The metaphysical system of angel colors is based on seven different light rays, which loosely correspond to sunlight or a rainbow’s colors: blue, yellow, pink, white, green, red, and purple.

Why seven colors? Since the Bible describes seven angels who stand before God in Revelation, chapter 8; the philosophic system of spiritual evolution features seven planes of spiritual existence; the chakra system of energy within the human body has seven levels; and the rainbow has seven rays, people decided to develop a system of identifying angels based on seven different colors.

Different Frequencies, or Just Symbols?

Some people believe that the light waves for the seven angel colors vibrate at different electromagnetic energy frequencies in the universe, attracting the angels that have similar kinds of energy. Others believe that the colors are just fun ways of symbolizing the different types of missions that God sends angels on to help people.
