When in reality, blue light is the higher energy.
bubal said:Perhaps because fire, bonfires are red-yellow. Embers are red. Hot metal is red. Volcanoes lava is red...
On the other hand. Ice is sometimes bluish. Cloudy days are of higher color temperature, this is more bluish. The sea is blue.
The heat is infrared and we are not sensitive to light (except for the eyes). Too much visible light on our skin are turned into infrared and this is why we notice its energy.

The main reason behind this association is due to cultural and societal influences. Red is often associated with fire, warmth, and passion, while blue is associated with water, ice, and calmness.
Yes, there is a scientific basis for this association. The color red is perceived as being closer to the electromagnetic spectrum of visible light, which is associated with heat and warmth. On the other hand, the color blue is perceived as being closer to the ultraviolet end of the spectrum, which is associated with coldness.
Yes, there are biological factors that contribute to this association. Our eyes have specialized cells called cones that are responsible for color vision. These cones are more sensitive to light in the red and blue parts of the spectrum, which could contribute to the association of these colors with hot and cold.
Yes, different cultures can have different associations with colors and temperature. For example, in some cultures, the color white is associated with coldness, while in others it is associated with purity and cleanliness. These cultural differences can affect how people perceive and associate colors with temperature.
No, this association may not be consistent across all individuals. Factors such as personal experiences, emotions, and individual perceptions can influence how a person associates colors with temperature. Additionally, color associations can also vary based on context and cultural background.
