Yellow Color Emotional/Mental State

The Yellow Aura Color Personality (Strengths)
No one understands the importance of expressing philosophical ideas more than Yellow. Yellow thrives on what they can learn and loves finding solutions to old problems. They are quick and make fair, well-informed decisions. They take pride in their intellect and expertise, often preoccupied with thoughts about the future. Turning ideas into reality is what Yellow is good at. Yellow uses mentality and willpower to accomplish tasks.
Yellows are often the brightest leaders in their fields. Sometimes, Yellow may seem naive to others who do not share their endless curiosity, drive for learning, or belief that all people are inherently good.
All yellows are social butterflies that must interact with others often. Always alert, energetic, and free-spirited, Yellows tend to be enthusiastic, playful, and enjoy having fun. You will usually find Yellow outdoors in the sun.
If Yellow is not allowed to do what they love most or is isolated, they will feel deprived and turn their negative feelings inward. Like Reds, they are quickly bored and only want to sit still for a short time unless their minds are positively engaged. To be valued and praised is a boon to Yellow. Being around fun and affectionate people who will allow them their "willfulness" ranks high on their priorities, as it should.

It would help Yellow realize that not everyone possesses the same playfulness and curiosity that they do. Sometimes, Yellow can wear out those around them.

Yellow needs to ask what is being thought and felt. Yellow's personality may become fragmented, a symptom of the heart and mind not being in alignment.
