The rich colour of burgundy consists of a blend of two colours; red, which is
associated to the Root Chakra or physical reality, and purple, which is
connected to the Crown Chakra and the higher knowing of "self".
Metaphorically, two realities blend into one glorious manifestation of colour.
the colour burgundy's intensity captures the eye of the creative warrior.
Burgundy is the colour of the "actively faithful", the "positive doer" and the
"spiritually practical" person. This colour reminds us to remain grounded
when in spiritual pursuits such as awakening intuition, meditation or developing
intuitive ability. Although this colour is reflective of more a mundane
reality, it is frequently used as a reminder when in spiritual practice.
Burgundy is a reminder that in this life, we are real and it is our
responsibility to focus on survival and to tap into the richness of our lives.

humanity. in order to fully understand the colour burgundy, we must tap
into it's vibration on the physical and spiritual levels as well as an Open
