Why do specific sound frequencies are making us sad while others are making us happy?

Different chords signify different things.
Major chords have an uplifting tone, and sound as something beginning, rising, uplifting. Birth so to speak.
Minor chords have a depressing, “ending-like” sound. Like something is dying, ending, coming to a conclusion. Basically they signify death.
You can look at major chords as being spring, and minor as autumn. And usually, something ending makes us sad, i would say because of our own finite nature. Time is precious and unrepeatable , so when it runs out, you feel a sense of helplessness and sadness.
