· Prestige and power are important to you.
· You are independent, strong-willed and determined and like to be in control of yourself and situations.
· As a lover of black you may be conservative and conventional - black is restricting and contained. With black as your personality colour, you may be too serious for your own good - bring some colour into your life to lighten you up - life should be fun.
· You may appear intimidating to even your closest colleagues and friends, with an authoritarian, demanding and dictatorial attitude.
· As a personality colour black, you are non-emotional and give the appearance of a dignified and sophisticated person who is in total control - this is often a front as you may feel quite insecure in the company of sophisticated and cultured VIP's and upper class people.
· You like to keep people at a distance, guarding your emotions and creating an impenetrable barrier between yourself and others.
· You may wish to create an aura of mystery and intrigue, as in the sexy black negligee.
· You may be going through a stage of self-denial, not allowing pleasure and joy into your life.
· You hold things inside and are not good at sharing yourself with others, possibly out of fear.
· You are methodical in your work, making sure everything is completed as required, down to the last detail. It may be a colour of comfort to you, allowing you to retreat and hide from the real world.
· You may be a teenager or young adult hiding behind black while searching for your own identity or your own true colours.
· You may be rebelling against society or your family.
· You may have lost sight of your direction in life and are going through a very negative phase.
· You may be suppressing your own desires and aspirations.
· You may be retreating behind black during a difficult time in your life such as a serious illness or a period of grief - black protects, allowing for a deep inner healing without interference from others.
