Little Known Masonic Regalia And Its Color Meanings

By Mattie Knight


Long ago, people ranked themselves according to their economic status. It has even affected the way they deal with things. Back to the old times where monarchy is the primary way of doing things, they had a special way of determining the status of each other. Their unique style of knowing it can be through the clothes they wore.

There are many to choose from. But, the most distinctive is the masonic regalia. This is what the royal family wore. It signifies their family status and standing in the society. In connection with that, the way they dress themselves became the main symbolism of their identity as a whole. And, what is amazing is that each color they wore has a meaning. Find out more in as follows.

White. This is the color of clarity. It is why it has also been considered as symbolism of purity and innocence. It is the common one that people used to emphasize greatness and goodness at the same time. For example, the way Daniel described in the bible with his encounter with God, in an image of an old man wearing white. There are other examples in such to symbolize goodness about a person.

Blue. Take a look at the blue ocean, especially when its calm. That alone became one of the basis of how the meaning of wearing a blue regalia came to be, which means prudence, eternity and immortality. This makes it why the prominent individuals in the monarch hierarchy wear this to send their sincere message regarding their deep love and commitment to lead.

Purple. Years have passed, the meaning of this has not changed. This remained a symbol for richness, making royal families endlessly use this as symbolism of their abundance. And, the use of this did not just exist with the clothing that royals use, but also in churches, especially in times of Lent and Advent to emphasize the Lordship of God over the lives of believers.

Red. This can sometimes be referred to as crimson, the tint of fire. You know very well that where there is fire, there is heat. And, with the characteristics of heat, you can easily notice how intense it is when it reached your boundaries. Such makes it why it became the color of passion, devotion and self denial. Thus, the perfect defining love like how royals loved their homeland.

Green. It has been beyond our reach that this tint stayed within our boundaries. This became the main color that has enveloped the earth, making it full of life. Thus, this became one of the main source why people tend to consider this as a symbol for life. And, some like ancient Egyptians even regarded it as the one intended to give hope to people.

Black. Many hated this. It is because of the common generalization that this color symbolizes death, sorrow and darkness. However, to our little knowledge, there is more to black than just that. It also means elegance. Such began when prominent families chose to use as emphasis on formality, depicting more elegance than any other hues.

Furthermore, these are a few things that regalia shades could mean. Knowing these things could help you out in understanding this even more. So, what are you waiting for. Share this interesting information with the people you know including your friends. Tell them about this.
