Colors
This page lists of the various symbols in the Colors group.
We all see colors in our everyday lives, no matter where we live or where we look. While certain colors are often associated specific things, the colors themselves- including individual shades- typically have a wealth of symbolism attached to them that most people may not be aware of.
That symbolism varies widely from culture to culture, but there are some common threads that run through most applications of a color or shade.
