Color in the Visible and Invisible World 259 



color by which he is surrounded; and the effect of 

 that color is from its explicit action upon the hu- 

 man sheaths. 



In chemical research, the hints which color gives 

 are but half-understood, and throughout the scien- 

 tific world its power and mystery are greatly de- 

 preciated. In the chemical changes of atoms, all 

 variations of colors indicate fundamental differ- 

 ences in either their constitution or their phase, 

 whether positive or negative. Dr. Babbitt's inves- 

 tigations led him to conclude that the positive, or 

 active, color was always within the atom, and the 

 negative, or passive, without. But to my under- 

 standing this is only a half-truth, describing one 

 atomic phase ; and it is not corroborated by Occult 

 study (clairvoyant), which distinguishes " ultimate 

 physical atoms " by their direction of motion, the 

 ever-spiral force moving from right to left in the 

 positive, and from left to right in the negative; the 

 former pouring out force and the latter receiving 

 it (see Bibliography). 



There are as many grades, shades, and hues, of 

 color as of musical tones and combinations of geo- 

 metrical forms; so the further we go from the so- 

 called primaries of red, yellow, and blue, the more 

 intricate, baffling and mysterious are these color re- 

 lations. 



Blue has been called the negative in nature 

 which holds all things. Now, replacing " blue "
