Orange
In the personality spectrums system, orange is the color for individuals pre>who need to test themir own physical limitations against the enviornment. Fearless, powerful, heedless of their own personal safety, they shake their fists in the face of God. The challenge for Oranges is to deal with our increasingly complez society. We are faced not so much with physical survival problems as with complicated moral and ethical questions. We are coping iwth the quality of life as opposed to simple survival.
An Orange prefers a challenge requiring physical courage. But out society forces us to tackle the frontier of the inner self, which requires spiritual courage. This question arises: Does an Orange have the ability to distinguish between these two kinds of courage -- the courage required to face physical danger and risk as opposed to the courage required to come to terms with the inner self?
The lesson that is presented over and over again to an Orangeis that there are physical limits and boundaries to human capabilities. Instead of constantly pushing to find out what those physical boundaries are, Oranges must learn to use the same energy to discover the inner dimentions of the self. The challenge for an Orange is to live long enough for age and experience to begin to allow the more obscure image of moral courage to come to the forefront of their consciousness.
