In ancient times to feudal age this colour was only allowed to be used among noble people. Therefore this colour was called forbidden colour. This colur made us feel awe.
This colour is made by mixing blue -male colur -reason and red -female colour -passion, so this colour connotes transvestism, inexplicable feeling, ambiguity, confusion, and neutrality.
The name of the river in my home town Kokura is the River Purple, because the surface of the river beautifully reflects a lot of plasma from the sunshine, but after a factory was constructed upper the river and flowed untransact water the colour of the river turned to the very purple, so people had long believed the river was named after the colour of the contaminated water.
In Auschwitz concentration camp this colour was used to show people differ neither from their national origin nor their sexual preference. Indeed they were constitued by various people but with the same faith. This sect was the only one that was severely persecuted under Nazis regime. For Nazis these people might have been as awesome as the colour they made worn.
The colour purple often makes us anxious, unstable, mystic, gnostic, anyway it is hard to grasp the atmosphere this colour gives off.
