    Default Colors of quadras

    What colors do you associate with quadras?

    My association is:

    alpha: blue/sky - ideas, high thoughts
    beta: red/fire - war, struggle
    gamma: yellow/gold - wisdom, reason
    delta: green/trees - peace, prosperity
    Types examples: video bloggers, actors

    My own bias says:

    Alpha - Yellow and Green
    Beta - Orange and Black and Brown
    Gamma - Blue and Red
    Delta - White, Gray and Violet


    I actually made a spreadsheet a couple of years ago with all the quadras on it, and I colored the squares as follows:

    Alpha - Yellow for Ne. Yellow is a color which indicates Trust, so "Trust the Possibilities"
    Beta - Light blue for Ti. Blue is a cool, rational, thoughtful color. (Te is dark blue, or thought with a direction.)
    Gamma - Red, because I like Red and I'm Gamma. Red indicates strong feelings, so it could reflect Fi or Fe, but the Betas already got Light Blue, so Red for Fi.
    Delta - Green, because Deltas are so calm and settled in their Si.

    Subjective Color meanings:
    Red = Strong feelings
    Orange = Fast and aggressive
    Yellow = Trust, bright, cheerful
    Green = Safety, calmness
    Blue = Rational thought
    Violet = Sex
    Purple = Deep thought
    Black = Cold and Mysterious
    White = Purity
    Gray = neutral, can go anywhere

    Alpha - Yellow : Children of the socion. Playful enthusiasm with ideas,affinity for novelty, comfort, and ambiance. Name a serious person who likes yellow. They live in fantastic concepts and live for warm fresh baked cookies.

    Beta - Red : The reckless revolutionaries of the socion: Execution of force, foreseeing danger, logic of events, and morale. They are the teenage warlords fighting for unimportant things, like what color you can wear on Wednesdays if you want to sit at their table at lunch. But also, Genghis Khan.

    Gamma - Green : The Bankers of the socion. Business logic, preemptive of opportunity, bold in action, and biased towards their inner circle. They have the biggest stack of qualities favorable to success in a capitalist society and run conjunct and parallel in those values.

    Delta - Blue : The small town sheriffs of the socion. Utility of knowledge, everyday social common sense, potential of people, and worldly view of neighborly compassion. Cool with what they have, they just want their plot of land, people to say what they mean, and their guns.
    Projection is ordinary. Person A projects at person B, hoping tovalidate something about person A by the response of person B. However, person B, not wanting to be an obejct of someone elses ego and guarding against existential terror constructs a personality which protects his ego and maintain a certain sense of a robust and real self that is different and separate from person A. Sadly, this robust and real self, cut off by defenses of character from the rest of the world, is quite vulnerable and fragile given that it is imaginary and propped up through external feed back. Person B is dimly aware of this and defends against it all the more, even desperately projecting his anxieties back onto person A, with the hope of shoring up his ego with salubrious validation. All of this happens without A or B acknowledging it, of course. Because to face up to it consciously is shocking, in that this is all anybody is doing or can do and it seems absurd when you realize how pathetic it is.
