MIND/BODY
Greens are harmonious, and peaceful personalities. They desire their life to flow and prefer to live in a natural environment. They are the most balanced people in the color spectrum. They also have a powerful connection with nature. Living in the country next to a forest or close to a lake or ocean is important for these heartfelt personalities. Greens are open, expressive, friendly and communicative. They strive to balance body, mind and spirit and are often in this state of personal evolvement.
Greens perceive life through their heart. Their primary motivations are contentment and harmony. They judge their happiness by how close they are to their friends or nature. Greens are basically content. If they are in power they may need very little materially to be really happy. Their inner happiness is most important to them and is fulfilled without much expectation. Some Greens may not need to be first in competitions, wear the most expensive or beautiful clothing or have ambitious careers, while others love the pleasures and advantages of luxury, which comes as a direct result of success.
Greens crave happiness and contentment in their lives. They understand clearly that the higher they set their goals the more challenging it will be to achieve them. They have an inner understanding of the natural cycles and laws of life. They believe that to live as a human being is life's most wonderful gift.
Green personalities are very talkative and communicative. They usually say exactly, what they think or feel. They can talk for hours about almost any subject, often without saying very much. A good "chat" is therapeutic and allows them to release and express their deep feelings and concerns.
Greens have a need to talk about themselves and their challenges so they can understand them more clearly and hence, feel better. If they are unhappy or frustrated they will discharge their anxiety verbally. It is difficult for Greens to hold back or contain their thoughts and feelings, which just seem to come out naturally. Others might be offended or surprised at how direct and straightforward Greens are, or they may wonder sometimes if a Green will ever stop talking.
Greens are kinesthetic and have a strong connection with their physical bodies. For them, mind and body are really one unit. Therefore thoughts and emotions may be expressed physically. Expression is key for them. If they do not freely express their emotions they will feel uneasy, uncomfortable and in some cases become sick.
They have natural ways of expressing their emotions and feelings. Like animals, they are in contact with nature, all emotional energies are expressed without reservation or holding back. If Greens are angry they proclaim it. If they are sad, tears may come. If they are jealous, you will see the reaction immediately. Most Greens don't think about their feelings, they just live them.
Greens teach us that if we express our feelings and emotions naturally, we will create harmony and balance. If we hold back a feeling, it becomes unexpressed emotional energy staying in our bodies and lowering our life energy.
Feeling powerless or low energy can come from fears of naturally expressing emotion. We communicate to the environment around us with our feelings and emotions. Greens understand this and live in natural harmony with mind and body.
Greens have a strong connection with both nature and their physical bodies. They have a need to express themselves and be physically active. Spending time in nature, gardening or working with animals creates a feeling of being connected to the Earth. Animals, especially horses, cats and dogs feel the openness and natural understanding of Greens and are drawn to them.
Greens have a balanced attitude toward the material world, luxury and prosperity. The often feel that every human being should live in an abundant environment. There is no need to suffer or live in poverty. They are usually good at managing their own material possessions.
Because Greens have a strong connection with mother earth, they easily change, adapting themselves to different environments. They clearly understand the concept of flexibility and the need for constant change in our world, a process that occurs effortlessly in nature every day. Greens have a tendency of taking life easy and have the capacity to enjoy most life situations. But they do need to feel secure and safe in their environment and within.
Green personalities are quick, abstract and analytical thinkers jumping from one step to another without being concerned about the steps in between. The have the ability to see the big picture. They prefer to develop and express their ideas, and then to organize and delegate work. They are efficient planners, having a need to understand everything they do. They process data quickly through their minds with their heart in control, usually making maximum use of this ability in all aspects of their life.
Greens are able to quickly recognize patterns and solutions to challenges facing them. They enjoy setting goals, which they want to achieve as soon as possible. However, sometimes they don't have enough power or ambition to see those same goals to fruition. They often prefer organizing, structuring, planning and communicating their projects, to the actual work.
Greens have high expectations and specific beliefs about life. This is especially prevalent in their relationships with other people and their financial situation. They expect life to go their way. They usually prefer a natural and easy going life, rather than one which is hectic and filled with stress based primarily on earning money and achieving goals.
They need to be independent in the sense that they have their own agenda and way of life. Greens need to feel that they are their own boss and are free to express, explore and change any situation.
Out of power Greens can be lethargic, irresponsible, stuck and resistant to change. Growth and personal evolution, which they inwardly crave, may mean too much action and effort are required. With this attitude they may be unable to discover their true fulfillment and may go through life without any real direction or goals. And thus, life will have no meaning for them. They may eventually adjust to the status quo and adapt to their environment. Finding goals then will be difficult because they have no strong ambitions. They may ultimately end up questioning their purpose in life without finding answers or solutions.
Out of balance Greens often overly project their need to communicate and their love towards nature and animals. They prefer to be with their animals or alone with nature to experience a feeling of balance and communion. They often behave this way because they are afraid to confront themselves with an even greater adventure: to love, to communicate and to interact with other human beings with all their positive and negative tendencies. Personal growth, evolution and natural change are difficult to perceive for Greens who are out-of-power.
Greens can become passive and disoriented at times. They express similarities to cats, enjoying doing nothing at all for long periods of time. They just stretch out and relax, which allows them to create harmony and balance and to recharge their life energy batteries.
Unbalanced Greens may be afraid to confront situations or challenges, preferring to stay on the outside. This makes them appear superficial or shallow. Then they are afraid to open their hearts and truly experience the power of love and affection. Their challenge is to understand that learning only takes place by confronting and dealing with life situations and challenges. If they are afraid to leave their comfort zone or take any chances in life, growth and change will not be possible.
Greens need to connect with their overwhelming unconditional love towards life. When they do they will discover goals for themselves, which make life worth living. Also, when this occurs, they will take the necessary actions to make their own changes or allow the natural changes to take place by themselves.
In power Greens know that life, by itself, is enough. They are constantly growing, processing and integrating body, mind and spirit. Spirituality means balance and harmony to Greens. Being in contact with fellow human beings and nature is being connected to God. Friendship, love and understanding are important aspects to a Green. Oneness is a concept that is second nature to them.
SOCIAL LIFE
Greens are social and love to be with their family and friends. This is their form of security. To feel understood and accepted is very important.
They need harmony and prefer a relaxed, balanced, peaceful environment. Being around people allows them to communicate and express their deepest feelings. And of course, having contact with animals and nature is extremely fulfilling to these loving personalities.

They often have no fear of communicating with strangers and make friends easily. These expressive personalities are often found in social groups or organizations. Community work and sharing life with their family and close friends is very rewarding to them.
This interaction tells them they are alive and gives them the feeling of being needed and being part of the whole. Because of their ability to share, heal and communicate, Greens are often found in teaching or therapeutic professions, such as doctors, chiropractors, massage therapists, holistic healers, or spiritual physiologists. All areas where they can express their innate understanding of true love, brotherhood and self empowerment are welcome avenues of expression for these devoted beings.
RELATIONSHIPS AND INTIMACY
To be Green is to be in relationships and interact with humans, animals and nature. These relationships are their primary way of perceiving life. They view their world in terms of communication and personal interaction. They like to relate to the world around them. They need people to talk with and to share their thoughts and feelings. Green personalities naturally interact with others.
They will talk with almost anyone without holding back their most intimate thoughts and feelings. They are open and forthcoming to the point where some people perceive them as insensitive, overwhelming or intense.
Sometimes it may be difficult for them to develop intimate relationships. Casual conversation and a general sense of openness does not necessarily guarantee a deep interpersonal connection or meaningful friendship. Emotional intimacy may be risky for some, but it will be the most fulfilling and they will crave this in any long lasting relationship. Their open mind and heart allows them to relate with almost every personality type. Greens love to be together with their family or close friends.
Greens enjoy being sexually active. For them sex means making love. It gives them a real sense of being alive. They are affectionate creatures and love to touch.

Greens match easily with Deep-Greens, visionary Violets and all physical colors. The secure and grounded Deep-Red is sought after, and the power of a Red adds to the mental and expressive abilities of a Green. Yellow personalities have a lightness, which Greens love.
Greens have a challenge to understand the loving and emotional ways of Blues. Lavenders and Greens can talk about every subject for hours. As long as Greens can communicate and express themselves with their partners and they feel accepted and recognized, harmonious relationships are easy to create.
CAREER AND FINANCES
Greens have similar personality traits as Deep-Greens. Their financial attention is not on making money or achieving goals, but on having money and living an abundant life. Greens are not fond of working hard whether physically or mentally. They may not be completely responsible when it comes to earning money for themselves. They often find it easier to have someone else support them, or just decide to slow down and only earn enough money for their own basic needs. On the other hand, some Greens are security conscious. They need to live in a safe and balanced environment where challenges with money don't exist. Fighting for survival causes tension – something, which bothers Greens very much.
Greens are friendly and helpful. Because they know how to communicate what they want or need, they constantly receive help from others. They seem to understand the concept of nature's support system. If you ask, you will receive. Their challenge is to recognize when they need to initiate action to make things happen.
Greens solve their challenges not only because they have friends or know the right people in the right places, but also because they have good analytical and organizational abilities. Their strong mind/body connection and their willingness to take action allow them to handle challenges efficiently and quickly. Greens come up with detailed and clever ideas. They possess a natural intuition, which allows them to be quick-minded and innovative. But some Greens do not act on their ideas for themselves, preferring to devote their incredible energy into supporting others. They often accept the visions of others assisting them in their creation. In these cases they do not have the ambition or stamina to create and complete their own projects, because they do not honor themselves enough or trust that their ideas are important. Their challenge is to take action to make their own ideas and plans happen -- for themselves.
Greens love to work with nature, animals or other people. They have an inner need to communicate in any form with their environment. They also need a friendly and balanced place in which to work. As a result of not being tremendously goal driven, their interests are more focused on nature and humanitarian, interpersonal issues.
Some "green" occupations include: gardener, environmental researcher, farmer, social worker, veterinarian, mother, teacher, therapist, counselor, secretary.
HEALTH, WELL-BEING AND GROWTH
The way for Greens to find harmony is to accept full responsibility for themselves and to live their own life to the best of their abilities. They need to get in contact with their body, mind, heart and spirit, feeling the natural flow of growth and love within them. When they know what they want and have defined their goals clearly, they will be supported by nature with unlimited energy.
Greens are natural healers and communicators with a need to understand their purpose in life, constantly growing emotionally and spiritually. They can bridge and unify body, mind and soul, showing humanity that friendship, sympathy, openness, communication and a strong sense of heart are important aspects and qualities of human life. When Greens express themselves naturally, they recharge their batteries automatically. In power Greens are healthy individuals. Their body/mind/heart connection guides them in every situation.
Living in a balanced harmonious environment close to nature, is therapeutic to them. To stay well and centered, Greens need to talk, expressing their feelings and thoughts, as they process the many changes they experience on their path of personal growth. They will be unhappy if they suppress their feelings and emotions. The greatest gift Greens can give themselves is to be natural, pure and simple human beings. This is also the most significant lesson they can teach and offer humanity. Greens need a lot of time for themselves. Relaxing at a peaceful lake, in a wonderful garden or in their own home is very recharging for them. Green love to just be with close friends, talk about old times, take it easy, relax and enjoy life.
Greens usually like to be physically active. They prefer skiing, swimming, jogging with their dog, dancing and other activities, which naturally put them in contact with themselves.

Growth is the most natural thing on earth and to embrace it, is to evolve into the self-empowered, magnificent beings they are.
