<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">Of late, quite a number of women are seen wearing black robes as routine dress. Generally black robes were worn by women on formal occasions such as college convocations or as sartorial requirements of careers such as lawyers and judges. Today the incidence of women wearing full black robes has become ubiquitous. How people who are witnessing this change of lifestyle react? This blog post details few such reactions and the cosmics behind such reactions that impair your chances of improving your life.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><b><font face="Calibri" size="3">Reactions</font></b></p>
<p align="justify"><b><font face="Calibri" size="3"></font></b></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">The negative cosmics generated by women in black robes bring forth several negative reactions from people who see them. The following are few of the illustrations:</font></p>
<p align="justify"><b><font face="Calibri" size="3">Illustrations</font></b></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">1. A woman in black robe gets boards a public bus; seeing her a child gets frightened and starts crying shouting “Ghost”; the conductor asks the woman in robe either to remove the robe or disembark; she refuses to do either; the conductor stops the bus and forces the child and mother off the bus amidst the protests of other passengers</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">2. A bride to be walks into the jewellery shop to buy the bridal jewellery and accessory. The first thing she sees is a woman in black robe; as it is not auspicious to be served by a woman in black robe as regards to bridal wear, the bride to be walks away from the jewellers </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">3. The blood pressure of a patient is being checked in an infirmary. At this moment a woman in black robe comes into the laboratory. Seeing her the systolic pressure of the patient sky rockets</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">4. An office worker starts from his home to travel to his office. At this moment a woman in black robe enters his house through the main door; while in his office misfortunes dog him the entire day and when he returns home he is fully dejected and disoriented</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">5. A shop keeper opens his shop and was occasioned to serve a woman in black robe; his business take out on that day plummets terribly.</font></p>
<p align="justify"><b><font face="Calibri" size="3">Rationale behind Illustrations</font></b></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">1. For many children, women in black bring the image of witches or evil genies; besides scary stories of these witches and evil genies besotting the pages of history spook even the adults. Moreover, when a person sees a woman in black robe his sensory organs tickle the negative and dark side of his memory bringing scenes of death, bereavement, shroud, sepulchre and mourning. Sometimes he also gets an aroma of death in as dried carnation flowers. For most women in black robes instil fear of the evil, the un-known; the menace, the dark side of anything; not to mention Lucifer </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">2. Most feel a sense of revulsion when they see women in black robes when they embark on auspicious occasions; they see the women in black robes as persons protesting or rebelling against the social order. Furthermore, seeing women in black robes brings un-luck; as in the Hindu tradition the Lady Fortune (Goddess Lakshmi) never appear wearing black colour</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">3. For those who are convalescing and suffering from chronic illness seeing women in black robes give feeling of depression, anxiety, loneliness, sorrow; being negative, passive and inundated with lot of pessimism. To top it all they are simply intimidated</font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">4. For many, black attracts bad vibes; genies hang on to their black coats or cloaks and enter houses without anybody’s knowledge. In Eastern cultures seeing menstruating women first thing in the morning (called Mulichi in Tamil), is very bad omen<b><i>. </i></b>Besides, if the menstruating women wear black cloaks or over-alls it is double whammy. </font></p>
<p align="justify"><font face="Calibri" size="3">5. Seeing women in black robes first thing on a day brings ill-luck; besides, as in the Hindu tradition the Lady Fortune (Goddess Lakshmi) never appear wearing black colour. Moreover, when you see a woman in black robes, you always get a feeling that you are in “a bind”, something that overlooking you that does not make you move forward. </font></p>

<p><font size="3"><font face="Calibri">Black is a colour steeped in mystery and traditions; religions and cultures use this colour in abundance. Black is the beginning; everything starts with the colour black pervading. The creation itself starts with darkness and the God orders that “there shall be light, and light there was”. So runs the scriptures. Babies are born from mothers’ womb, once again from the world of darkness. After college education, the successful students file past in their convocations donning black cloaks. Marriage ceremony takes place often with the groom in formal dress mainly in black. When the end of life comes black pervades once again in its full and manifest strength. So the colour black is with us. But is it good, bad or ugly? I am describing in the blog post the <b><i>general facts along with good, bad and ugly features of the black colour.</i></b></font></font></p>
<p><b><i><font face="Calibri" size="3">1. General Facts</font></i></b></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">Black colour actually means absence of any colour; in the Indian Vedic system black is considered to be in the colourless region. </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">1. It denote the cosmic night – what is un-seen, un-fathomed and un-known; it goes deep into infinity on the horizon and it goes deep underneath the earth where nobody has ever ventured </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">2. Two issues make black colour cosmically important. One, it is formless hence requires intervention of form from elsewhere; the other, it works within; it boils inside and needs another colour may be white or magenta or any other to brighten it up<b><i>. </i></b>This dependence made the colour be something feminine. From time immemorial women liked this colour. Today girls and ladies wear black colour (I am omitting the word clothes to keep it short and sweet) both as inner and outer garments </font></p>
<p><font size="3"><font face="Calibri">3. In the paint industry more than 50 % of the production consists of either black or white colour paints. Though black is considered to be a background colour for many activities, such as painting, drawing, acting, drama and so on, it is simply the fusion of three basic colours: <b><i>Red, Blue and Yellow </i></b></font></font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">4. Religious leaders selected black as their chosen colour; Jewish Rabbis began this tradition later followed in the Christian liturgy generously; the swirling movements of the dancing Sufi Dervesh ( Mendicants ) in their black coloured breast coats is too spectacular for you to watch </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">5. It is a colour of formal occasions; in the court rooms lawyers wear black cloak universally. In formal ceremonies majority of the men still wear black colour suits </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">6. The curative properties of black coloured gems and crystals such as black obsidian (apache tears) smoky quartz, black onyx, black tourmaline (schorl) black opals and black pearls are well known </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">7. Black colour is specially recommended for those born in the 21<sup>st</sup> lunar mansion of the City ( Arabic Manzil Al-Baldah ); those born in the lunar days of 8 , 17 and 26; those who have number combination where 8 is prominent; those whose names begin with H, F , P and S. </font></p>
<p><b><i><font face="Calibri" size="3">2. Good</font></i></b></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">There are several positive cosmics in black colour: </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">1. Most grounding colour, it makes you put your feet down and stand with strength and resoluteness; for a serious minded, conservative and conventional person black is <b><i>“the colour</i></b>”. </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">2. When wearing black you will feel that the ground energy begins to flow from your feet and move upward, energizing all your energy centres (Chakras). This happens via the spinal cord. This energy, feminine in nature meets up with white colour flowing downward from the head. The meeting place could be anywhere in the body frame </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">3. When you require a high degree of inner strength and focus, black is the colour that helps; you can concentrate and zoom in on a question, say a math or other issue </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">4. Black works in two ways depending on the person who wear; for some it attracts bad vibration (see under Bad); for some it repels black magic. You have heard about diamond cutting diamond; same thing prevails in black magic and spells. By wearing black you counter the effects of bad vibes. This is the reason why exorcists throughout the world use white garments with a black coat or cap </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">5. Black gives you security; women fearing the opposite sex often resort to black cloaks or over-alls to seek refuge. Inside such cloaks or over-alls they feel very secure, but when they are out these they are dead scared of men, a bitter psychological condition </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">6. Aristocracy and the wealthy wear black over-alls to project authority and awe; but generally remove the black over-alls as they enter their palaces to prevent any bad vibes streaming inside </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">7. Black gives you authority, power and prestige; it gives you composure, rest and a feeling of slow-tuning zing </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">8. Oh yes<b><i>.</i></b> Black is a definite plus for sex and sexuality; ladies wear black for style and elegance; that is what they say; in fact they do this for inciting sex in men </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">9. When females wear black it gives them a slim look but when men wear it they get an athletic look </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">10. Black mixes well with light colours and in such combination black enhances the brightness of the other colour </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">11. Inside house and rooms black dulls brightness but compensates by giving an ambience of rest, sobriety and silence </font></p>
<p><b><i><font face="Calibri" size="3">3. Bad</font></i></b></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">Inappropriate use of black colour gives the following negative cosmics: </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">1. The word black is often used with bad connotation; black denotes protest, rebel, and the dress code for the hangmen and the ones to be hanged </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">2. Black is symbolized with death, bereavement, shroud, sepulchre and mourning </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">3. Black instills the fear of the un-known; the dark side of anything; It resonates well with Evil and Lucifer </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">4. It also signifies something hidden but important, like black box in an aircraft </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">5. It gives the feeling of depression, anxiety, loneliness, sorrow; being negative, passive and inundated with lot of pessimism </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">6. You always get a feeling that you are in “a bind”; something that overlooking you like a CTV camera in a supermarket or something that does not make you move forward </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">7. It makes the wearer feel aloof, proud and prejudiced like a pea-cock in plumes </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">8. In the colour personality test developed by <b><i>Dr. Max Luscher</i></b>, black expresses the idea of nothingness, renunciation, surrender or relinquishment </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">9. Al-Biruni, the famous Arab astronomer dismissed black as the colour of Saturn and anything connected to this evil planet </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">10. For some, black attracts bad vibes; genies hang on to their black coats or cloaks and enter houses without the wearer’s knowledge. This is acute generally in the case of women wearing cloaks when they are menstruating. </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">11. In Eastern cultures seeing menstruating women first thing in the morning (called Mulichi in Tamil), is very bad omen<b><i>. </i></b>Besides, if the menstruating women wear black cloaks or over-alls it is double whammy </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">12. In Hindu tradition the goddess Kali (war) god Yama (death) are dressed in black </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">13. Black inside home would destroy positive vibration and make it a graveyard </font></p>
<p><b><i><font face="Calibri" size="3">4. Ugly</font></i></b></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">Over-use of black colour gives the following very negative cosmics: </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">1. Though black absorbs heat, like inside a black umbrella, it drains the cosmic energy coming from the sunlight; too much black cloaks and over-alls destroys the cosmic harmony of the entire world. Not only that, the over-use of black cloaks and over-alls deprives others who are in the vicinity of the black wearers, the benefit of enjoying cosmic rays. </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">2. The colour rays that pour down on the earth are for the benefit of the entire humanity. These rays nurture and nourish the earth and its atmosphere. When lots of people wear black cloaks or over-alls, the cosmic rays are blunted and sent back to the atmosphere. This phenomenon creates havoc in the atmosphere as piled up rays tend to break the ozone belt </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">3. Ozone belt is not only destroyed by the use of chemicals and gases but by the indiscriminate use of black colour. While attempts are being made to reduce the impact of chemicals and gases, sadly, no effort is being made to reduce the over-use of black </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">4. Black incites the dark and criminal quality of sub-conscious mind. When this happens the criminal element takes the upper hand and men and women are forced to engage in criminal activities to satisfy the dark desires that lie deep-seated in their minds </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">5. Black also intimidates the people who innocently witness too many people wearing black in their vicinity </font></p>
<p><font face="Calibri" size="3">6. Finally too much of black destroys the cosmic balance of the earth and its people, a danger that needs immediate attention by the human race. </font></p>
