The Mayan colors are taken from nature itself, and from what it gives us.
Red
It is the idea, a path that illuminates, its meaning is the sun, blood, fire, strength, it is red corn.
When we get up, as an anthropological attitude we always look to the east, at sunrise, our first behavior is to see the sun.
When you ask a Mayan what time it is: first he looks at the sun, then his watch and says what time it is.
Black
It is compared to black corn, it means darkness, death, bad ideas, the night, it also means rest.
It is to recover energy that is why it is hope, to recharge the batteries that have been used up during the day.
It gives hope that what you could not do today, you will finish tomorrow, it is the sense of continuity, not of end.
And in our body we can find it in moles, in the blackness of our eyes, in our hair.
One explanation is that the black candle runs out faster than the others, due to the paint and because it is a natural phenomenon that black attracts more heat and burns out faster.
White
Compared to white corn, it is purity, the color of life, color of semen, egg white, it is the seed, it is the air, breath of life, the bones, the whites of the eyes.
Yellow
It is Q’anil, maturity, it is the nucleus, the seed, wealth, disease, if the seed does not germinate, it is sterility.
Payment must be made to the Q’anil for there to be reproduction, we can find this present in the skin, in the muscles.
Green
The environment is found in plants, nature and that is why you have to ask permission for everything you do.
There are many values that we have lost and that is why the consequence is what we are suffering now.
Blue
It is the atmosphere and water, space, water.
