The Meaning: The immediate thought is brightness, sunshine. Historically, it has been associated with worship and knowledge. In China, the color represents "yang", the active and creative male portion of harmony. Some cultures believe its ability to chase evil spirits away. Yellow is a bright color that goes well in combination with many other colors and should always be used with darker, vibrant colors. <<<
