Blue, being the colour of the sky and the ocean in fine weather, is a calming, tranquil and soothing colour. "Blue skies" has come to mean that all is well.

In the animal kingdom, there are not many blue animals, although there are numerous birds that have blue feathers. The most vibrant blues are usually reserved for the male birds, so that they can attract the attention of females. Interestingly, in the animal world bright blue can also mean danger - for example the blue ringed octopus is highly poisonous.  Despite this association, blue is generally regarded as a safe and reassuring colour.
