Symblosim of Black , Grey and white.



This post im making because..


Yesterdays 400th episode rocked.. i noticed so many things in the sequence where Varad and Niranjan with the lawyer discuss on the Vasiyat and Zaidad.. ,

My observations .. with pictures..






1. Niranjan was in White kurta... ( representing that he has changed.. after the back stap by Own Naive Varad ..the elder son..)

2.Varad in Black Shirt and Grey Suit.. ( He was white and he became black.. But all these time he was Grey... Neutral ..He was pretending from the beginning .. when shlok was around too.. he disguised himself as White ..the inncoent ... but gave birth to a Negative force inside him..jealous of whatever Niranjan and Shlok had.. their love ..their chemistry.. the bond.. every thing..

Varad.. has takenover NA's money leaving Niranjan with nothing.. But Varad doesnt know that MONEY DOESNT MEAN THAT IT CAN BE EQUATED WITH LOVE WHICH VARAD HAS BEEN LONGING FOR.. WHEN DID THE LOVE WHICH VARAD WANTED TURN INTO JEALOUS, ARROGANCE, MONEY MINDED , MORE OF IMMATERIAL ASPECTS.. )..


3. The Flower vase on the corner table..It was with vertical Black and white stripes.. with lots of colorful flowers.. representing this house which was and still with colorful flowers.. ( earlier with anjy, astha , shlok ..now only with kavya)...


4. The ferns indoor plant .. black the pot and  the ferns green .. I could see the comparison or the relativity with the past sequence.. about the potted plant. Niranjan broke the potted plant once when Anjy supported  AStha in the disclosure track..now the same BITTER TRUTH DISCLOSED .. THAT VARAD WAS IN A SLY AND TWIN PERSONALITY..


5.  The comparison leading too.. Potted plant once broken by NA .. pointing towards NA's act that he should bring back Astha , Anjy and Shlok for AM to become as the same... which i feel for some time it may not happen..


Finally Sojal and Jaya.. Sojal in black saree.. she will run the house as the tulsi plant but in hands with Varad who is black.. the demon or the dark force.. 

Jaya.. multicolor saree.. who will change her pesonaltiy as an when required..

The Color Black

The color black relates to the hidden, the secretive and the unknown, and as a result it creates an air of mystery. It keeps things bottled up inside, hidden from the world.

In color psychology this color gives protection from external emotional stress.

It creates a barrier between itself and the outside world, providing comfort while protecting its emotions and feelings, and hiding its vulnerabilities, insecurities and lack of self confidence.

Black is the absorption of all color and the absence of light.

Black hides, while white brings to light.

What black covers, white uncovers.

We all use black at various times to hide from the world around us in one way or another. Some of us use it to hide our weight; others among us use it to hide our feelings, our fears or our insecurities.

In color psychology, black means power and control, hanging on to information and things rather than giving out to others.


Black is intimidating, unfriendly and unapproachable because of the power it exudes.

It can prevent two-way communication because of its intimidation. The salesman wearing all black will make a lot of sales, but no friends! It radiates authority, but creates fear in the process.

Black implies self-control and discipline, independence and a strong will, and giving an impression of authority and power.

Black absorbs negative energy. It is useful to carry something black with you to protect you from harm and negativity when traveling or when going about your usual daily activities outside your home.

People who like black may be conventional, conservative and serious, or they may think of themselves as being sophisticated or very dignified.

The color black is often seen as a color of sophistication, as in 'the little black dress', or 'the black tie event'.

Affluent and success orientated women often choose black as it can give an impression of elegance, sophistication and confidence.

Black is often associated with sexiness and seduction, as in the temptress in sexy black lingerie creating an air of mystery and intrigue. It can also imply submission to another (including a sexual partner), similar to the priest wearing black robes in submission to God.

Black is the end, but the end always implies a new beginning. When the light appears, black becomes white, the color of new beginnings.

Teenagers often have a psychological need to wear black during the stage of transition from the innocence of childhood to the sophistication of adulthood. It signifies the ending of one part of their life and the beginning of another, allowing them to hide from the world while they discover their own unique identity. It is important they go through this stage but a worry when it continues on into adult years if they continue to wear black to the exclusion of other colors.

Too much black can cause depression and mood swings and create a negative environment. Combined with white only, it can create an argumentative atmosphere.

It is best to use some color with black to lighten and brighten its energy.

The Color White

The meaning of the color white is purity,
innocence, wholeness and completion

White is color at its most complete and pure, the color of perfection. The color meaning of white is purity, innocence, wholeness and completion.

In color psychology white is the color of new beginnings, wiping the slate clean, so to speak. It is the blank canvas waiting to be written upon. While white isn't stimulating to the senses, it opens the way for the creation of anything the mind can conceive.

White contains an equal balance of all the colors of the spectrum, representing both the positive and negative aspects of all colors. Its basic feature is equality, implying fairness and impartiality, neutrality and independence. It is interesting to note that babies come into the world with a perfect balance of white, ready to imprint their lives with all the colors of the spectrum (hopefully!) from all their life experiences.

White is totally reflective, awakening openness, growth and creativity. You can't hide behind it as it amplifies everything in its way.

The color white is cleanliness personified, the ultimate in purity!! This is why it is traditionally worn by western brides, and the reason why doctors wear white jackets.

White is a color of protection and encouragement, offering a sense of peace and calm, comfort and hope, helping alleviate emotional upsets. It creates a sense of order and efficiency, a great help if you need to declutter your life.

White offers an inner cleansing and purifying of your thoughts, emotions and, ultimately, your spirit, refreshing and strengthening your entire energy system.

While there are very few negative connotations to white, particularly in western culture, too much white can be cold, isolating and empty. It implies a feeling of sterility, detachment and disinterest, providing little stimulation for the senses.

In other cultures it is traditionally related to death and mourning. In these cultures death usually means the end of one life and the beginning of another, moving forward to a new life, so the color psychology meaning of new beginnings still holds.

White may indicate the completion of a cycle in your life - you may find you have a desire for white clothing or white in your surroundings at a time when you are moving in a new direction in your life - for example, planning an overseas trip for the first time, or moving house after a long time in one place, or in seeking a new relationship or a new career direction.

Many people use white as a recall of their youth and innocence. It reminds them of a time when their lives were easier and less complicated.

White is used in many medical practices such as dental surgeries and doctors' rooms as an indication of cleanliness and efficiency; however it also can give the feeling of sterility and coldness of emotions and may lead patients to think the doctor or dentist won't relate to them on an emotional and personal level. It can be too clinical and sterile.

Too much white can cause feelings of isolation and emptiness; it can be too pristine and immaculate, making you feel as though you can't make a move for fear of upsetting it or creating a mess.


Personality Color White

While you may not exhibit all the character traits of a personality color white as listed here, if this is your favorite color you will find yourself somewhere in the description. You may also find you exhibit some of the negative traits, particularly when you are stressed.


If Your Favorite Color is White


Note: Rarely is this color a favorite color from childhood - white tends to become a favorite at a time when you are going through a transitional period in your life, preparing for new beginnings or seeking a new direction in one or more areas of your life. The following descriptions will apply to both those who love white and those going through a transitional time, although the latter may be a temporary display of the following qualities until the transitional period has passed. This transitional time may last for weeks, months or years.

  • Having a personality color white means you are neat and immaculate in your appearance, in the presentation of your home and in your car, almost to the point of being fanatical.
  • You have impeccable standards of cleanliness and hygiene and you expect others to adhere to your high standards.
  • You are far-sighted, with a positive and optimistic nature.
  • You are well-balanced, sensible, discreet and wise.
  • With a personality color white, you are cautious, practical and careful with money.
  • You think carefully before acting - you are definitely not prone to impulsive behavior.
  • You tend to have a great deal of self control.
  • You are confident, poised and self-assured when at your most positive, but can also be very choosy and fastidious when the mood strikes.
  • You can be very critical of yourself and others (in your need for perfection) - but you try to be fair and impartial as well.
  • You are self-sufficient and a loner - you don't want or need help from anyone. However, you may also experience times of loneliness because of this trait.
  • You may be wishing to create simplicity in your life - perhaps a wish to re-create your childhood, lost youth and happier times in your past life.
  • You can be quite sexually prudish with your need for self-control and perfection.
  • You hide your flaws from others to give an impression of perfection.
  • You may appear to be shy, but you do have strong beliefs about most things and love the opportunity to air those beliefs.
  • The challenge for you is to be open-minded and flexible and to communicate your needs and desires.




The Deepest Need of a Personality Color White


Your deepest need is to create simplicity in your life and to be independent and self-reliant so you do not need to depend on anyone else.





Positive and Negative Traits of the Color White

Positive keywords include: innocence, purity, cleanliness, equality, complete and whole, simplicity, immaculate and neat, self-sufficient, pristine and open, new beginnings.



Negative keywords include: sterile, stark, fastidious, empty, isolated, cautious, plain, distant, unimaginative, critical and boring.



The Color White Represents:

Innocence and purity: White is the beginning of everything, before anything is muddied or thinking is 'colored'.

New beginnings: White represents the clean slate, helping us through times of stress, and allowing us put the past behind us and preparing us to move on.

Equality and unity: White represents the positive as well as the negative aspects of all colors. It contains an equal balance of all the colors of the spectrum.




Effects of White:

Impartial: White suggests fairness and neutrality because of the balance and equality of all the colors contained within it.

Rescuer: White rescues us from the dark. It is the white knight, rescuing the damsel in distress.

Futuristic: Symbolizing a clean slate, we can envisage anything with white.

Efficient: White is clean and clinical, giving an impression of efficiency and organization.

If you dislike white you:
  • White is too sterile for you - you need more color in your life.
  • You are easy going and relaxed - not fussy and particular.
  • You are spontaneous and impulsive and white is too self controlled for you.
  • You need lots of interesting things going on in your life - the simple life is too boring for you.
  • You are not concerned with order and perfection in your own life - a little dust on the shelves is okay with you.
  • You take life as you find it and make the most of what you have.

 The color Grey ..

The color of detachment, indecision and compromise


The color gray is an unemotional color. It is detached, neutral, impartial and indecisive - the fence-sitter.

From a color psychology perspective, gray is the color of compromise - being neither black nor white, it is the transition between two non-colors. The closer gray gets to black, the more dramatic and mysterious it becomes. The closer it gets to silver or white, the more illuminating and lively it becomes.

Being both motionless and emotionless, gray is solid and stable, creating a sense of calm and composure, relief from a chaotic world.

The color gray is subdued, quiet and reserved. It does not stimulate, energize, rejuvenate or excite.

In the meaning of colors, gray is conservative, boring, drab and depressing on the one hand and elegant and formal on the other, yet never glamorous.

Gray conforms - it is conventional, dependable and practical. It is a color of maturity and responsibility, associated with the gray hair of old age. It will never be the centre of attention, the dynamic leader or the director - it is too safe and toned down.

It can stifle and depress energy but it is also the stable base from which the new and positive can come.

Gray is controlled. It has a steadying effect on other colors with which it comes into contact, toning down the stronger and brighter colors and illuminating the softer colors. Rarely is gray a perfect mix of black and white - it often has elements of other colors such as blue, green, pink, mauve or yellow within it which lift it and energize it.

Too much of the color gray creates sadness and depression and a tendency to loneliness and isolation. Add some color to change this.

Most people are indifferent to gray- it relates to the corporate worker in the gray suit - conservative, reliable, formal and independent and maybe boring.

Personality Color Gray

While you may not exhibit all the traits of a personality color gray as listed here, if this is your favorite color you will find yourself somewhere in the description. You may also find you exhibit some of the negative traits, particularly when you are stressed.


If Your Favorite Color is Gray


  • If this is your favorite color, you are neutral about life, often to the point of being indifferent.
  • If you love gray, you are trying to protect yourself from the chaotic outside world, even to the point of isolating yourself from others, leaving you with the feeling that you don't really fit in or belong anywhere.
  • As a personality color gray, it is important for you to maintain the status quo - you prefer a safe, secure and balanced existence and never desire much excitement. You will usually compromise in order to keep the balance and stability you so desperately seek.
  • You are practical and calm, do not like to attract attention and are simply seeking a contented life.
  • With gray as your favorite color, you are the middle of the road type, cool, conserved, composed and reliable. You tend to conform just to keep the peace.
  • Being a personality color gray, you are attracted to this neutral, non-emotional color as it controls and contains your energy - you just don't show excitement or enthusiasm about anything much in your life.
  • You are a hard worker who just gets on with the job that has to be done - you tend to be committed and loyal to your work whatever it may be.
  • You often add a splash of color to your grey look, to show that you aren't all that dull.
  • You tend to be indecisive, lacking confidence - a fence-sitter who finds it difficult to make choices in most situations in your life.
  • When operating from a negative perspective of a personality color gray you will be restrained in your actions, often putting a pessimistic slant on things.
  • You like to be in control of your emotions and avoid experiencing emotional pain by shutting off from your emotions.
  • You may be feeling stressed and over burdened, and looking for a rest, a break from the stresses of your everyday life - gray will protect you.
  • You tend to make fair and balanced judgments, and may be a good critic, because of your emotional detachment.
  • You prefer to not get involved - you are quite independent and may be quite individual in your attitude, although you lack imagination and creativity - this may give you a narrow outlook and may prevent you being open to new ideas and opportunities - the opportunities are there, you just have to embrace them.
  • With a personality color gray you may be a self-sufficient, unemotional dedicated worker in your business life and a lonely indecisive person in your private life.




The Deepest Need of a Personality Color Gray


Your Deepest Need is to create balance in all areas of your life, to be respected for who you are and to find your place in the world with a deep feeling of belonging.


If you dislike gray:

  • You dislike neutrality, would rather be right or wrong, but never indifferent.
  • You are confident with your opinions and find decision making easy.
  • Routine bores you - you need a richer more fulfilling life.
  • You need more stimulation of the senses that color brings.
  • You may be the type of person who pursues one interest after another in your pursuit of happiness.

Detached: being non-emotional, gray can appear indifferent, uncaring, cold and aloof.

Dark gray is conventional and constrained. It is serious and solemn, inflexible and strict. It relates to self-denial and self-discipline.
