令的 не до речі; не по сезону موجود نہیں hết mùa 不合时令的 season Season Color Analysis | Spring Summer Autumn Winter Color Therapy Discover sleep inducing colors.

Every season, is made of three subtypes, which classify the coloring of people who belong to the same season but have different colors of skin, eyes, and hair. We refer to the four seasons in our personal color palette, mainly because most of the colors in fact do recall the colors in that season. Each one of us belongs only to one season during the whole year and every season has all the colors. Color, defined through: value (how light or dark it appears) hue, how cool or warm it appears, and chroma, how bright or muted it appears. Through these three elements, were developed the four principal groups, palettes called: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. The persons that look good in the colors of one of the four groups are called with the same names of their season: in other words, a person which looks good with the colors of Winter is a Winter color palette. Season Color Analysis Hair Color Hair color is the result of pigmentation due to the presence of the chemicals of melanin. In general, the more melanin, the darker the hair color. The color of our hair varies from pale yellow to deep black. The ethnic distribution of colors has historically varied by geographic area.

For example, deep brown and black prevail in the Middle East, North Africa, and Mediterranean Europe, and even darker shades occur in East Asia, South Asia, as well as tropical Africa and Central America. Lighter brown is more common in central Europe, Yellow/Blond in northern Europe, and Reddish in the British Isles. Fair hair is characteristic of the peoples of Northern Europe, particularly Scandinavia (very pale hair is often referred to as Nordic blond.) Blond hair is genetically associated with paler eye-color (blue, green, and light brown) and pale (sometimes freckled) skin tone. It is also normal for hair to darken through childhood. Caucasian babies are generally born with the slightest wisp of fair hair, and then go on to grow hair of the color that they are genetically programmed to grow. Darkening can even occur relatively late in life (graying of hair is a separate issue, though). Strong sunlight also lightens hair of any pigmentation to varying degrees. Brunette in common usage refers to dark brown or black hair, especially dark brown hair. People disagree over whether black or light brown hair counts as brunette. For genetic reasons, a brunette will usually have darker-colored eyes and a relatively dark or olive complexion.

High levels of the dark pigment demeaning and lower levels of the pale pigment phaeomelanin characterize brown and black hair. It is thicker than fair hair but not as much as red hair. Strawberry blonde is a color combination of red and blonde and is an uncommon hair color. Hair Shades Blonde: Sandy Blonde, Dirty Blonde, Strawberry Blonde, Platinum Blonde, Flaxen Red Hair: Auburn, Red, Russet, Ginger, Cinnamon, Henna Gray (Grey): Silver, Salt and Pepper, White Season Color Analysis Skin Tone Complexion refers to the natural color, texture, and appearance of the skin, especially that of the face. The coloring of people is cool (undertones bluish pink) or warm (undertones golden yellow). The best effect for the skin tone, and also for hair and makeup, can be achieved using complementary colors in clothes, dyes, and makeup. What follows is only a simplified idea of the theory and some of the main colors. Freckles Freckles are small brownish spots of melanin on skin in people of fair complexion. Predisposition to freckles is genetic and is related to the presence of red hair.

The same process, which produces sun tanning, causes your freckles although the distribution of melanin is uneven, causing the freckling. As Freckles are predominantly found on the face, warm colors will be the most flattering for you. Your season is determined based on the undertone of your skin which is either warm or cool. Since you cannot see this undertone, a draping of fabric colors enable you to determine if you are warm or cool. Season Color Analysis Eye Color Blue Eyes Surprisingly blue eyes are a relatively rare eye color. Found mainly in people of northern European descent, and to a lesser extent, in people of Eastern Europe, Southern Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia. In Finland, there is the highest percentage of blue-eyed people, 90 per cent. Many Caucasian babies are born with blue eyes, though their eyes will later darken, or change color. Most infant's eye color is set within a couple of days to a couple of weeks, though some people's eye color will continue to change for a number of years. Although extremely rare, people of Black/African descent may have blue eyes, an example being Vanessa Williams.

Blue eye color is a recessive trait, and the gene must be present (though not necessarily apparent) in both parents for a child to be born with blue eyes. South Asians may also have blue eyes, but this is uncommon. Eyes without melanin appear blue due to selective scattering of light in the transparent iris; no blue pigment is involved. (Rayleigh scattering, the same phenomenon that causes the blue color of the sky). In the mid-20th century after the dawn of color films, blue eyes,were considered very desirable in those aspiring to be Hollywood actors and actresses. Brown Eyes This is the shade most common almost world wide, with shades from brown to nearly black. Light brown is also very common but to a lesser extent. Most of the original inhabitants of Africa, Asia, and the Americas have brown eyes. Brown eyes are also found in Europe, though within European populations they are not predominating to the same extent. In this population, brown eyes are genetically linked to brown hair. Season Color Analysis Green Eyes Green eyes are most often found in people of Celtic, Slavic, and Germanic descent. Green eyes may be confused with hazel eyes. Sometimes a person's eye color can change as that person ages.

Blue eyes can become green but green eyes cannot become blue. Gray Eyes Very light blue eyes may give the impression of being gray. Red Eyes The red-eye effect commonly appears in photographs, especially in those with light eyes. Irises entirely lacking in the pigment melanin appear red, though not in humans, human albinos have blue eyes. This trait is characteristic of albinism. Under certain lighting conditions, humans with albinism the iris and/or pupil will appear bright red to violet in color, this is due to the translucency of their eyes and the light reflecting off their retina. Hazel Eyes Hazel usually used to describe eyes that contain elements of both green eyes and brown eyes. Some hazel-eyed people have irises, which transition from green at the edges to a light or darker brown near the center. Season Color Analysis Finding Your Color Palette This is a simple way to find your color palette. Items you will need: A large mirror, large enough that you can see from your chest or neck area up. Scarves or folds of fabric in an assortment of colors. Stand near an open window, door, or outside as long as you are not facing direct sunlight.

Wrap the scarves or fabric so that your neck line and upper chest are are covered. Close your eyes and then open, what was noticed first, your face or the color? If it was your face you have a good color choice. If it was the color you saw first it is not one for you. You will know the right color, it will stay in the background and your face will be noticed before the color. Test your colors using opposite seasons, Navy against orange and brown, Pure white against a navy. By way of the wrong color, you find the right color. One simple rule, face first-not color. A word of caution here, The color may not be as flattering for your body as it was to you complexion. A large area of vivid or bright color will make a large body look larger than it actually is. The cut and the style of the garment are as important. The color that lifts the face might not work for a certain style of dress. Home sewers should be especially careful here due to the wide range of choices in a fabric store. Spring Season Color Analysis Season Color Analysis Spring Color Chart The French call it, Printemps. We recognize it as the season of fresh, clean, and tender new leaves.

You will illuminate the visual effect of this, light refreshing yourself and the world around you by what you wear. Changes between the red of the Winter and the red of the Summer are the value and the chroma. Every season has a red or a green or a blue; but the red of the Winter enhances the person Winter and it's not as good on the person Spring. Black works best for Springs with dark hair and vivid skin. Spring has medium and light colors, and some vivid colors, and it is the season, which looks best with corals and salmons. Eye Colors Sky Tellers - The Myths, the Magic, and the Mysteries of the Universe About Constellations What's a constellation? A constellation is a group of stars that appears to form a pattern or picture like Orion the Great Hunter, Leo the Lion, or Taurus the Bull. Constellations are easily recognizable patterns that help people orient themselves using the night sky. There are 88 “official” constellations. Are the stars in a constellation near each other? Not necessarily. Each constellation is a collection of stars that are distributed in space in three dimensions – the stars are all different distances from Earth.

The stars in a constellation appear to be in the same plane because we are viewing them from very, very, far away. Stars vary greatly in size, distance from Earth, and temperature. Dimmer stars may be smaller, farther away, or cooler than brighter stars. By the same token, the brightest stars are not necessarily the closest. Of the stars in Cygnus, the swan, the faintest star is the closest and the brightest star is the farthest! How are constellations named? Most of the constellation names we know came from the ancient Middle Eastern, Greek, and Roman cultures. They identified clusters of stars as gods, goddesses, animals, and objects of their stories. It is important to understand that these were not the only cultures populating the night sky with characters important to their lives. Cultures all over the world and throughout time — Native American, Asian, and African — have made pictures with those same stars. In some cases the constellations may have had ceremonial or religious significance. In other cases, the star groupings helped to mark the passage of time between planting and harvesting.

There are 48 “ancient” constellations and they are the brightest groupings of stars – those observed easily by the unaided eye. There actually are 50 “ancient” constellations; astronomers divided one of the constellations (Argo) into 3 parts. “Modern” constellations — like the Peacock, Telescope, and Giraffe — were identified by later astronomers of the 1500s, 1600s, and 1700s who used telescopes and who were able to observe the night sky in the southern hemisphere. These scientists “connected” the dimmer stars between the ancient constellations. There are 38 modern constellations. In 1930 the International Astronomical Union officially listed 88 modern and ancient constellations (one of the ancient constellations was divided into 3 parts) and drew a boundary around each. The boundary edges meet, dividing the imaginary sphere — the celestial sphere — surrounding Earth into 88 pieces. Astronomers consider any star within a constellation boundary to be part of that constellation, even if it is not part of the actual picture.

Are all stars part of a constellation? No, there are billions of stars, and only a fraction of them make up the shapes of our constellations — these are the stars that are easily seen with the unaided eye. Ancient observers connected these stars into the star pictures. All stars, however, fall within the boundaries of one of the 88 constellation regions. As astronomers studied the night sky with modern telescopes, they were able to discern stars in the dark spaces around the constellations — stars that were not part of the original star pictures. You can see some of these stars by observing the sky on a dark night. If you look at the sky with binoculars, you will see even more stars. If you have a telescope, you will see even more! All the stars you see belong to one special group of stars — the stars in our own galaxy, the Milky Way. How are stars and other objects in the sky named and located? Hundreds of the brightest stars, those visible with the unaided eye, were given names in ancient times. These include Eltanin of Draco, the Dragon, and Vega in Lyra, the Lyre. Many of these stars have multiple names, having been observed by different cultures.

Today stars are named by their coordinates on the celestial sphere. This is an imaginary sphere surrounding Earth. Earth’s north and south poles can be extended in space to this sphere, marking the north and south celestial poles, the poles around which the sphere spins. Polaris marks the intersection of the extended north pole and the sphere. Earth’s equator, extended into space, intersects the sphere at the celestial equator, dividing it into northern and southern hemispheres. All stars and objects in space, such as constellations, can be mapped relative to the poles and equator of the celestial sphere. Their position north or south of the celestial equator — essentially their latitude — is called “declination.” Their position east or west essentially is their longitude, or right ascension, measured in hours, minutes, and seconds. On Earth, we measure our longitude east or west from Greenwich, England; right ascension on the celestial sphere is measured from the intersection of the ecliptic (plane of Earth’s orbit) and the celestial equator. There are numerous catalogs of stars, each with a different scheme for annotating position; this means that each star has even more names!

One of the most famous catalogs from the 1800s, the Bonn Survey, divides the sky into 1°-wide bands of declination and numbers the stars from west to east using right ascension. In the Bonn Survey ("Bonner Durchmusterung"), Vega is "BD+38° 3238” — the 3238th star in the band between 38° and 39° north. Another catalog, the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) catalog, integrated 10 catalogs to include the positions of over 250,000 stars. Vega is SAO 067174 in this catalog. The Hubble Space Telescope has allowed astronomers to see even more stars! The Hubble Space Telescope Guide Star Catalogue currently lists the coordinates of over 19 million bright objects — 15 million of which are classified as stars! Illustration of the components of the celestial sphere. Why Do Most Stars and Constellations Move? The stars are distant objects. Their distances vary, but they are all very far away.

Excluding our Sun, the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is more than 4 light years away. As Earth spins on its axis, we, as Earth-bound observers, spin past this background of distant stars. As Earth spins, the stars appear to move across our night sky from east to west, for the same reason that our Sun appears to “rise” in the east and “set” in the west. Stars close to the celestial poles, the imaginary points where Earth’s north and south axes point in space, have a very small circle of spin. So if you find Polaris, Earth’s north “pole star,” you will observe it move very, very, very little in the night sky. The farther from Polaris, the wider the circle the stars trace. Stars that make a full circle around a celestial pole, like those in the Big and Little Dippers in the northern hemisphere, are called “circumpolar stars.” They stay in the night sky and do not set. At the equator, there are no circumpolar stars because the celestial poles are located at the horizon. All stars observed at the equator rise in the east and set in the west. Why Do We See Different Constellations During the Year?

If observed through the year, the constellations shift gradually to the west. This is caused by Earth’s orbit around our Sun. In the summer, viewers are looking in a different direction in space at night than they are during the winter. What is the Zodiac? Earth orbits our Sun once each year. Viewed from Earth, our Sun appears to trace a circular path. This path defines a plane called the plane of the ecliptic (or just the ecliptic). The zodiac is the group (or “belt”) of constellations that fall along the plane of the ecliptic. It is through these constellations that our Sun appears to “pass” during the year. While there are 12 astrological constellations of the zodiac, there are 13 astronomical zodiac constellations: Capricornus, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpius, Sagittarius, and Ophiuchus. The annual cycle of the zodiac was used by ancient cultures to determine the time of year. Illustration of the “zodiac band” with a few of the constellations depicting the objects they represent.

Most of the planets (except Pluto) also have orbits that are very close to the ecliptic plane defined by Earth’s motion (within about 8 degrees above or below). If you include all the constellations encompassed by this broadened definition of the ecliptic plane, you have 21 to 24 constellations of the zodiac! Why Don’t the Constellations Line Up with the Astrological Dates? The astrological signs were identified and connected to the calendar about 2500 years ago. However, since that time, the timing of Earth’s seasons has shifted. This is partly due to the fact that Earth wobbles a little like a top, making its axes point in different directions at different times. This is a predictable cycle of change over a period of about 23,000 years. Today the northern hemisphere winter solstice occurs during aphelion, when Earth is farthest from the Sun; about 6000 years ago, the spring equinox occurred during aphelion. Through time, then, the seasons have shifted with respect to the background of the zodiac constellations.

Five thousand years ago, our Sun passed through Taurus during the spring equinox; today it is in Pisces at the start of spring. So if you ever wonder why your horoscope may be off a bit … perhaps by several thousand years … this shift may be the reason! An Interesting Tidbit The Big Dipper is not a constellation! It is part of Ursa Major, the Greater Bear. The Big Dipper is an asterism, a recognized, but not official, grouping of stars. Some asterisms fall within a single constellation, others cross constellations. SkyTellers Topics
