I Read Some Scientific Research About How It's Different Between Cultures But I Don't Feel Like I Know Enough On Why - Tumblr Posts

Hey, hey, I have a question, DC lore knowers

Do you have any canon material/headcanons about color associations in Martian culture? If not, would you like to treat this post as a long discussion to figure it out?

I got a sudden urge to know it and I don't feel like I know enough about the Martian culture in general to make it up. Plus, I have only my European perspective to aid me and I know it varies between cultures on Earth alone so it probably be better if more people worked on it.

But, you know. I think this topic has potential to be fascinating.

Alright, tried to think off something, here are my ideas. Please share your thoughts on it, yell if 'm spewing utter bullshiit

rusty red is associated with death, because it's the color of the inhabitable surface. Same thing with yellowish-browns and more pinkish hues of red, because these are colors of Martian sky. Btw, sunrises and sunsets on Mars are blue, aparently

saturated red is the color of elegance and 'looks high-tech' because of Red Martians and bioships

saturated yellow is color of sacred stuff and neutrality, because of apolitical Yellow Martian priests and priestesses

Dark, cool colors are considered safe, calming

Warm, light colors are the sign of danger

Green is considered "normal"/bland

There is something actually artsy and lowkey magical about blueish-purples (see the sacred river and the crystal cave, I don't remember its name)

There are probably very few positive associations with white, probably. Sun on Mars appears just white, and its obviously visible only from the inhabitable surface. Idk, maybe I'm pushing this angle too hard

That's all I've got for a moment, please help me. I'm basing most of it on really life Mars or Young Justice Cartoon version (I know it from wiki and random clips on YouTube, I haven't seen this season where it's discussed more in depht yet)
