About Oracolor
Twelve years ago, I taught myself how to chant Torah through color-coded cantillation. Seeing the words in color made the sounds easier to retain — and opened new layers of meaning.
There are moments when everything becomes clear. For me, that happened on a hike in 2020, when the vision of the Oracolor Wheel emerged. Since then, I’ve shared it as a guide for clarity, balance, and renewed energy.
Oracolor infuses 48 colors with specific meanings, offering a simple guide for living with more vibrancy and depth. Rooted in Torah wisdom, Oracolor invites alignment of mind, body, and heart, awakening the light within. Each color carries distinct energy you can draw on whenever you need support.
“Greater is learning Torah than the priesthood and than royalty, for royalty is acquired by 30 steps, and the priesthood by 24, but the Torah by 48 ways.” —
Pirkei Avot 6:6
About Debbie
Debbie Plawner is a social science researcher, strategic consultant, and lifelong student of wellness, color and Torah.
As an art minor in college, Debbie’s thesis project explored the impact of color on viewers’ perceptions. She painted three identical portaits in monochromatic color schemes and then asked viewers to describe the emotions conveyed and evoked by each piece. Her thesis -- that color has a powerful influence on our perceptions proved correct, and invaluable for her career.
Debbie went on to become an expert market researcher, conducting global studies for high tech giants, top universities and non-profits. Through her work, art and community projects, Debbie uses color to simplify and clarify complex concepts and render them accessible to any audience. She combines her extensive knowledge of Judaism and color theory to help us see beneath the
surface and discover the profound beauty within ourselves and our world.
