BLUE

The Meaning: Sky and water are the common associations made with the color. It expresses divinity. It is also a long-honored sign of fidelity, seen with flowers (i.e., forget-me-nots) and at weddings. The life-giving color was a staple of ancient Egypt, the dye lapis lazuli used to describe divinity and painted on graves of kings to proclaim as much. <<<
