Allow me to take a brief look at what is going on these days in the world of live tournament poker.
I remember, I think, recently, I was suggesting here that you can 'discern' certain potential psychological states of gamblers from the colors in the clothing that they wear.
And I personally believe that to be a true factor that reflects some underlying states-of-mind in people who are doing, well, anything really, not just gambling.
The current vogue among tournament poker players is jackets with poker industry logos on the shoulders, caps, maybe different kinds of hats, dark glasses sometimes, sneakers. Although I haven't seen anyone wearing velvet sneakers yet...

Now, what do you think the theory behind this 'symbolism' is?
There are University courses in psychology which go into people's responses to color: red implies 'action,' or 'danger,' green means 'go,' or 'fresh/growth,' white means you have to spend a lot of time with a cleaning cloth...
In the Vedic system, colors have definite causes stemming from the release of energy from a higher state dropping down to a lower state - which is pretty much what modern electronics also says.
However in the ancient Vedic teachings, the higher mind equates to intense white, and the immediate lower purple/indigo equates to the so-called 'third eye,' then blue is the throat area, green the heart, just below that is the golden-yellow navel, and beneath that are the red energy circles.
A gambler wearing purple or mauve or violet (who has subconsciously selected that color feature) might be someone who has been doing a lot of calculating and is stepping down from that phase after their thinking has reached a temporary conclusion. This is a person who could be a successful risk-taker on course, or at a poker table.
