Chestnut Color. Invitation to Recollection, to Stillness, to Peace |
Comfort, home, contemplation, stillness, temperance, security, a feeling of peace and tranquillity, stability, foundation, earth.
The colour Chestnut reminds us of all physical reality, the reality of sowing time and harvest time. The reality that even if tomorrow seems dark, there can always be a positive change, even if it is based on hard work and effort.
Chestnut is the warmth of the home fire. Lazy nights, of memories and ancestral tales. The colour of traditions and of not letting ourselves be fooled by those who sell you uncertain futures, but of realistic and practical support behind decisions. Chestnut takes us back a little, “perhaps it is better to wait for tomorrow”, it helps us not to be impulsive and not “throw ourselves” after life, but to let life come to us and experience it passively, just enjoying it, absorbing it, collecting back the energies that we used actively in the past, to recover and recharge ourselves with energy.
Chestnut is the color of Temperance, yes, but also the color of Patience, of Calm, of Stability, of Discernment, of Common Sense. Of knowing how to choose between what is good and what is apparently good, but really is not.

Brown color is effective in the treatment of nymphomania |
Therapeutically, Chestnut is mainly used to instil stability in cases of over-excitement, so it is very effective in combating childhood hyperactivity and excessively fiery passions such as Nymphomania.
It also calms emotions and extreme mental disorders, providing common sense, order and self-control, not allowing us to do crazy things. Chestnut roots us, making us aware that we must “keep both feet on the ground.”
The color Brown can be used to stabilize all body systems and charge them with energy without over-exciting them. A very good color for all people who work with the land, in the fields, such as farmers, who perhaps need extra energy as a result of their physical body work.
Metaphysically, it can be explained as the color, the self-assured light, not due to unfounded illusions, but based on deep discernment and totally practical work that provides the security of doing things well.
The color Chestnut is our Ego manifested on earth thanks to our creative energies, but also thanks to the telluric energies of nature. For this reason it is the color of farmers, who need nature to manifest their thoughts.
If we analyze the color Chestnut we will observe the simple bright tone, the golden touch, the divine brushstroke, the loving light, which the cultivated land needs to grow and become a harvest.
