You can associate a colour with a sound, a shape, a taste or a smell. If you see colours you are surrounded of sensations. I chose yellow, violet, viva magenta, red and purple because these colours inspire the Iris flower. Is one of the messengers of spring. It is the symbol of the freedom of light. In ancient Egypt it was the symbol of strength and eloquence, and in Greek mythology IRIS is the messenger of the gods, it is the rainbow, the link between Earth and Heaven, between gods and people. This is the synesthetic power of colours, blending our human senses to describe emotions, sounds, fillings or sensations. Colours are the simplest tools we have at our disposal to enhance our positive emotions and nurture our well-being, and their effects can manifest instantly.
