Orange Color Emotional/Mental State

The Orange Aura Color Personality (Strengths)
Oranges love to communicate, especially about the bizarre and unusual. Their core motive is independence. They excel in anything they put their minds and hearts to. However, that does not mean that they do not need a connection to others. They love and need it, but prefer to chart their paths in life. Above all, they avoid being controlled by anyone or anything. Many people think they have won an issue with an Orange just because the Orange became quiet. They take it for weakness when it's really passive resistance.
Oranges recoil from hostility and cruel words and will only explode when they can't take it anymore. When Orange begins to feel stuck, Orange moves on. Running away is often the only option for Orange. Oranges are good listeners and are guided primarily by their feelings and keen intuition. They are excellent hosts and hostesses, surrounding themselves with a tidy environment, high-quality food, art, and music. In their relationships, Oranges need to express themselves in physically tangible ways, through gifts or sexually, rather than words, because words can hurt the Orange deeply.
Heaven help the person who makes the Orange feel unappreciated or as though they are stagnating! If scolded or criticized too often, the Orange will find more positive stimulation elsewhere. Following their passions is synonymous with freedom.

Challenges for Oranges (Weaknesses)
Orange disdains taking orders from anyone. Orange takes it as an insult to their intelligence. Ideas and suggestions are fine, but demands and ultimatums are not acceptable! It may suit Orange to be self-employed. Self-esteem is tied directly to Orange's relationships. Orange doesn't like conflict, even though it can spar with the best of them. However, Orange tends to commit to the wrong people, often leading to self-doubt, escapism, and staying in destructive relationships for far too long.
Possible Health Issues for Oranges
Physical health issues might include problems with ovaries, and testicles, impotence, urinary problems, (irritable bladder, incontinence, Interstial Cystitis, UTIs), lower back or chronic back pain, pelvic or vaginal pain, PMS, lymph gland problems, bone problems (especially in legs, ankles, and feet), STDs, gas and bloating, frigidity, impotence, fertility or pregnancy issues, food sensitivity, and allergies (including Histamine Intolerance).
Emotional health issues might involve eating disorders, issues surrounding personal power, chronic guilt, a "cold shoulder" attitude, sexuality issues (sexual resistance or repression, frigidity, nymphomania, fetishism, promiscuity, sex without love), all manner of addictions, creative blocks, and being a compulsive pleasure seeker (or to the other extreme, the denial of pleasure).

Raising Sacral, Orange & Sanguine Temperament Energy Levels
A low Aura Energy Self-Test score in Orange often means problems concerning sex or intimacy. Negative or sexual experiences (sex without love, rape, sexual abuse) also apply to abused males. These memories need to be released. If you're an Orange personality, it may help to write letters voicing your feelings to those who have hurt you or someone you've lost trust in, even if you have no intention of sending them. Try being more open and affectionate with those you do trust. Perhaps a passionate evening with your significant other may be just what you need.
Any trauma (surgery, miscarriage, abortion, menopause, injuries, sexual abuse) also sets up housekeeping in this chakra. A trip to the doctor for a physical may be in store.
It may be an excellent time to organize, plan, and wrap up loose ends. Are you isolating? When was the last time you got together with a friend to enjoy a friendly conversation? Accept the hugs and love that others offer. Don't feel like talking? Do something that gives you great pleasure or happiness.
Organize a sacred space, just for you, within your home. Get back to self-expression through creativity.

Massaging the lower abdomen, womb, and spleen areas can help alleviate various conditions, including female and male reproductive disorders, kidney and bladder infections, urinary tract infections, arthritis, womb and lower back problems, painful menstruation, and sexual issues. The sacral chakra is located in the area of the waistline, overlapping with the solar plexus chakra.

Choosing Food & Herbal Remedies Based on the Sanguine Temperament
Sanguines do well on a very light vegetarian diet (meaning some meats, eggs, and fish). Not eating enough vegetables and fruits, and overeating meat, can bother the Sanguine temperament.
To correct humor imbalances, the idea is to provide your body with the nutrients opposite your dominant humors. Sanguines have a primarily HOT/WET constitution. You would choose COLD and DRY nutrients to create balance and restore health and wellness.
COLD Choices: Cold foods are also considered "Cooling". Choose from mint, banana, most tropical fruits, milk and dairy, fresh cheeses, lettuce, melons, cucumber, watermelon, fish, dandelion leaves and root, bee pollen, alfalfa, plantain, beets, wild lettuce, most bitters, and any foods or nutrients that sedate the metabolism and relieve excess heat.
DRY Choices: Grains, bread, cereals, crackers (foods that are dry in the mouth), lentils, barley, and coffee.
COLD or DRY Herb Choices: red raspberry (COLD), Chinese rhubarb (COLD), lemon peel (COLD), Oregon grape root (COLD), vervain (COLD), self heal (COLD), uva ursi (COLD), aloe vera (COLD), white willow (COLD), milk thistle (COLD), passionflower (COOL), bladderwrack, kelp, Irish moss (COOL), black cohosh (Cool), peppermint (COOL), elderflowers (COOL), feverfew (COOL), Saint John's Wort (COOL/DRY), white Sage (COOL/DRY), skullcap (COOL/DRY), horehound (COOL/DRY), raspberry (COOL/DRY)
Neutral food and herb choices include raspberries, elderberries, calendula flowers, flaxseed, chaste berry, carrots, parsley, oat straw, psyllium, motherwort, blackberries, and lemon balm.
