The binary nature of orange makes it as energetic and powerful as red and as happy and friendly as yellow. In general, people associate orange with many positive things in life.

Like red, orange is intensely visible and used for spacesuits and traffic cones to draw attention and give a warning. Some cultures attribute orange to wealth, such as the Netherlands, which uses orange as a nod to the Dutch Royal Family^.[1]

In certain Asian religious traditions, such as Buddhism, monks and spiritual leaders don orange-colored robes due to the historical availability of this dye. The color orange is also associated with the highest state of enlightenment in the beliefs of Buddhists.^[2]
