A portrait of Pitta

In Ayurvedic Science, a Dosha is the inherent intelligence of the body that decides the innermost nature of every individual. It is the special blend of qualities that makes each of us unique. The 3 Doshas are: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Each individual constitutes a balance of these 3 energies.

Ayurveda equates Pitta's beauty to fire

The heat of fire is penetrating and stimulating, always dehydrating and sometimes scorching. Once you've stared into the fiery gaze of Pitta you cannot forget her beauty. Cool green and blues balance Pitta’s intensity and pearls, moonstone, and silver bring out the sparkle in her eyes. When Pitta is happy, no one is warmer or more delightful. Pushed to her extremes, Pitta’s mood turns angry and argumentative. Pitta has to cool down herself with a rest from activity, a change of scenery, the scent of Sandalwood, meditation, and a moonlight stroll.

In Ayurvedic Science, Pitta represents the Fire Element. A Pitta person’s eyes command attention with their powerful intensity and one cannot miss the fire element in them. A Pitta personality also tends to be passionate and romantic; one that exudes the energy of love and positivity. Cooling fragrances such as sensuous florals and/or lush, woody accords are Pitta’s perfect match.
