Like, I think maybe it means more than just one thing. Considering there are parts where it implies how Frisk and Chara are 2 sides of the same coin, I think there's a lot more symbolism involved with the red soul. I'm a little fond of the headcanon that SOULs have a good and a bad trait. Someone (not on this website) suggested that the yellow SOUL could either be Justice and Vengeance or Justice and Retribution.. but I think it'd be more fitting if the two traits weren't postive and negative. Polar opposites could work better. I think Fate and Destiny would work just fine; Fate as in unchanging and forced, while Destiny is selfmade. It could also be Fate and Volition, since it would well represent that the human decides the fate of the Underground, but Destiny would work well as a single, overall trait (as SOULs in Undertale seem to have).

Fate and Destiny would work better for Frisk and Chara, since they have the same SOUL color, but chose to handle their abilities differently. Fate could be for Chara (at least, a still-alive Chara), and Destiny could be for Frisk.

Now I'm actually kind of curious if Chara would take Frisk's dominant trait when they followed their SOUL or return to their own, but that's a hard question to answer.
