Nice first posting of yours - and hopefully not the last. :)
Though I have to admit, I don't believe much in that colorgenics-thingie. I don't believe there actually is a significant relation between personal traits and choice of colour. In reality, the text is written in a style similar to the so-called predictions and forecasts by Nostradamus: Simply write ambiguous sentences with blurred meanings and wishy-washy terms. When you read this text with a particular person in mind, you will interpret the text to mean exactly what applies to that person, while in reality, it can just as well apply to almost anyone else. Obviously it works best with persons you know well, on top of all yourself.
Conclusion: The scary thing about it is not that it is incredibly accurate, but rather that so many people fall for it. :-P
