Colorstology.com

As is our custom here at DailyCandy, the week between Christmas and New Year’s will be dedicated to the greatest hits of 2004. Hey, don’t even think about calling us slackers. We’re wooooorking here.

Have a great holiday, and thank you for being such smart, opinionated, and excellent readers.

How are you feeling right now? Green with envy? Blushing with joy?

If you were born today, your mood might be described as Purple Heather, the color that blends your strength of purpose and independence. October, in general, is a very cerulean month.

And you thought Libras were just indecisive.

Get ready to learn more about those endlessly fascinating people, you and yours. Pantone, the world’s leading color authority, has teamed up with astrologer Michele Bernhardt to develop Colorstrology, a goofy but addictive new system that combines numerology and astrology with color theory. Here’s the idea: Every birthday “carries a numerological vibration that corresponds to a particular color.” Each month has a color: January is caramel (practical, determined). August is sun orange (regal, inspiring). November is claret red (passionate, transforming). Every day gets more specific.

It’s just plain fun looking yourself up. And the results are shockingly spot on. These aren’t supposed to be your favorite colors, by the way, just shades that you’d do well to incorporate into your life. (Paint a wall, buy a sweater, change your lipstick.)

Looks like horoscopes may develop a serious case of the blues.
