Hi Enki,
All colours but here are some festive associations with just a few:
Green, the colour of the fir tree, symbol of new life, hope, youth and nature.
Reds/warm yellows/oranges: warm colours symbol of passion, love, harmony, generosity and warmth (red berries, roaring fires, twinkling fairy lights of different colours)
White, symbol of light, purity, joy and glory. Christmas angels, Santa’s beard, snow.
Gold, radiance, twinkling stars, tinsel, candles.
Lola and I hope you have a colourful and joyful Christmas

The true color of Christmas? Perhaps the question is like asking what color is the ocean? On a clear day the sky is blue and the ocean appears blue; on a cloudy grey day, the seas are grey.
Christmas's color is the reflection of what we bring to it. Christmas can be the bright and bold colors of joy and delight in celebration and fellowship. It can also be the somber greys of grieving the loss of loved ones no longer with us around the tree. It is the blues of sadness with words unspoken, and the intense oranges of stress and tension--will it all turn out right?
The true color of Christmas is what we bring to it reflected back to us, revealing who we truly are and calling us to be who we are meant to be.

A true Christmas is Golden. In the Church we use liturgical colours, and White, Gold, or Silver is the usual for Christmas, but that includes vestments that are called "Best" whatever colour they are. Since my seminary serves the world wide church, we were told that customs in the orient differ, and white or yellow would denote death, so Red would be used, a happy colour signifying warmth and life, and Purple, a penitential colour in the Western Church in other parts of the world signifies royalty, always proper for the Feast of the King of Kings. The true colour of Christmas is the colour men find shining in their hearts in the darkest night.

I would have to say that it depends on how People perceive it. It might be a blue Christmas to some, on account of what they are experiencing in their Lives, or it might be a happy occasion to others, if they are Happy how things are going with their Lives. so, I would have to say that it is all colors depend on what it's going in your life. For me it would be somewhat on the blue side and the Red, we have been having some Health issues at my Home concerning My Husband, he gets sick, of something gets well and he gets sick again, so, we are Hoping to God, He will help him with his Health Problems. Have a Very Merry Christmas to you, in Company of your family, and keep on sending your Questions.

christmas should not be symbolized by a color since it hides a valuable meaning beyond the colors it reflects.

Multi-Colored Christmas excluding no colors of whatever shade
They all come together in the spirit of one colored nature...though i guess a lot of people who don't believe in THE WHOLE REASON FOR THE HOLIDAY still celebrate christmas

There is not much blue in my Christmas, though the sky is blue most of the time.
White because of snow and the purity of Jesus.
Red for his blood that he shed for us.
Green for everlasting life which is the color of the evergreen which is always green.
Gold to represent Jesus being the King of our souls and His precious life.
Silver to represent bells to ring in the joyous news of His birth.

Rainbow.
It all started with God's promise:
"I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth." - Genesis 9:13 Christmas, the birth of Jesus, is the covenant fulfilled.
Merry Christmas, enki!!

This time of year started out as a Pagan celebration of the winter solstice. Then it became Christian. Now it is the celebration of Consumerism. Since it is about buying "shiny things", let's call the color of Christmas "SHINY".
