Everyone gives off a color, whether they know it or not. This color personality quiz asks seven quick questions about your mood, your friendships and your favorite way to spend a day off, then reveals whether you're a fiery red, a calm blue, a sunny yellow or a grounded green. Find out what shade your personality really is.
When Isaac Newton studied how a prism splits sunlight, he divided the spectrum into seven named colors. He started with five and added orange and indigo, partly so the count would match the seven notes of a musical scale. That choice is a good reminder that how we name and group colors is partly a human decision, not just physics.
Colors also come loaded with meaning, and those meanings change from place to place. In the US, white is the traditional color for weddings, while in parts of East Asia it has long been linked with mourning. Researchers have studied whether colors affect mood and behavior, and the findings are mixed, but most people still have a favorite and feel it says something about them.
This quiz asks about your ideal day off, how you argue, your music taste, your vacation spot and what drives you. Each answer leans toward one of four colors, and the color you pick most often becomes your result. There are no wrong answers, and it's meant for fun rather than as a scientific personality test, so trust your instincts and see which shade matches your mood.
