colors

in terms of chakras, which i try to think of geographically before hippie-dippishly (burroughs' seven cities of the red night), more like living on the body... red being the broadest, the common, the everyone, the sex organs, maybe california, babies are in control, bodily communion etc... orange is like taboo, jackass, nude not naked, edu-kink-tional, fuckshitdamnbitch, food fight... yellow is like saying No and Me, but it means something for the first time (so, saying no again, establishing No). No power. yellow is opinions, personality palette, new york? or at least new yorker... green is a sensation of proportion or reestablishing postion and destination at once and without even moving a muscle... blue is moving the muscle, and removing the muscle (dropping one's guard)... indigo is pausing to consider progress/ possibilities (the scilla and caribdes?)... purple is tricky, purple is anticipating the feelings one will have upon arriving at one's destination, that is, purple is playing dead. purple is acting like what dead/alive means to an individual. purple is tricky to everyone but the individual and sometimes the individual themself, that they are this way, and not just actors on a stage, as shakespeare might say. purple is the point at which one knows they are acting and can decide which play they want to be in. "nothing is true and everything is permitted."
there should be opposites attracting here... yellow is rejecting, paring down to the bone of the individual while purple is accepting, trying on costume... red is being a baby ("everything is true and nothing is permitted."), green is nurturing a baby (the nature/nurture debate)... orange is breaking the rules and learning from punishment, blue is setting the rules and learning from their effectiveness

i tend to think that anyone can be any age at any time and in any order that they want, if they are aware that they can do it this way, or if circumstances (trauma or 'divine invitations') force them to do it in a non-traditional order, whether they are aware or not. for the most part, age is a good indication of where someone is at. for the average joe and jolene, life goes on. but some people are dawdlers, some are burning up the road. some people split in half and do both at once, which must be exhausting. i think britany spears, what i have read of her anyway, seems to be shirley temple then and elizabeth taylor now slap fighting in a sex shop. (as for me, picture a four year old mozart and any gray old wino that lives under a bridge going to a basketball game together. it is exhausting! ce la vie...)
it would be interesting if people referred to their age by color
but that would be too organic, time is much more consistent for record-keeping, even if it really isnt indicating anything.

living on the body is perpetuating the play, watching/acting. living in the body is like financing the play, renting the theatre, buying the costumes, building the sets, etc... this is a special role to fill, not for everyone. and people usually dont ask questions, unless it is in their script.
