There are many different meanings of color. Color could mean diversity or it could mean that something is about to change for example.
Colors can evoke emotions, symbolism, and cultural significance. They often have psychological effects, with warm colors like red and orange being energizing, and cool colors like blue and green being calming. Different cultures may associate colors with specific meanings or traditions.
Shades of blue, some shades of green can be considered cold or cool colors. There is no warmth to them and generally these colors (according to the 4 years of Interior Decorating I've taken) are used for rooms in a home that can be on the warm to hot side.
Shades of reds, oranges and bright colors are cheery, but, should only be used on the walls of large homes and there are several different shades of both colors.
Dark colors such as black, deep grays, etc., are gloomy and depressing if not used right and will pull a large in and lot a lot less roomy.
Pinks are a calming color and this has been proved by painting a holding tank for prisoners. The color pink actually calmed the prisoners down.
Pastel shades of yellows, soft Mochas, desert colors, etc., are soothing and calming to the person while still being cheery during the day.
This also applies to the colors people choose to dress in. A black cocktail dress looks classic, but there are times when black, for some people, is used to make them look mysterious and frightening such as some Gothic groups. It's a moody color. The other colors are actually chosen to suit the person's personality or eye color. Everyone has a favorite color or two.

Pink and yellow are complementary colors on the color wheel, meaning they are opposite each other and thus create a high contrast and vibrant color combination. This contrast creates visual interest and helps the colors to stand out when paired together. The warm tones of pink and yellow also tend to create a cheerful and energetic mood when used together.
The primary colors are blue, red, and yellow. These colors are considered fundamental because they cannot be created by mixing other colors together.
