yellow is negative when it is overly critical, separative, verbally aggressive, and bogged down in nit-picky details. This is when the "head" reigns at the expense of the heart. The yellow level brings clarity and order to its communications. Yellow level people tend to be upbeat and optimistic when they are not being overly judgmental and critical. They have a keen capacity for understanding inconsistencies in life and in other people.
For decades psychology has tried to simplify things down to the right brain – left brain model or rational vs emotional minds. In Color Psychology we are working on a more dynamic model that includes seven levels of perception, seven brains. Four of these seven levels are concerned with those aspects of self we “normally” relate to as mental: the intellect, conceptual, intuitive and imaginative minds. But as we can see each level has its mental components and structures of personality formation. In color psychology we are breaking each level down to its most basic functioning, yet in reality each level exists within the other. Concentric circles or shells within shells, they each interpenetrate the other though we can see clearly how each level operates independently.
On this third level of awareness or third brain function of the intellect and rational mind we meet up with that self that just loves to make contrasts and do analysis. The development of this level of awareness gave organisms the ability to adapt to change. Great changes took place in the environment from the times when great lizards roamed the earth and climbed out of the water. To adapt we must have an organ of comparison. An organism must be able to weigh choices and make decisions. We know when a thing is heavy or light by balancing weights in each hand and feeling the resistance in the muscles of our arms. Something in our consciousness is able to gauge the differences and to discriminate similarities. This faculty enables us to adapt to different environments and also to form some comparative knowledge of our social life over millions of years of evolution. As the need for this faculty became greater, the new brain developed which could make discriminating choices between either/or, hot and cold, long and short and be able to arrange for ordered sequences of behavior, rather than merely responding to stimuli or a certain level and thereby expect a chain of events. The faculty which allows man to adapt to change is his ability to progress events forward in time, based on what has already happened or what is happening now.
The Cerebellum is the first of all the brains to think in terms of opposites: light and dark, soft and hard, hot and cold, heavy and light. This mental faculty can be used in service of the brains and our consciousness’s higher faculties or it can remain cut off from them and remain rather dull. Without the imagination for instance the intellect is very dry, but with it the intellect becomes a very sharp instrument because it is linked with "higher" reasoning.
Yellow Level of Awareness Negative Personality Patterns
· feels deprived of recognition
· aloof
· expects critical rejections
· dogmatic
· opinionated
· isolates self from activities of others
· fears group power, cowardly
· gets bogged down in details
· confines life to narrow view of intellect
· always planning, never manifesting
· needs change and novelty
· needs mental excitement
· needs closeness and affection
· feels self to be unerring
· unable to feel
· separative
· judgmental
· critical
· nit-picky
· verbose
· paranoid
· conflict between drive for fulfillment through change and vague sense of emptiness
· mental bully
Most of the above are manifestations of states of separation.
Yellow Level Fear – Fear of Rejection and Dissatisfaction
This is the level of the ego with all its expectations, so whatever deflates or wounds the Ego or disappoints its expectations is to be feared. Sometimes the expectations are laid on another person who is "expected" to perform in a certain way; when he or she does not do this then the Yellow level person feels let down and even betrayed. Behind the feeling of betrayal is the deep fear of total rejection.
Yellow Level Aggression
Here the aggression is channeled into an intellectual undermining of another person by various techniques. A person who does this tries to denigrate the knowledge of someone else so that they can appear correct. This is done in a variety of ways. For example, if a person wishes to confuse or destroy the arguments of another, he uses subtle logical word play or semantic traps. He can ask another person to define what they mean by every word that they say and then the person gets so busy doing that, that everything he or she says needs a new definition. This gets to be a sport among intellectuals and is the basis of sophistry, logical expertise, high polish and skill at word play. It’s where the word "sophisticated" comes from. Such people try to expose inconsistencies but are unable to resolve paradoxes themselves. Thus, they can be utterly destroyed intellectually by someone who can.
Luscher Color Test
Yellow is the brightest color in the test and its effect is light and cheerful. Because red appears denser and heavier than yellow it is stimulative; because yellow is lighter and less dense than red it is more suggestive than stimulative. For instance, while yellow increases blood pressure, pulse and respiration rates in a manner similar to red, it is noticeably less stable in the way in which it does so. Yellow’s principle characteristics are its brightness, its reflectivity, its radiant quality and its non-substantial cheerfulness. Yellow expresses uninhibited expansiveness, a loosening or relaxation.

Green Level of Emotional Intelligence – Security Consciousness

http://drsircus.com/spiritual-psychology/green-level-emotional-intelligence-security-consciousness#utm_source=Dr+Sircus+Newsletter&utm_campaign=1e8f7f49f2-Article_256&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ea98c09673-1e8f7f49f2-10646942&mc_cid=1e8f7f49f2&mc_eid=41e174c9cd


It is in the fourth brain or fourth chakra that we best see the close correlation between consciousness and matter because the secretion of hormones in the brain creates the emotions we mostly identify with as "me." This is the center of the brain and that part of our consciousness that mixes all the signals in the brain and all the feelings and perceptions in our consciousness into a feeling of secure vs insecure.
The central location of the fourth chakra (brain hypothalamus and thalamus centers) is crucial to understanding its function in our awareness. It is the central focus for feelings that are coming from all the other levels of consciousness, from all the colors.
The color of our security center is green. Both Christopher Hills and Dr. Max Luscher confirmed through separate approaches a truth that is evidenced also in language. “Green with envy,” for example, represents what happens to the skin color when a person flashes deep insecurity.
This green level security center represents the universal need in nature to gather from the environment wellbeing, sustenance, love, energy, and all those things that make life possible. It is the basic drive of green plants to reach for the light. Humans, instead of reaching for the light reach out for another person with which they hope to complete themselves. Or they spend lots of time going after money thinking it will bring them security in this emotional center but no matter how much they make it is never enough.
When there is a hole in the security center it is very difficult to repair it. Many souls are crushed from the severe lack of love from their parents and this leaves them with a deep and penetrating sense of insecurity that they seek to fill up in many ways.
Plants love to turn toward the light, they stretch for it, and so do we. We want to gather all that love, that sustenance, the energy in our relationships. It is a natural drive yet on the deepest level most often frustrated in childhood and few are the beings that are brave enough to go back into this part of being and heal it.
The key word for this center is security vs. insecurity. Expressed in terms of the chakra energies we see that the fourth chakra regulates the energy or life force of all the chakras. It is also the barometer or something like a sluice valve. When something is happening on one of the other levels, the green level responds according to its present state of security or insecurity. If we are processing a deep decision on the yellow level, that process is passed through the security center to check out our feelings and the implication for future feelings.
This is the area where we feel threatened or confirmed in our being because this is where we "feel" our being or sense of self.
Many years ago I wrote in my book that simple movements into the heart center of feeling can provide breakthroughs and release of emotional blocks. Though it takes effort to shift into our hearts it is still the shortest line between two points. Anything that directly increases a person’s capacity to feel and face difficult feelings and emotions will increase overall health.
The healthy human heart needs warmth, is warmth and can give warmth to others. The deeper we dive into the heart and open to its super intelligent ways the more balanced, coherent, and healthy our bodies, minds and emotions become.
Marketing firms have long understood that the use of certain colors evokes emotional responses in many people. Without even realizing it, our mood every day is affected by the colors that are used around us in signs, labels, packaging, room colors, lighting, and clothing colors. The color green is especially important, for it sits at the center of the rainbow of life.
Green is life and signifies growth, renewal, health, and the natural environment. With both a warming and cooling effect, green denotes balance, harmony, and stability. Green is a restful color with some of the same calming attributes of blue. Currently the most popular decorating color, green symbolizes Nature. It is the easiest color on the eye and can improve vision. It is a calming, refreshing color. People waiting to appear on TV sit in "green rooms" to relax. Hospitals often use green because it relaxes patients.
The origin of the word ‘green’ goes back to the old Teutonic root ‘grô’, meaning to grow. Plants use solar energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into life-giving oxygen and starch. The magic substance at the heart of this process called photosynthesis is the green pigment chlorophyll, converting sun rays into other energy forms utilized in complex chemical reactions. And at the center of chlorophyll is magnesium, which turns out to double as the best medicine for the heart while it doubles as the ‘Lamp of Life'.
Positive healing effects of the color green were already recognized by Hildegard von Bingen, a famous medieval healer. Color Therapist Elizabeth Harper writes, “Green is useful for calming and balancing the heart, and is supposed to influence regeneration of cells and elimination of toxins.” In the late 19th century, Dr. Edwin Babbit published The Principles of Light and Color. This USA-based author attracted worldwide attention due to his theory of healing with color.
Dr. Max Luscher, a professor of psychology at Basle University in Switzerland, claimed that color preferences indicated the state of mind and glandular balance, and could be used for physical and psychological diagnosis. In 1948 he published his Luscher Color Test which offered doctors and psychologists a quick, easy and reliable test using color.
Optometrists and ophthalmologists of the College of Syntonic Optometry, as well as psychologists like Steven Vasquez and various other neuroscientists, have developed, researched, and supported the healing work with color. The greatest master of color and perceptual psychology was actually the same man who brought spirulina (spirulina is as green as it gets) to the world, Dr. Christopher Hills. In his works Nuclear Evolution and Rise of the Phoenix he laid out the complete spiritual psychology of light and color.
Green is the most restful color that exists. Blackboards in modern schools and pool tables are green because this color has a pleasant effect on our eyes and contrasts nicely with other colors so we can concentrate on the essential. The color green has a wide variety of effects. People report that the color makes them feel happy, optimistic, and connected with the earth, content and calm, "feeling free and that I can do anything I want to do, feeling soothed by green, making me feel alive, bright, feel relieved, calm, comfortable". Green is a calming color; it makes people feel serene, peaceful, but not necessarily happy. If green is not the correct color to apply to a particular child, instead of these positive effects we will get a reaction that will make it obvious this is not the correct color or that a child is just not ready for it.
Research conducted at Washington State University and published in the journal Horttechology suggests that people in rooms with a lot of greenery can tolerate more physical pain than those in surroundings without any plants. 200 people were tested for how long they could keep their hands submerged in ice water. The findings reinforce previous studies that found that people work more efficiently when they can see houseplants, and patients recover more quickly from surgery and use fewer drugs when they are in a room with a green view.

In a world that has largely betrayed the essence qualities the color green represents; in a cold sterile world where the sensitivity and vulnerability of being are hardly understood; where doctors routinely betray these qualities of being during child delivery and after with vaccines loaded with chemical poisons, it behooves parents to compensate with massive attention to the color green and the kind of therapeutic healing touch that generates it.
In my work, at least half of the students with reported reading or
copying problems show an immediate improvement when they find and
use the appropriate color. One in ten of these students absolutely
need color for reading, writing and copying virtually all of the time.

Judith Sweeney[1]
The Irlen Institute[2] and 84 affiliated clinics throughout the world offer services for individuals suffering from sensory overload. The patented Irlen Method utilizes colored filters worn as glasses to reduce or eliminate perceptual sensitivity and sensory overload. The use of color to eliminate perceptual problems began as a federal research project in 1981.
From Christopher Hills Rise of the Phoenix:
The time framework for the heart center is past, present and future since our feelings of insecurity respond to all three lower brains and go back and forth in time in a linear fashion very much like the third brain. The third brain, arranging things in the logic of past, present, and future appears more mechanical, but really the fourth brain is just as much a computer even though it may not seem so because it is shifting in the realm of feelings. The difference between the shifting time worlds of the third level from the fourth level can be explained by an example we are all familiar with.
Let’s say you fall in love. You want to possess the love object for yourself very much. The possessive feeling mounts to an obsessive desire. Even when the love object is away, the heart center grows fonder and founder of the missing love object. As long as you know he or she is still yours and there is no competition you feel reasonably secure and elated at being in love. But if your hear your beloved is seeing someone else or even if you see him or her look at someone else in a certain way you feel a threat to your well-being. Flutters of insecurity go up an down your solar plexus which controls level three, and a dull ache begins to accumulate on your sternum bone in the region of the heart. This love pain brings stress that creates emotional insecurity on all other levels of being, so that life begins to be very painful. In fact the pain of a bleeding heart far exceeds that of a bleeding body. At this level of threat, your time world suddenly shifts from the bliss of possessing the love object in the now and projects into the future which appears bleak at the thought of loss. All of this brings a feeling of insecurity about the future and we begin to imagine what it would be like to live without our loved one. Ninety percent of all songs on the radio refer in some way either to this feeling of pain or to the instant bliss of possession.
So in essence green is vibrant with life force, love and healing energy. Positive green is secure, nurturing, self-assertive, powerful, generous and openhearted. When green is negative, it’s "green with envy", jealous, possessive (MINE!), insecure, attached to possessions and love objects, mistrustful of life, and needing confirmation and reassurance from others. When the green level heart flows out, its generosity touches all it meets.
The Luscher Color Test
The green of the test contains a certain amount of blue and is the test-color representing the physiological condition of "elastic tension." It expresses itself psychologically as the will in operation, as perseverance and tenacity. Blue-green is therefore an expression of firmness, and of constancy.
From Christopher Hills Nuclear Evolution:
Green Level Fear – Fear of Loss – It is at this level of security and attachment to things possessed that fear probably operates most powerfully.
Green Level Love – love of a secure condition, love of treasured things and people. Attached love. Most positive expression is seen in the acquisitive man who knows that one can only enjoy if there is no attachment. So he collects his rare and beautiful works of art but can let them go tomorrow. And the true lover wants the entire world to love what he loves, so jealousy dies and fear of loss is frizzled up in love’s all-consuming fire of union with all.
Green Aggression – Here aggression moves up from just hitting a person or trying to dominate them intellectually to possessiveness and jealousy. Here a feeling of insecurity comes over a person, and he feels he is going to lose something. If you found your wife in the arms of another you might beat her, right? Why, because you try to control her and prevent her from going somewhere else. This is so you can feel secure. Anger gets transferred to a sense of possessiveness. This is aggression. Such a person is aggressively seeking that which will give him a feeling that he has what he wants. Jealousy wants to possess for yourself what you’re not sure of. It is certainly not letting things be as they are, and not allowing freedom to be – that’s aggression! Aggression wants things the way we want them.
Green and Autism

If we could only open these kids’ hearts, many of their problems with social isolation would vanish.

Dr. Jaquelyn McCandless
Research into the relationship between the color green and autism showed that the color was related to speech skill activity and that ample green showed balance, fewer emotional impulses, and a simple uncomplicated nature.
This is important, for increased movements into the depths of heart-felt feelings increases our capacity to care and to love, as well as improves our overall state of physical health and sense of well being. Of course the heart Dr. McCandless is talking about here is far more than a biological physical pump that mechanically beats billions of times within the context of a lifetime.
Just recently Dr. McCandless, author of Children with Starving Brains wrote me saying, “These kids (with autism) try to make sure nothing green ever passes their lips, and most hate vegetables, particularly green ones.” My first response to her was, “This translates to me to mean emotional intelligence shut down, separation, not wanting to be touched, not grounded, probably hypothalamic involvement.” So I asked her, “Does this make any sense to you? Does it fit in with your clinical experience?” Her response, “It does fit in, and describes autism to a T!” What I was hearing from Dr. McCandless was these kids are deficient in green and are actually actively rejecting green, the color they need the most.
[1] Onion Mountain Technology. http://onionmountaintech.com/ I have noted certain tendencies for color preferences among some disability groups. These are just tendencies, but they provide teachers and therapists with “someplace to start.” For example, I have found: Students with ADD and ADHD in particular often prefer very stimulating colors like hot pink or fluorescent lime green. Many students with reading disabilities without an attention component prefer one of the blue filters. Students with autism who are using communication symbols often seem to attend and track from picture to picture better when the background (paper) color is yellow. Students with Down Syndrome often like to type on the computer with a red background. Students who need to self-monitor and keep themselves calm often choose light green or blue backgrounds or paper. Students with emotional problems very often chose dark color filters and backgrounds on the computer. Students with visual impairments are often drawn to yellow filters or yellow text on a navy or gray background on the computer.
[2] Helen Irlen of the Irlen Institute found that the use of special color filters helped some people who had consistently been unable to learn how to read easily and successfully. The use of colored pieces of clear plastic created a visual environment that allowed them to learn to read. Her color filters come in nine different shades. The filter is placed over the page of text and if the color is right for the user, he or she is finally able to see the text clearly, distinctly, and consistently. Eventually, Irlen also included the use of color in specially created eyeglasses.

There is so much information in these articles that can be discussed on many levels, but it's difficult to do that unless it's all here.
Otherwise, jumping from this thread to the the site where the articles originate and quoting from that separate site makes the process very confusing.
That's why I'm posting it all here.
Hopefully, it will be considered important enough to allow the rules to bend.
Dr. Hills thought that if we could all learn how to recognize the different levels and how they shape our inner and outer worlds, it would help greatly in bringing peace to the planet.

update: This might be a good place to interject another article from Dr. Sircus's site on a related subject, the ego, and what Dr. Hills had to say about it.

The Ego as the Root of Conflict
http://cdn2.drsircus.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/hills.jpg

Christopher Hills and his Creative Conflict Process
Most people think of the ego as something they value, their individual separate uniqueness, and they cannot distinguish it from their real being. The idea of “getting rid of” or “working on” the ego seems foreign to them. They ask, “Is there any advantage in transcending the ego? How can it be beneficial to constantly look at my motives, my inner thoughts, the subtle undercurrents of my self-centeredness generated by my ego? What is the advantage of being egoless? Can I really gain anything by giving up looking out for Number One? Look around. How many people really want to give up their egos? I’ll be stupid if I do. I want to develop the strength of my ego, not reduce it.”
But what is ego really? It is the sense of “I” sitting inside our own idea of who we are. It is the shell which contains that consciousness which is in everything. The seed or nut of consciousness must express through growing into some form or body. In getting a body this seed of our being wants to be somebody unique and special, separate from other bodies and from the environment, “That’s me,” it says, until the ego, the “self-sense”, realizes that by giving up its narrow idea of separateness, it gains a much greater sense of individuality and fulfillment and a much expanded consciousness. By giving up our separateness, we must give up our selfishness, that part that harms others, knowingly or unknowingly. Rather than being a weak, unattractive and spineless state, egolessness is knowing who you really are. It is becoming one with everyone and feeling that the whole environment belongs to you. Supreme selflessness builds tremendous strength, joy and courage. But it terrifies every bit of egotism left inside us.
Creative Conflict challenges every person to confront his or her ego position that separates being from being, because it is ego –revealing. It tackles the very causes that separate human consciousness from total oneness. The essentially spiritual structure of the technique we call Creative Conflict has nothing to do with religion or any belief system, but is just the pure relationship between energies. You can refer to my earlier book Nuclear Evolution for more explanation of the nature of these personal energies, and the link between ego, light and consciousness. Given these facts of nature, it seems a bit absurd that so few people are really willing to work on their ego—that self-centered identity which binds and limits their real potential and personal energy. Most people would rather cling to the ego as a self-identity or escape into some heavenly euphoria or into sense pleasures. But in working directly with the confrontation of our ego we release the energies that block our fulfillment. We release them permanently into a greater potential, transport our consciousness into greater light and expanded understanding.
The first step in dissolving the separating self-sense of ego is to get out of our little self and inside the inner worlds of others. All the new beginning personal growth methods available are good (such as Gestalt, psychosynthesis, EST, co-counseling, PET, etc.) for they enable us to begin to take this step. But we must then go much farther to develop our own evolution and to deepen relationships by learning to watch and confront the ego’s subtle unconscious motivations and reactions. There are many, many group process methods available today. Most fall under some branch of humanistic psychology or therapy. Some are short-term intensives. They do enhance awareness of self and others’ inner worlds to varying in degress, but few have the basic purpose of penetrating the ego, which is the crux of human destiny on earth.
One of the proofs of this statement is that if you put the skilled facilitators of the majority of these groups together, most often underneath the veneer of a degree of cooperation, you will find competitive, even self-righteous egos vying for recognition, esteem and one-upmanship or egos unable to really receive the full being of the other. And this is because they do not yet know how to work on the basics—their own egos. As leaders they do not yet see their own underlying motivations. I am not saying that all group leaders are like this, but too many are!

Blue Level of Intelligence – Concepts, Ideas, Memory
Posted by Dr Sircus on February 19, 2015
http://drsircus.com/spiritual-psychology/blue-level-of-intelligence-concepts-ideas-memory#utm_source=Dr+Sircus+Newsletter&utm_campaign=dad53bfc66-Article_258&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ea98c09673-dad53bfc66-10646942&mc_cid=dad53bfc66&mc_eid=41e174c9cd

Christopher Hills taught me that the level of functioning of the fifth level is the important concept-making and idea-producing development of the brain. This is the level of consciousness that allows us to store up higher abstractions and thoughts in our memory and to process new experiences, revive old emotional scars, recall deep fears and dreams.
The blue level with all its stored concepts and memories can be very boring as when older people only talk from their memories. Most people who talk too much are trapped in their blue level, as are most religious fundamentalists who interpret the meaning of everything from ancient books. The time world of a blue level is the past, and rarely does a blue level person’s mind stop long enough to experience something in the present, God forbid imagine something new (violet intelligence) for the future.
God, to the blue level of intelligence, becomes a concept meaning the burning bush dies, God dies, and becomes encased in the past. Meaning how dare God say something new in the present. Concepts become prisons and through the ages many have suffered endlessly in hell for them.
However, the capacity to form ideas and concepts is fundamental to our awareness, and how we live our lives. They determine very much how we respond to the signals, feelings, pains, and pleasures we are experiencing in the present.
Without this conceptual machinery to process our thoughts and primitive emotions, our organism would be much like an animal, only aware of the emotional chemical hormone releasing its response to stimuli. We would know pain but not the meaning of it.
We would be able to communicate but we would not use any words or remember any thoughts and our internal life would be conditioned by the environment like Pavlov’s dogs. Idealism as we know it would be absent from life. However, idealists can be dangerous so it is vital we get a handle on this level of human life.
Blue level is idealistic, peace loving and content. They have strong feelings of devotion and commitment to people, concepts or ideals. They have a strong connection to the past, to traditions, institutions and authority.
Negative blue types tend to be judgmental, rigid, ultra-conservative and afraid of change, slow to get in touch with feelings, fearful of conflict (rocking the boat or peace at any price attitudes and blue types often feel "blue" or depressed.
Negative Personality Patterns of Blue Level of Awareness
· seeks dominion over inferiors
· surrenders to superiors
· trapped by fixed ideas
· needs peaceful situation
· clings to traditional way of doing things
· needs to support authority
· needs rules and supervision
· authority seeking
· smug and self-satisfied
· dogmatic
· resistant to change
· melancholic
· fanatic
· rigid
· authoritarian
· ultraconservative
· slow to respond
· in conflict between strong desire for contentment and tense conditions of discontent
· inability to express
Without the fifth brain we would not be able to experience devotion or higher types of love nor analyze our emotions. We would not be able to compare them with previous experiences and memories recorded in the lower brains.
The comparing mechanism of this fifth brain is exactly opposite to that of the yellow intellect. The intellect is like a person who enters a darkened room with a torch beam and lights up each object in turn, comparing it by saying, "that’s a table, that’s a chair." The conceptual faculty of the blue brain goes in and sees a whole room with each object, chair, table, window, carpet, etc., making the room come together as a whole concept, which we identify with as our "home."
Luscher Color Test
The dark blue of the test represents complete calm. This color represents the basic biological need for tranquility and contentment. Blue types seek balanced, harmonious, tension -free environments so they can feel secure. Blue is loyalty, as they like to say. Blue, as a relaxed sensitivity is a prerequisite for empathy and for esthetic experiences and for meditative awareness. (Note the blue in the Test is really indigo but does mostly represent the blue level of consciousness. This reference to meditative awareness relates more to the indigo, as does sensitivity.)
Christopher Hills Nuclear Evolution
Love on the Blue Level
Devotion that is tuned to the One in all men can minister and serve wherever devoted service is needed. As with all the levels, the inhibiting effect of fear, in this case fear of change, is overcome when we free ourselves of attachment to any particular hero or guru or master or any cherished belief or concept. Then the positive energy of devoted love radiates in all directions and fulfillment is the natural feedback of this unlimited flow of devotion to all teachers of Truth.
Blue Level Fear – Fear of Change
Of all the levels the Blue is the most difficult to get out of. Why? Because the Blue level hates change, it is abhorrent simply because it destroys the foundation of their cherished world. Religion can be the bitch that it can be exactly because of this. It cements our personalities in fixed ideas about everything and when it interferes with our sexuality it can destroy the quality of our lives.
The whole motivating power of evolution is change and growth whether it is in an individual or a business company or in a mode of government. Things have to change or eventually perish.
Concepts are not reality.
Concepts are only mental models or maps of reality. All change on the being level happens beyond the world of concepts. Most concepts are designed to prevent us from evolving. Concepts are usually obstacles to change.
The blue level always knows something through information that is stored or is forming concepts about information. Concepts are like models, they are just the most satisfying explanation we have about something real. Concepts of whatever we have stored up in our minds are actually useless for becoming enlightened.
Blue Level – Aggression.
This is the realm of the mental bully. It is the need to dominate something mentally, with thoughts. It usually functions like one-up-man-ship. The ego feels great if it can get one up on someone else and always get the last word. It is the urge to be in control of what is happening in the mind or the thoughts, not just in you but also in others. For example, you may have a mother who tries to tell you how everything you think is no good. "Why do you think that way?" she says, or "Why not think another way" or "That’s no good." Such a person wants everyone to think the same way they do. It is just another form of aggression.

Conclusion
Most of our ideas are bad ones and that includes our religious ideas and concepts. Concepts are actually dangerous because some people enjoy killing in the name of them. Real life, love, sex, listening and communication in general are not concepts but are usually controlled by them. God is not a concept and the truly holy people do not have their noses in books, they live their lives and see and hear God in everything.
Martin Armstrong writes, “Humanity will simply obey authority to the point they will torture another if so directed. This is what governments depend on to maintain order. The unruly are the fearless who refuse to conform. With time, as governments always end up abusing the ruled, the unruly rise up in an organized manner. When they become the majority, revolution is born. Today we have Stalinistic type people in the US government who are also obsessed with what the ruled think.”
The blue level person loves authority and the ultimate is to give authority to one’s own thinking and ideas. We see this especially when the ideas are not our own. We see this in evidence with people who give their cherished bible authority, over not only their own life but also the lives of people around them. We want people to think and do as we think and do. We do not like differences, so on this level we want everyone to be the same as us.
Reaching escape velocity from the gravity of the blue level is for very few spiritual seekers who understand the rainbow body and the challenge of being in control of all the levels of consciousness. Most people have their consciousness concentrated in one or two levels of intelligence and have not learned how to play on all the levels given to us by our Creator.

I need more time to read through the text, but I sure love the idea of being an undercover walking rainbow. :)

[onawah]

Ulli, I definitely had you in mind, among others, when I posted this info.
I was sure you would find it of value, with your strong interest in astrology.
There are still two more levels to go, and in Dr. Hills books, he also talked about two further levels, one characterized by the unconscious and the color black (though black is defined as not a color, but an absence of light) and white, which contains all colors, and is the gateway to cosmic consciousness.
I don't know if Dr. Sircus is going to include information about those two levels, but if not, I will see if I can fill in.
It's been a study that has shaped my understanding of myself, others and humanity in general for most of my life.
Thanks to everyone for your interest!

Indigo Intuitive Level of Intelligence
http://drsircus.com/spiritual-psychology/indigo-intuitive-level-intelligence#utm_source=Dr+Sircus+Newsletter&utm_campaign=5d76660b1e-Article_259&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ea98c09673-5d76660b1e-10646942&mc_cid=5d76660b1e&mc_eid=41e174c9cd


"I think with intuition. The basis of true thinking is intuition. Indeed, it is not intellect, but intuition, which advances humanity. Intuition tells
a man his purpose in life. One never goes wrong following his feelings.
I don’t mean emotions, I mean feelings, for feelings and intuition are one."
Albert Einstein
Clearly, concepts are not as intelligent as intuitions. Concepts are only memories of happenings on higher or more intelligent levels of consciousness like intuition and the imagination. The intellect also gets bad publicity from the elevated intelligence perspective of an Einstein.
Natural intelligence and intuition are heightened when we learn to listen more deeply to our own heart’s simple feeling messages. The more we learn how to listen to our own heart and the more we can learn to listen to other hearts the easier it becomes to listen to life. Highly intuitive people are actually listening to life. Within the framework of life is also God, or what the Native American Indians used to call the ‘Above Beings.’ Our intuition is literally our hotline to the universe but few bother to dial in. All of these kinds of things come only when we truly learn to listen to other people, not only to their thoughts but also to their feelings.
“There will come a point in everyone’s life where only intuition can
make the leap ahead, without ever knowing precisely how. One
can never know why, but one must accept intuition as a fact.”
Albert Einstein
Einstein’s definition that feelings and intuition are one give us a roadmap to connect our spiritual heart (centered on the green level of intelligence) with the indigo point that lies between our eyebrows. Obviously Einstein saw that intuitive perceptions were the most subtle and pure type of feelings. This is why intuition, the perceptual ability to know without knowing how you know,can be seen to arise through the heart.
The heart’s intuition is activated through its sense of caring and through its sensitivity and openness to feeling. The intuitions of the heart represent the purest and most subtle of feelings and are dependent on relative states of mental and emotional calmness. Closed hearted people do not feel much even on the more dense level of emotions and can hardly feel love, even when it is being heaped on them by someone who loves them. Thus, they cannot be expected to hear the subtle messages of the intuitive level of intelligence.
Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence says, “The intuitive signals that guide us in these moments come in the form of limbic-driven surges from the viscera that Damasio calls ‘somatic markers’ – literally, ‘gut feelings’. The somatic marker is a kind of automatic alarm, typically calling attention to a potential danger from a given course of action. More often than not these markers steer us away from some choice that experience warns us against, though they can also alert us to a golden opportunity.” Einstein added in this regard that “Emotional responses don’t lie; intellectual ones often do.” But he added, “But a combination of the two are like two eyes to view the clear picture.”
Intuitions are the subtlest messages moving and emanating from hearts that are open and free.
Defining intuition as a feeling is another way of saying that this is how we see with our being.
Intuition is how our being senses our surroundings. We could call this an inner vision but in essence, the being uses the intuition to combine all the senses and the mind to know the real significance of experiences.
The responses we make to life are determined by the understandings we gather from what is happening around us. The heart working through intuitive modes of feeling and perception represents a more refined kind of intelligence that we can harness to effectively steer our way more skillfully through life.
There are several kinds of intuitions but the kind everyone has is the ability to know without forming concepts. We just know in our bones that something is right or not. Intuition is very subtle, our most subtle and sensitive perceptual ability; and though we use it mostly unconsciously, it is a powerful navigator in our life. In general, this level of perception lives or dies depending on how we use it.
The intuition provides us with "cut through" consciousness, for its process is direct; it does not have to go through level five’s conceptual mode of thinking. Moreover, it does not need a college degree or a great deal of information to get an accurate "holistic" feeling/understanding about a situation. The intuition is smart. It is intelligent. In addition, it is simple.
Lower animals have this capacity to "feel" their environment but we humans can use our intuitions on higher levels and for higher purposes if we bother to train and discipline this level of perception. The real point to the intuition is that it governs the way we respond and interpret both sensory and non-sensory signals. It mixes everything up together like the heart chakra does on a feeling level. It is one of the reasons these two centers are so closely related to each other. The great difference is that the heart chakra just feels secure or insecure about itself. The intuition gives us the fantastic ability to be aware that we are aware. This level of consciousness opens the door to the knower of the knowledge.
Our intuition is our inner vision and it uses all the senses and the mind to know the real significance of events.

Nuclear Evolution
Indigo and Love
When love predominates, a person no longer doubts the prompting, for they know where these images and impressions are coming from.
Indigo – Fear of Spontaneous Response
The motivating dynamic of the Indigo level is the intuitive faculty that can be seriously inhibited by fear. We can all discover examples in our lives of times when we had a strong "flash" or "hunch" about something.
Indigo and Aggression
Here we have the knowing level without knowing how you know. A person just feels that he knows, whether it be a solution to a problem or the will of God. Thus, at its extreme, there is this feeling that you are so right in your mind that you’re prepared to even kill. In the name of God you would destroy whilst preaching love.
This is different from Blue level aggression. There we have people trying to get their ideas of how things ought to be accepted as the authority. Here we are involved with vision in the future, trying to get a vision of the un-manifested world of the future into the manifested realm. You could take the life of Mohammed for example, where he was rejected for trying to get the people to see what he was seeing. So he returned to the town that rejected him with an army and conquered them in the name of a Holy War. He killed many people. Therefore, it is not just a question of authority but of getting the vision materialized.
Most great men of vision have to have a certain amount of aggression to push them out front in order to be heard. Christ risked the wrath of the authorities of his day by preaching on the temple steps. That was an aggressive act. It was a bit like cocking one’s snoot at the authorities. His willingness to openly oppose the authorities and denounce them as phonies for the sake of his vision was an aggressive act and came back at him later.
There is yet another form of aggression on the intuitive level. Because the time world of the intuitive is in the future, there is a tendency towards impatience with the present, if not downright evasion.
Negative Personality Problems on the Indigo Level
· Fears the dark unconscious
· Fascinated with external intelligence and seeks out power for selfish ends
· Pursues idolized relationships
· Envious of others’ talents
· Impatient
· Late for appointments
· Caught in a world of superstition
· Inefficient
· Unable to live in the now
· Spaced out
· Forgetful
· Fears of the future
· Undisciplined
· Introverted
· Misguidedly futuristic
· Belittles others
· Overly sensitive to impressions of others
· Easily fascinated
· Unable to manifest
The intuition is a most useful information and guidance system. It has 360 degree vision. Through its open channel, we can connect to others on a deep level. All hearts (that are open) are networked, conspiring to message helpful truths to each other. Our intuition is the point where we tune into this fiber optic system. We can plug into a wide network of beings who are communicating with each other with the intuitive level of intelligence.

Violet Level of Intelligence – Imagination and Creativity
http://drsircus.com/spiritual-psychology/violet-level-intelligence-%E2%80%93-imagination-creativity


Through the incredible power of imagination, we create our lives. This is happening on an individual level and then there is the collective imagination, which shapes societies and our race as a whole.

Pure consciousness flows through the imagination to create images or forms. All forms are created from images. These images are in essence the super structure of life. They are like the subsoil of everything. The cosmic intelligence creates the entire physical and non-physical universe with the power of imagination. Everything has to take some kind of shape, some kind of form to come into a state of being. Imagination is the creative power. Everything in the universe somehow has an image of itself.

If we cannot imagine something we cannot see that something. Imagination is a primordial aspect of human consciousness that few understand. The violet frequency is the highest frequency in the visible spectrum and is at the deepest core of our ability to shape and perceive reality. It is at the core of everything we think, feel, and do. Our imaginations directly influence the cell life of our bodies as well as the thoughts we think, the intuitions we have and the desires that lurk deep inside the sensations we have. Even our social life is predicated by the imagination.

Whatever we put into our imaginations is going to happen sometime in the future. The imagination is that faculty of consciousness that brings order out of chaos. From nothing comes something. From the blank canvas comes a masterpiece. The imagination is the power with which we "will" events into a pattern and into existence.

The imagination is the power to be able to perceive images. Look around at your physical surroundings. What you are seeing visually is your imagination in your frontal lobes recreating physical reality inside of your head. The images are inside though you can put your hand out and touch your surrounds.



The basic capacity of sight has two components and each are aspects of the imagination. When we open our eyes and see, what do we see? Literally, we are seeing our imaginations! We are not seeing anything "out there." The image is in our own brain and it really has no size to it at all. We never "see" physical reality, we see our imagination’s representation of it.

It is the same when we watch TV or a movie. The light penetrates into the brain and triggers the imagination into form. This level of imagination has a strictly inner component. Everything in the "created" universe has an image, a shape, an astral form.

Images do have their own intelligence and are conveyers of deep and meaningful information.

It is the basic capacity to see with the eyes and to dream with our minds, which is the primary function of the imagination in human consciousness. The secrets of light and the secrets of the imagination go hand in hand. for nothing is seen without light.

The most intelligent people have the "power to see" beyond ordinary perception. Their visions are much deeper than just fanciful ideas. The greatest sages and geniuses of the ages have the ability to paint original pictures in their own imaginations and are able to communicate them to other peoples’ imaginations.

High beings use images more than concepts to communicate. The primordial imagination is not the stuff that makes unreal fantasies but the stuff that makes us know who we are.

Identification


The process of identification is the key to the mysteries of the imagination. Imagination is the creative power - and the process of identification is that which traps or forms inside of us to make them our own. Identification is the deep psychic process of becoming one with something. It is through identification that we create our identity. When we identify with a feeling or a thought. we feed those impressions, we make them more important; we own them as our own and incorporate them into our self-image. It is through the process of identification that we become one with our experiences. They become ours.

Negative Personality Patterns of the Violet Level

· Feels misunderstood through inability to have relationships at deep levels of being

· Intense erotic imaginations

· Seeks to use power to overwhelm others

· Needs sympathetic emotions

· Levels criticism at others

· Feels misunderstood

· Experiences shame, self-denial and self-abasement

· Conflict grows out of inharmonious surroundings

· Has negative self-image

· Day dreamy

· In conflict between blissful images and personal reality

· In conflict between desire for sympathy and unconscious tendency to criticize others for not understanding one's own need for tenderness

· Has blockages related to magical practices

· Needs to feel popular or indispensable

The violet type of person has a very rich imaginative life. They are relating much more to their inner imagery then the outer sensation of the red level type. However, this inner life can be filled with illusion, daydreams, and whole universes of spinning fantasies. In fact, it can be like a cyclone that never seems to touch the ground. It can just go on forever, spinning webs of dreams that are never brought into fruition. Many people’s imaginations are short-circuiting themselves into a cloud of wishes and dreams of winning lotteries.

Christopher Hill’s Nuclear Evolution

Violet Love - For great imaginers, the love of the divine order that so often seems inaccessible in earthly life, is realized and fearlessly accepted when the understanding dawns that man's apparent chaos is part of a greater cosmic plan. We can look at any of the works of genius in painting or music or poetry and discover there this paradoxical truth that pain and pleasure, sorrow and joy, chaos and order are ultimately the essential ingredients of any great artistic creation.

Violet Fear - Fear of Chaos

If your drive is to charm the universe and to use the "shaping spirit of the imagination" to create a new heaven and a new earth, then all that disrupts and obstructs this deep urge will be feared. It seems that those who live on this level of consciousness and, through music, painting, poetry and other creative arts, strive to present images that express their vision of Cosmic Reality, unconsciously repeat the original dilemma of the creation. Man, having been created in God's image, with a direct line of communication with the Source, became aware that he had another self, a doubter, and the creative artist suffers agonies of doubt and fear that the final expression of their vision will not match the glory of the original inspiration. Therefore, in a fit of despair he may smash the marble, slash the canvas, or tear up the manuscript.

Violet Aggression

The negative expression of aggression here is the calculated use of the imagination to enslave men. Psychological warfare is an example, but beyond that, it is the armed use of the imagination by men who know that what people think about themselves is what they become. Thus, there can be no greater aggression than to consciously manipulate and promote unsuspecting men and women into seeing themselves as something they are not, in order that they may be exploited.

The Luscher Color Test

Violet is a mixture of red and blue and, though a separate and distinct color, it manages to retain something of the properties of both as a red/blue amalgamation, despite losing the clarity of purpose of the two colors. Violet attempts to unify the impulsive conquest of red and the gentle surrender of blue, through "identification." This identification is a sort of mystical union, a high degree of sensitivity leading to complete fusion between subject and object.

The Violet personality wants to achieve magical relationships. They not only want to be glamoured themselves, but at the same time, they want to charm and delight others, to exert a degree of fascination over them because, although this is a magical identification, the distinction between subject and object still exists.

Violet can mean identification as an intimate, erotic blending, or it can lead to an intuitive and sensitive understanding. However, it is somewhat unreal and the wish fulfillment quality can also mean identification as an inability to differentiate or as an irresolute wavering, either of which may result in irresponsibility.

The young tend to prefer violet which highlights the fact that to them the world is still a magical place in which they have only to rub Aladdin's lamp for its slave to bring them what they want - an attitude which certainly has its points, but which is probably inadvisable to carry into adult life.

Black and White Levels of Consciousness
http://drsircus.com/spiritual-psychology/black-and-white-consciousness#utm_source=Dr+Sircus+Newsletter&utm_campaign=22b7b43710-Article_263&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ea98c09673-22b7b43710-10646942&mc_cid=22b7b43710&mc_eid=41e174c9cd

Black and White Consciousness
Black and white are mirrors of each other. The word “black” will elicit the response “white” almost instantaneously in most people. The association between black and white is obviously very strong. Everything we know about black is only a reverse phase of white.

It is either the absence of color or full shining radiation of all the colors; black and white indicate a place that is beyond color. There is a place inside of everyone that cannot be touched (Red), cannot be explored socially (Orange), cannot be separated, changed or judged (Yellow), cannot be possessed (Green), cannot be conceptualized or bound in time (Blue), cannot be known through psychic faculties (Indigo), and cannot be patterned, imagined, ordered or magically conjured (Violet).

What is it that is beyond all our levels of perception? What is it that we can know only in a pure sense through direct experience? When we are still we can know what most people miss and that is the level of pure being with its will or lack of it.

When we communicate and relate to others there is something beyond their mind, emotions and body that we can touch or completely ignore. We listen to words, argue with words without paying much attention to the being behind the words. When we listen to another there are three levels. The first is the word level, second is the essence level and the third is the level of being. Normally we do not pay attention to how people actually feel beyond their emotions, this is the basic cause of most of the miscommunications, misunderstandings and conflicts people normally experience.

Perhaps the easiest way to understand the profound space of black and its relationship to white, is to look up at the darkness of space. When one looks in-between the stars in the heavens what do we see? We see the blackness of space; but with our minds, we can understand that it is only black because it is so full of white light that we would go blind if we could see all of the light that is traveling between the stars. In every pinpoint of space is all the light from all the stars in the universe. Each point is an absolute space of cosmic light.

The colors and levels of intelligence all come from the cosmic light, which is broken down into the spectrum colors inside of us. However, our beings are tuned to the full spectrum that is not broken down by us or anyone else.

The color black throughout the world and in all cultures is associated with evil, annihilation and negation. Nevertheless, there can be no evil in a pure sense, just a lack of understanding of what is true. From the point of view of our egos (separate selves) there is nothing more terrifying then negating ourselves. Self-denial is not something we usually seek, but there is this place of selflessness that entails an annihilation of oneself as a separate ego. This space is for saints and other great people who have mastered their egos, meaning they have identified with other selves as their own self. This is possible on a pure heart level when the separating, calculating mind is left behind in utter stillness.

Consciousness is the manifestation of Pure Being and has everything to do with light. Consciousness creates the world in which we live and have our being. Just like a mirror, Consciousness reflects things on its own surface. Consciousness is the basic substance of the universe and everything we experience in our minds, emotions and bodies is a disturbance in consciousness. Pure being and pure consciousness are the same thing as pure awareness, which is a knowing space that we can only usually experience when we still our minds so no thoughts are present.

One can get a handle on the mystery of consciousness and that state of pure being when we understand that pure consciousness is the Creator of Creation and that without consciousness nothing can exist. Everything that happens—happens in consciousness. When we realize that everything we see depends on consciousness, the pure impersonal level of consciousness that permeates everyone and everything, we take a big step in understanding the true nature of our beings and our existence in life in a body.

When we meditate, after years of practice, most damaging thoughts are filtered. The mind becomes clear without the intrusion of worries, uncertainties, and fears. It is a place of stillness, clarity and illumination thanks to the elimination of these detrimental thoughts. When we meditate we challenge our minds to progress beyond its usual state of constant busyness to stillness so we can experience something else that is beyond mental awareness. Allowing ourselves to achieve this mental freedom is the only way to experience the state of clarity that comes from experiencing our pure consciousness. It is bliss that anyone is capable of achieving when we can bathe ourselves in our pure selves.

The whole spectrum of complexity of life is really the infinite gradations of this capacity for consciousness or awareness. This type of awareness or consciousness exists beyond all dualities so it is not easy to understand and/or express.

Jeff Foster writes, “The world created by thought, the world of words, language, and concepts, is the world of opposites. ‘Up and down’, ‘this or that’, ‘inside and outside’, ‘right and wrong’, ‘black and white’, ‘true and false’, ‘positive and negative’, ‘me and you’ and so on. The world of words, language, thoughts, concepts, is a dualistic world of apparent opposites. But, in reality, do opposites exist? What we are really pointing to when we use the word ‘non-duality’ is something that goes beyond all of these mind-made opposites. But how can we talk about something that goes beyond opposites, when even our attempt to talk about non-duality is dualistic?”

Foster says, “We are like waves on the ocean, looking for the ocean, longing to be part of it. You are like a wave in the ocean experiencing itself as separate from the ocean. The wave asks, ‘When and where will I find the ocean? Who can give the ocean to me?’ But the wave was always the ocean, from the very beginning, even in its seeking! It’s the ocean looking for itself. Even within the ocean’s failure to find itself it is still the ocean; every wave is one hundred per cent water. As all the authentic spiritual teachers have been telling us for hundreds and thousands of years, you are what you seek.”

Self-awareness has been called "arguably the most fundamental issue in psychology, from both a developmental and an evolutionary perspective. Awareness of the stream of pure consciousness within us is perhaps the highest state of self-awareness. Normally becoming conscious of one's own body and mental state of mind including thoughts, actions, ideas, feelings and interactions with others is what most people strive for. Sitting still like a mountain in meditation is not for everyone, so few realize the heights of being that come with awareness of consciousness itself.

The following is from Dr. Hills book, Nuclear Evolution. It briefly describes the human drives associated with each of the chakras. He maintained that if people better understood this,conflict resolution and peace would be much easier to achieve in human relations, both individually, in groups and among nations. Each individual manifests all of these drives, some fluctuate more than others, and in some, one or more will be noticeably predominant.


“A thumbnail sketch of Personality in Nuclear Evolution
Kinds of love (or self-regarding sentiments) described according to corresponding drive, primary color (which correspond to chakras).
There is an elaborate balance between all the primal drives whose functions overlap. Each personality is a time-space bubble inhabiting several worlds of time.

Drive 1. RED (SENSATION) : Oriented to transient external stimuli, the impulsive manipulation of objects affecting touch and experience in the immediate now, without much awareness of past or future events. His concrete reality is not related to flow of time which is always now. Relates all sensations to self pleasure or self pain and is unaware of the inner worlds of others unless they are useful for purposes of self-esteem. The color red brings on reactiveness and physical excitement related to anger, pugnacity, aggressiveness, sensation, intensity; physical bully.
Positive: Wants to experience intense mental and physical excitement. Highly reactive to stimulation. Expresses energy through sex. Emphasis on the mating instincts and the biochemical experience of Love. Responds quickly to approval. Direct action preferred.
Negative: His attitudes bring conflict between the desire to conquer society or the opposite sex and the need to be left alone to experience alone. This produces ignorance of environment, feelings of flight and home to mother attitudes. Cannot take disapproval. Expects action from others on demand.

Drive 2. ORANGE (OPTIMISTIC) A sensation type who is oriented to the future and contact with the community. Hopeful and optimistic at finding his real place in society, living intensely and meaningfully in the concrete world. Expansive and always seeking wider fields of experience. Experiences time as sensation in the present but applies it to the future instead of the immediate now. Relates well to herd instinct, ambition, agitation, restlessness, explorations and busyness. Movement of sexual energies towards thinking processes causes interest in politics and price.
Positive: Seeks energetic social contact and acceptance. Ambitious for community, nation, or business. Likes big projects of world-wide scope and would love to expand. Quietly proud of his own dynamism but is introspective and aware of hisown compulsions. Desires hope, social work and do-gooding.
Negative: Selfishly proud and ambitious for growth of business, political reputation or his social climbing. Drive to belong gives him conflict with the desire to elbow his way around the community more effectively, using gifts of education etc. for his purpose. Harbors foreign feeling and mistrust of others.


Drive 3. YELLOW (INTELLECTUAL) This type analyses everything and must know what and where. Uses intellect to cut up events into true or false, past or future and remains detached from the immediate now. Must know logical framework before capable of understanding anything, yet seeks originality and change. Accepts conclusions based on theoretical content and temporary proofs in order to justify putting “content” into an ideal or hypothetical form. Often feels emptiness and coldness in relationships and develops zealousness to compensate. Experiences time as continuous flow of process. Insists on details and logical supremacy in all matters, is self-assertive and relates to intellectual thinking, drive towards change. Love of novelty and mental excitement.

Positive: Seeks a liberating key through and is constantly searching for new ideals, novel solutions, etc. in hope that his many expectations will be fulfilled. Needs sympathy and warm responses from others and self-expression of his Ego. Has creative expression in art, literature, music etc. Heightened sense of individuality causes separation from community.
Negative: Feels deprived of recognition. Conflict is generated within by the drive for fulfillment through constant change, and a vague feeling of emptiness. Aloof and expecting critical rejection. Worries over insecure thinking, fear, and becomes mental bully. Dogmatic. Isolates self from activities of others and fears group power.

Drive 4. GREEN (SELF ASSERTIVE) The desire for power to survive and store up energy and “vital force” causes individuals to expend energies to get them. The need for emotional and spiritual security leads to feelings of lack. Such individuals seek the effectiveness and power to assert themselves in the community. Jealousy from loss of control over the love object arising from the possessive instincts needs to be dealt with. This type relates to self-centered love fixations, love/hate emotions, power and feelings of absorption and retention. Self assurance and confidence may camouflage unacknowledged self doubts. Experiences time as past, present or future depending on each situation and its threat to security.
Positive: Strives to assert himself to obtain vital force, money, love, and to have his own ideas confirmed by others in order to establish inner security. Drive for vitality, stamina, wealth and security causes constructive effort to be made to solve problems. Adopts independent attitude and wants to overcome obstacles and assert himself on his own.
Negative: Expects confirmation to come from others but is unable to enforce his will and therefore puts blame for his failure on others. Conflict comes from the determination to assert his own ideas and a need to free himself from self-restraint and the restraints of society. Needs to free himself from limitations generally. Suffers from jealousy, hatred and selfishness.

Drive 5. BLUE (FEELING SATISFACTION) This type lives in a mental world of his own commitment to idealistic feelings. He is hindsighted and historical, living in a present composed of memories of the past. Existing concepts, family values, recognized authorities and situations are all bound into his ideals and accepted as images of reality. His feelings for family and community traditions and fixed sense experiences are imprisoned in an objective time so as to relax and feel satisfaction. He experiences time as binding all events into memories of emotional and mental concepts. Loves established ways, principles, ethics, morality.
Positive: Has a deep longing for fulfillment of his clearly worked out ideals and defined thoughts so as to find contentment and peace of mind, is satisfied when conditions settle, loves small children, judgement, love of commitment, reverence, devotion, fixed groups, idealism, etc. Reacts strongly to disturbers of the peace.
Negative: Conflict develops between the strong desire for contentment and the tense condition of discontent caused by dissatisfaction with stagnating smugness of accepted authority of the status quo. Seeks dominion over inferiors and surrenders to superiors and suffers from his inability to be free of fixed ideas.

Drive 6. INDIGO (INTUITION) Discontinuity with the past and present gives this type a personality which is always living in the future. He appears to be impractical and divorced from concreteness because he does not identify reality with the senses. Is continually impatient for the present to catch up with the future already perceived. Not punctual and difficult to tie down to details, fixed concepts, ideas or plans. Instinctive need for communication, sensitivity, telepathy, intuition, integration, etc. Places his faith in the future, in the not-yet-manifested and experiences time as a telescoping of the future into the present, and the past as a dim mist.
Positive: Needs a conflict-free relationship. Seeks a sensitivity to the internal conditions of others which brings out the faculty we know as taste. The great task is the discrimination between human intelligence and that which is extra-cerebral/supramental. Given to admiration, high inspiration, passiveness, and is quietist, visionary and anticipatory.
Negative: Conflict within is triggered by an inborn sensitivity to the impression of others. This person fears the dark unconscious on the one hand and has a fascination with external intelligences and power for selfish ends on the other. Idol relationships are common, there may be envy of others talents, belittling others, and a tendency to be easily fascinated.

Drive 7. VIOLET (IMAGINATION) This type seeks for an ideal state of harmony and enchantment as seen in the drama or the stage and is therefore out to make a good impression and becomes popular as result of his charm. Tenderness and consideration of others and himself are marked traits by which he skillfully makes himself indispensable in situations. Is basically concerned with time and its annihilation orientated to the healing power of poetry and literature and its transforming effects through highly original metaphors. Needs an archetypal image of the Cosmic Intelligence otherwise conflict between “will” and the “imagination” develops. Tries to create a pattern of life and sets out an example of goodness. Experiences time in his imagination and is able to distort it in drama, art forms, poetry and imagery.
Positive: Has a deep sense of wonder, ecstasy, bliss and self-surrender. Has a deep desire to integrate through charm and to be charmed by tenderness and the sympathetic emotions. Has a desire for magical transformation of chaos into bliss. Strives to make a good impression and influences others with the power of spiritual and magical images. Love of withdrawal, self humiliation, absolutism and has an instinct for divine order and enduring patterns.
Negative: Conflict between the desire for tender charm or sympathy on the one hand and an unconsciousness on the other of a tendency to criticize others for not understanding his own need for tenderness. The drive to imagine a heavenly state of bliss conflicts with the personal reality. Feels misunderstood through his inability to have enduring relationships at deep levels of being. Experiences shame, intense erotic imaginations, magical practices, self-denial and self-abasement.

BLACK (Nuclear center of being) ABSOLUTE Cannot compromise with uncertainty and hazard in the universe without self-surrender to Cosmic Intelligence and entering an immortal state of being. The annihilation of the “real external world” occurs when the individual ego unites with the self-consciousness behind all of the manifested creation and notions of bodily objects. This type has a desire to bring order out of chaos by the “willing” of external events in time—the function of power. The drive of self-annihilation creates a stubbornness and desire for absolute freedom to be a law unto oneself. Self mastery involves coping with this secret desire to play God at the heart of all being. Unyielding, certain, over-confident, hard of heart, spiritually ruthless, self-defeating and on rare occasions completely broken in “will” and lost in the dark night of the soul. Must surrender to ultimate self or becomes destructive instead of creative. Is often grateful for small recognitions and does not expect rewards. Will serve only what he feels is a universal or cosmic will. Messianic pretensions must be coped with for psychic health as they are driving forces in the secret desires of many more men that is believed.
Positive: Seeks to become Godlike and will obstinately resist currently accepted ideas like a John the Baptist and rejects any encroachments which may impede his own actions. Becomes his own authority and tries to master his dark unconscious in order to achieve a certainty and lasting order. Is defiant of temporal authority and feels often to be terribly alone. Is in love with Love itself, May be in contact with the supramental Self but cannot easily surrender to it without passing through the divine madness unscathed. Can love without demanding love in return. Once liberation from Self is achieved, enlightenment follows the struggle.
Negative: Conflict arises in facing the much needed self-annihilation of Ego which is his unfulfilled desire. This desire stimulates attitudes of obstinate and defiant absolutism. A stubbornness which will conflict often with the desire for absolute freedom to fulfill his own will at any cost to himself or to others, may result in anarchy and chaos. Many adolescent students pass through this phase briefly as they compromise with worldliness. Divided against self, they can become suicidal, self-destructive, paranoid and sometimes an Ego-maniac who tries to conquer the world instead of himself. In extreme cases mental health breaks down into psychoses.
Note: The human fear of “Voidness” (empty space, God, etc.) is in depth the fear of absolute and total dominion which life has given over ourselves so that we may experience God Consciousness (I AM ness). Such pure selfless awareness, which has to live with itself by seeing itself in all things, removes the duality of subjective and objective, good and evil, self and not-self, and penetrates beneath the separative and different styles in which Truth appears to dress itself. In fact Truth has no style, may appear overly simple and naive or extremely complex. It is the SELF that clothes it in different styles. Ultimately we reject God (total I AM ness) when we reject our awareness of that which is unaware in us. When we suffer we become aware, when we meet another self who is more aware, we increase our awareness. There is no other way. Meditation alone cannot give awareness of THAT which lives only for others and loves all things great and small as itself. Hence man incarnates in the flesh for the purpose of soul-making.

There is an elaborate balance between all the above primal drives whose functions overlap. Each personality is a time-space bubble inhabiting several worlds of time. “


Regarding the seventh, eighth and ninth levels (from page 88 of the original Nuclear Evolution publication by Dr. Hills from 1968):
“When all gaps in the individual consciousness are completed and all spheres of consciousness are fully evolved and integrated into the unity of LIFE, a state of Planetary consciousness is achieved. It then becomes apparent that there are intelligences beyond man for which there is no finite proof. The proof of consciousness is LIFE and its results in a body. When LIFE is extracted from the body, the human awareness sees clearly that consciousness disappears. At this 7th sphere the seer within recognises that the spiral of energy transformations is a reality only at certain levels of awareness. The life of each individual entity is realised as the Imaged CREATIVE POWER flows through and expresses itself by interfering with the spiral of random psychic and “non-willed” physical events in a thought-wave universe. The notion is cherished at this level that the plan is not pre-ordained or fixed in time but free to inter-change (but not change) in an absolute domain of intelligently “willed” events in a divine pattern.
Full Cosmic consciousness is obtained in a zero-self domain, where the Ego died through self-annihilation, and the personality is concsious of its own Ego-consciousness in all living things as a mirror reflection in consciousness of our own Being. This Cosmic state must be rejected by the finite mind and intellect simply because their very function as the analyser, divider and separator of reality cannot ever resolve these paradoxes. The zero-self at the CENTRE is an orb of no-thing.
In the centre is the orb of endless sight, an inward personal sphere of light which radiates outwards into an impersonal creative Void, the absence of all Self-consciousness known in the east as Nirvana or Samadhi. In the creative Void the seer does not see anything as being separate from himself, and therefore has no self-consciousness or separated Self. This positive self-annihilation from the centre within becomes not self-negation, but self-fulfillment.”

Any attempts to form a NWO are never going to meet with the people's trust, and that is why attempts are being made to do it secretively.
If there is going to be actual reform, I think it is going to have to come from within each nation's government, and if they manage to do that, then there might be actual opportunities for coalitions of governments that could effectively work together to create positive planetary change.
Otherwise, the corruption already existing at the local levels will simply be re-created on a planetary level, and probably morph into something even worse.
Hand in hand with local reform of governments will have to come personal, individual reform, encouraged and supported by groups of individuals acting together as units.
In such groups, there will always be leaders and role models who will inspire others to progress, until each member of the group is affected and everyone's evolution jumps up to the next higher level.
Dr. Christopher Hills described how this works in human groups in his book, Nuclear Evolution.
Change and reform cannot be imposed from above, but must be birthed from within the nucleus of each individual, though it is through the interaction with a group of peers that each individual is supported and nurtured into growth.
But the Cosmos itself also takes a hand in evolution, and there are certainly many indications that the time for that is at hand.

I've asked Dr. Sircus if he would write an overview of Dr. Hills theories about individual and group evolution, which I think would make a perfect addendum to the Seven Levels of Intelligence information.

The world of color psychology will take you on an inspirational journey of self-discovery through an understanding ofthe meaning and the intelligence that comes with each of the basic colors (ROYGBIV). Knowledge of how color affects your conscious and unconscious mind will change your life and inspire you to discover more about yourself. It will lead not only to heightened self-understanding but to deeper understanding of other peoples’ inner world of experience, which might be different from your own.
Color psychology transcends other psychologies because color is basic in shaping who and what we are. We are our favorite color as well as our secondary choice and beyond we still exist on the full spectrum of perception. In my essay, You Are a Rainbow – Seven Levels of Intelligence, I introduce the seven levels of perception, which highlights the different types of intelligence we can employ in life and work.

COLOR PSYCHOLOGY
If you want to look instantly look in the color mirror take the instant online color test. Color psychology is the study of color as a determinant of human behavior. Color influences perceptions because each color creates a specific type of perceptual capacity or level of intelligence. Perception is the organization, identification, and interpretation of sensory information in order to represent and understand the environment. All perception involves our rainbow body, which colors signals in our nervous system.
Though some might think that colors often have different meanings in various cultures, the truth is universal. "Color is a universal, nonverbal language, and we all intuitively know how to speak it," says Leslie Harrington, a color consultant in Old Greenwich, Conn. and a noted expert on the use of color in residential and industrial decor. "What color you paint your walls isn’t just a matter of aesthetics. It’s a tool that can be leveraged to affect emotions and behavior."
Color greatly influences human emotion and behavior. Artists and interior designers have long understood how color can dramatically affect moods, feelings, and emotions. It is a powerful communication tool and can be used to signal action, influence mood, and cause physiological reactions. Certain colors have been associated with increased blood pressure, increased metabolism, and eyestrain.
Color can be used in medicine as a medicine. Several ancient cultures, including the Egyptians and Chinese, practiced chromo therapy, or the use of colors to heal. Chromo therapy is sometimes referred to as light therapy and is used today as an alternative treatment.
This page provides only an introduction to color psychology. Follow the links in the above navigation table to dive into the detail and richness of color psychology.
A review of the three primary colors:
Red is used to stimulate the body and mind and to increase circulation. Being the longest wavelength, red is a powerful color. Although not technically the most visible, it has the property of appearing to be nearer than it is and therefore it grabs our attention first. Hence its effectiveness in traffic lights the world over. Its effect is physical; it stimulates us and raises the pulse rate, giving the impression that time is passing faster than it is. It relates to the masculine principle and can activate the "fight or flight" instinct. Red is strong, and very basic. Pure red is the simplest color, with no subtlety. It is stimulating and lively, very friendly. At the same time, it can be perceived as demanding and aggressive and sexually very needy.
In particular the color red has been found to influence sports performance. During the 2004 Summer Olympics the competitors in boxing, Taekwondo, freestyle wrestling, and Greco-Roman wrestling were randomly given blue or red uniforms. A later study found that those wearing red won 55% of all the bouts which was a statistically significant increase over the expected 50%
Green: This is the color of balance and harmony. From a color psychology perspective, it is the great balancer of the heart and the emotions, creating equilibrium between the head and the heart. Green has a strong sense of right or wrong, inviting good judgment. It sees both sides of the equation, weighs them up, and then usually takes the moral stand in making appropriate decisions. Because the green emotional energy center is the doorway to the heart that place of pure feelings (not emotions) it is the color of truth because the heart can only stand to be open in the face of truth. When we are not with truth, like in infidelities, the heart closes. From a meaning of colors perspective, green is also the color of growth, the color of spring, of renewal and rebirth. It renews and restores depleted energy.
Blue is soothing and treats pain. Blue is the color of the mind and is essentially soothing; it affects us mentally, rather than the physical reaction we have to red. Strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter, soft blues will calm the mind and aid concentration. Consequently, it is serene and mentally calming. It is the color of clear communication. Blue objects do not appear to be as close to us as red ones. Blue and red are the world’s favorite color. However blue can be perceived as cold, unemotional and unfriendly because blue level people get trapped in their fixed ideas and mistake ideas for reality. Reality is not an idea or concept. Reality exists beyond our mental frameworks but you cannot get a religious person to see that.In 1666, English scientist Sir Isaac Newton discovered that when pure white light passes through a prism, it separates into all of the visible colors. We ourselves are prisms for the cosmic light that passes through each of us. The problem or issue of differences between one person and another are the almost infinite variations in absorbing ability and unconscious choice. Some absorb intense amounts of violet and are great imaginers but most people are red absorbers and this shapes their personalities into the physical level of consciousness.

Bottom line, one cannot think a thought without light nor feel anything or see anything.
