Rose Color Meanings... Do They Affect You?
Considering the many colors of roses available to the public, have you ever wondered about rose color meanings?
Sure there are set meanings for each color, but, just like art, what may be very appealing to one may be revolting to another. Different colors may mean different things to different cultures.
Take for example the color white; it is a color of hope for some yet for the Chinese, it is a color for mourning in funerals.
So what do rose colors mean to you?
Before you think about what rose colors means to you, try to figure out what kind of person you are. What background, ethnic, cultural or what have you. To make clear my point, I’ll use myself as an example.
Take the red rose; traditionally, it means “I love you” and if I were to receive a red rose, I’d accept it as such with much appreciation. However, if I dig deep into my psyche, if someone gives me a red rose I’ll interpret it that the giver has no imagination.
Why?
Red roses are one of the more, if not the most, popular color of rose.
I would think that the giver had no imagination to even choose a different, less common color. Not that I won’t appreciate the gesture, but that is how I think. So how do rose color meanings affect you?
It can mean anything you want, depending how your mind works of course.
Another example is the black rose. Though some people say such a color doesn’t exist, there are some reports that it does exist. Giving it a rarity worth more than a thousand red roses.
Now, people maintain that a black rose signifies death, which unfortunately, the belief was made popular by Hollywood. But for me, a black rose would mean so much more.
Due to its rarity and, admit it, its somber beauty makes it a very precious flower. So if someone asks you, what do rose colors mean to you and offer you a black rose, don’t take it as a sign of contempt or hatred, but if you think more realistically, a black rose may mean that someone went through all the hard work finding a black rose for you.
A black rose may mean death, but for me, it means something rare and beautiful exists in the world.
No matter what color roses you receive, more often than not, the giver has no idea what those colors mean. Unless they specify otherwise, roses can mean anything.
If you know how the giver thinks, you might have an idea what he or she means when giving you a colored rose. What may mean love for others may mean anger for some.
So if you receive a rose from someone and if they don’t have any clue, you’re free to interpret it as you so choose. So, rose color meanings can really be anything & everything you wish for.
