Is Your Life a Bowl of Cherries?

If you’ve been with me for any length of time you’ll know at least two things about these Color Communications. One is that I started offering this to my readers after finding some resources by Inna Segal who uses color to help people heal their bodies and live better and secondly that my emphasis in coaching is with my Major 8™ areas and that I “heal” in all of these areas. Inna tells us that Cherry means that we should seek to live an extraordinary life. I say by all means do so and let’s find a bit more and why. 

Today’s color is “Cherry” to which your first response may be, “Ter, Cherry ain’t no color”. That’s OK, because we are going to “make it so” today. Cherries are mostly a deep red in color but regardless, their color and symbolism is what we will research and apply to us at our situation today.

So you’ve chosen this color from 3 options today; forget about the other two as this one that you chose is “for you”. But how is it “for you”? Ever notice that when you purchase a different car that you never really noticed that make and model before? Before you bought that dress, shirt or tie, you never gave it a thought as to who else is wearing it and now it seems like the world owns your wardrobe?

There are other examples I could mention but I want to make the point that in a few moments you will join me in researching the “color” Cherry. Already you have some “preconceived” notions which I will tell you now that, “this is good”. Whatever thoughts you have, right now, get them out on paper. Use your Color Journal and use a color of pen or pencil and write, doodle or draw something about Cherries. Now think about your current situation or situations. Where are you in each area of the Major 8™? How are your relationships with your loved ones; how are they in their “well-being”? How are you doing in attaining your wants, needs, desires and goals? How strong is your belief level for accomplishing those things? Finally, yes, do you have more money to spare and share?

After you’ve taken stock in what you have, what you don’t have and what you would like to have; now we are ready to find out more about the color Cherry. As I reveal information that I find, immediately jot down the thoughts which come to you which address your present situation. That’s really what these Color Communications are all about. This is real and life changing when you want real life changes. This is your color; you chose it so now let’s see what it means to most people who also chose the color but only you with your current situation and knowledge of your situation can truly know how to use the information as it comes to you.

Are you ready? Here it comes! 

The color Cherry. Some readers will take that line and run with it. They will name their rock band that; or title a romance novel by that name. I guess that I wasn’t too far from right with that since when I looked in Wikipedia I found:

Cherry red may refer to:
"Cherry Red" (Law & Order: Criminal Intent), an episode of Law & Order: Criminal Intent
Cherry Red Airline, a defunct Canadian airline
Cherry Red Records, a UK record label
Cerise (color), a colour
"Cherry Red" (song), a 1966 song by the Bee Gees
"Cherry Red", a song by Ida Maria from Katla

Wiktionary tells us that the color is: A deep bright red color, like that of a cherry.
Vocabulary.com states that cherry-red is that of a color at the end of the color spectrum (next to orange); resembling the color of blood or cherries or tomatoes or rubies.

One interesting site which offered this about cherries and the cherry tree: Today, the Cherry tree remains a reminder of life’s preciousness in Japan. It also represents spring and innocent pleasures. By comparison, in China Cherry blossoms reflect the ultimate in femininity, woman’s beauty and sexuality.

The fruit of this Tree Spirit has emblematic ties to the elixir of life that gives the Gods their immortality. In the Human realm, the juice symbolizes the immortality of our soul and reincarnation. Some of this implication has roots in a natural cycle for the cherry tree – namely spreading thousands of seedlings as if to ensure its continuance.

Cherry Tree Symbolic Meaning:

Rebirth; Life’s fragility; Splendor; Continuance; New Beginnings; Family ties; Spring; Health; Nature’s Bounty
Crystal Connections for Cherry Tree:
Red coral; Bloodstone; Garnet; Red Jasper; Cinnabar

Did you know that there is such a thing as cherry quartz crystal?

Cherry Quartz crystal is a healer for emotional wounds and can help with anger and tension. Cherry Quartz has all the qualities of quartz and is also great for the heart chakra. Cherry Quartz is great for concentration so is an excellent choice for anyone studying for exams. Healing properties for Cherry Quartz crystal can help with colds, flu and infections and can be of assistance with burns.

Today and even this week, wear something which is “cherry red” in color. Buy some cherries and enjoy them. Be sure to share your thoughts, comments and experiences at the end of this article. (Cherries can be very sensual so when you comment, remember that this is a “family show”).

When I meet Inna I will have to ask her how and where she came up with the healing properties of her “colors”. I could not find anywhere, other than her materials, where Cherries, or the color Cherry offers encouragement to live extraordinarily. I’m not arguing so I did some research on “how to live extraordinary” and found this:


  • Step outside of your comfort zone, 
  • Go just one step beyond the point where you would typically stop, and 
  • Don’t let logic or reason stop you from taking action. 


Remember when I started and said that as things are revealed that you’ll think of things? I remember how in the past someone pointed out that that extraordinary is “extra-ordinary”; adding something extra to “ordinary”.

Enjoy your Cherry research and simply apply what you find to you and your present situation. When you chose this color at Answers from the Cosmos, you were one of many others who also chose this color but the difference is that you are different and your situation is different. Find something here that will change your life from ordinary to extraordinary!
