Re: Confused here..
Okay...so there's this big misconception out there that there's some universal correspondence chart out there that everything has to match.
The question is 1. Are you working in a specific cultural or systematic framework? If so, why are you asking if those sites are accurate? or 2. Do they make sense to you? Because if you're not working in an established framework, it's far more productive to go with what makes sense to you. So....if you associate blue with love and orange with money, use those. If the charts make sense to you, it's all that matters.

Colors have various uses in magic because the colors trigger different frequencies & mental associations.There’s no single meaning, only associations to the task. Color lists vary by which system is used & associations can be based on 5 elements, 7 chakras, 7 planetary vibrations, deities, seasons, and regional & cultural differences ... so candle color is flexible. Choose what makes sense to your task.
