>>Color of Mercury
Mercury color- the first planet in the solar system. Find out the real color of the surface, the influence of the atmospheric layer and composition, comparison with other planets.
Compared to others solar planets, then in front of us is literally bare rock. It has a thin atmospheric layer, but all earthly devices are buried in gray stone. Mercury color arises from a molten planetary surface that cooled and solidified billions of years ago.
Mercury's surface color
To understand what color Mercury is, it is important to remember that the surface is not subject to tectonic activity or erosion. Since its solidification, it has changed only due to meteorite impacts. In the past, some deep basins filled with hot magma. Scientists are convinced that there are no active volcanoes on the planet, but an accidental release of lava or gas is possible.
Above is the best photo showing the true color of the planet Mercury. This is exactly what you will see on the passenger spaceship. A huge dark gray block with crater formations. The color is usually completely gray, but faint spots are visible in some places. One of the trenches is shaped like a spider.
The color of the planet is very similar to the Earth's satellite, the Moon. But when comparing images, you can quickly find the Moon with its seas created by lava flows in the past. To describe the color of Mercury more precisely, it is liquid silver at room temperature.
According to Jyotish, each planet has its own color associated with its qualities. Knowing which colors correspond to a particular planet, as well as the days of the week and directions can be a powerful support for you in your daily life. After all, colors influence our subconscious at a very deep level.

How can you use this knowledge?
1) Since the days of the week belong to the planets, it is favorable to wear clothes of the corresponding color of the planet on certain days. This simple practice will help balance the influence of planets on your life and develop certain areas.
2) If any planet is weak in your horoscope and you want to strengthen it, wearing clothes in the color of that planet will be a good upaya for that. You can also surround yourself with this color at home, in the office, wherever you go.
3) Since each planet is the ruler of a certain direction, it is recommended to organize your home space in such a way that each direction contains at least some elements of the corresponding color scheme. So, for example, adding more green to the north side of your home can greatly improve your communication skills and increase the flow of abundance.
Space has always attracted us with its mystery and uncertainty. For many centuries, people have tried to unravel its mysteries. Today, with the development of the space industry, the study of the solar system and distant galaxies has reached a completely different level. Of course, much remains unknown and hidden from our understanding, but there is still much to come.
In this article we will look at one of the planets of the solar system - Mercury. You will learn a lot of interesting things about this celestial body: how long is the day and year here, does it have satellites and rings, and much more.
Which planet is from the Sun?
Mercury is the smallest planet in the solar system. Until 2006, Pluto held this title. But at the congress of the IAU General Assembly, which took place on August 24, it was decided to deprive it of the status of a major planet.
The distance from Mercury to the Sun is 57,900,000 km. Unlike other planets, it is closest to the star. Then it is followed by Venus, Earth and Mars, and then come the celestial giants: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. So, Mercury is the planet of the solar system, which is located first from the Sun.
Celestial object color
Images taken from space satellites and ground-based telescopes have made it possible to accurately determine what color Mercury is. The entire surface of the planet is covered with gray rocks, which arose as a result of the solidification of molten lava. The cooling of magma and the formation of rocks occurred billions of years ago. Mercury is now a planet made entirely of bare rock. According to scientists, for several million years there have been no signs of activity of erosion and tectonic processes. The change in the landscape of the planet occurs only due to the fall of meteorites, which leave behind grooves on the surface of Mercury.
Geologists who studied the images claim that at the moment not a single active volcano has been recorded on the site. What color Mercury could have been if it had been colored by flows of hot magma, one can only guess. But today it appears to us as a faceless gray planet.
Landscape studies
Thanks to the development of the space industry, people have the opportunity to better understand our universe, including information about the planets of the solar system. Consider Mercury:
- A day on the planet lasts approximately 59 Earth days. This is exactly how long it takes Mercury to make one revolution around its axis.
- The planet makes a circle around the Sun in almost 88 Earth days. This is exactly how long a year lasts here.
- Temperature fluctuations are very significant. At night, the surface of the planet cools to -183 degrees Celsius, and during the day the Sun heats Mercury to +430 degrees. The thing is that the planet cannot retain heat.
- Depending on how far Mercury is from the Sun, the composition of its exosphere (a type of atmosphere) changes. Scientists have found that it contains sodium, calcium and magnesium. The concentration of these substances changes with approach and distance from the star.
- Although Mercury is quite difficult to find in the sky, our ancestors knew of its existence thousands of years ago.
- There are only two planets in the Solar System that do not have natural satellites or rings. These include Venus and Mercury.
- This planet has the largest reserves of sulfur. Water ice and organic matter have also been discovered on Mercury.
Color image from the MESSENGER spacecraft
Unlike all the other planets in the solar system, there is nothing on Mercury except rocks. It has a very thin atmosphere, and ground and space observations show only the gray surface of the planet.
Mercury gray
It was created as a result of the cooling of the molten surface; this happened many billions of years ago, immediately after the formation of the Solar System.
There are no active large-scale tectonic processes or erosion on the planet, so its surface remains unchanged for billions of years, with the exception of occasional meteorite falls.
In the past, when the planet was still geologically active, some basins were filled with magma that flowed from its depths. Geologists are confident that there are no more active volcanoes on the planet, although local tectonic activity still remains. Fresh lava flows will appear as bright spots on the surface.
The photograph accompanying this article is one of the best full-color images of Mercury.
When you look at a picture of both objects, it is very difficult to tell them apart. 
Unlike the Moon, it does not have the dark areas or "seas" that were created on the Moon by lava flows, but its color is still similar to the Moon's.

Primitive peoples identified color with natural forces. So, red symbolized fire, orange and gold represented the Sun, green - spring foliage and the beginning of a new life, blue - the sky and sea expanses.
More enlightened peoples found a connection between color and the influence of planets. The ancient system of matching metals and stones is based on the same correspondence. Gold is the metal of the Sun and silver is the metal of the Moon due to the correspondence in color. Different colors were also attributed to other planets in ancient times. Red is Mars, green is Venus, purple or dark blue is Jupiter, black or brown is Saturn, changeable colors are Mercury. It is surprising that this information was subsequently confirmed by modern scientific research.
From an astronomical point of view, the color of a planet depends on the composition of the substances from which it is composed. That's why the planets solar system they look different in space.

Today no one will argue that the planets have their own spectral radiation, which is recorded by appropriate instruments.
You need to take into account the colors of the planets:
To harmonize personality and study the birth horoscope
Test yourself how you feel about the characteristic color of a certain planet. It has been noticed that a sharp rejection of a certain color indicates that the corresponding planet in the horoscope has inharmonious aspects. Consultation with an astrologer, as well as independent work over your horoscope will help you change your attitude towards this color and develop new, harmonious character traits. This is one of the ways to develop personality through color.
To properly tune in to planetary transits
At the time of birth, each person has its own astrological influences, which are almost never repeated. At the same time, we all experience the influence of transiting planets. They touch the strings of our individual horoscope, like the bow of a violin. Depending on the aspects of the horoscope, harmonious or inharmonious music sounds. Studying the color vibrations of transiting planets helps us understand each other better.
On the eve of your birthday, it is also important to observe the color of the Sun in your zodiac sign. This is another color key to understanding your character.
You can enhance the manifestation of a certain planet or increase the likelihood of desired events if you use appropriate color accents in your environment, in the interior, in clothing. Especially if you notice that you don’t like your color, be careful of negative actions - try to quickly coordinate your feelings with your planetary color, or, as a last resort, discuss this with an astrologer.
