According to the sacred pattern there are colour associations with the variant branches of learning known as the ways to ae wosca. There are many iterations in the world based upon this. The eldest, from First Place, aprox 70k years ago was know as aes sidhe, ae Druidae. This is ascribed as relatively recent language and prior to this People travelled all over the world in much earlier stages of development including to the Americas where First People happily continue with a variance of this language and association both unique to this region as dictated by the earth and also by the variance of culture. This also happened in many other places. We have regularly met and sought to recalibrate according to principle, but there is often both natural change in meaning as per the earth's difference and also change in established meaning according to the focus of the people and creations of nations, temples, tribes and families.
Here I shall return understanding to a modern concept which adheres to the natural and traditional meanings within the Eldest. However, it is fully accepted that many paths have arisen and may be followed, and that also these may be used in conjunction with inheritance.
This guide is intended for those who have continuance, and for those who wish to understand and follow the way.
Purple; Ae Wosca. Ae Primae. The Wisdom.
Associations: This is the Goddess, she who is All. This is the wisdom inherent in all of creation and is the divine; and so is manifest as intuition. She is the beginning and the end. She is love. She is feminine.
Representation: In ritual, spell, working and aske this is the truth of all and the attainment of wisdom.
Inheritance: This is how First People became and is a genetic difference referenced as an extra X chroma. So Xxx, or Xxy. Only those who are of this people type may denote this, and this may only be worn in fulfilment by those who are both this people type when they have attained wisdom. This is the inheritance of those who may be considered to be priestesses of the highest rank and High Priestess, those who are the Dark Mothers. These ranks may only be attained after becoming a mother by birth. For those sons who are of this people type such ae raiment becomes gilden, those who are the Bright Sons. Although there is interchangeability between terms those who are manifest are known as Daughters, and those who are partially manifest as Sisters. Males, Sons of the blood. Those who know their lineage of these lines may say they are of the blood, with reference to tribe, clan or family. This includes mixed people types where you are known to be of such also.
Science: This is a proven genetic difference in people type and is indicated by physical appearance and confirmed by genetic mapping. We are historically known as deities. We have an accelerated ability for evolution and high correspondence with genius; it is we who contributed sophisticated organol processes, extra nervous system and higher brain function to modern humans. Although there is confusion between expression due to combination with other people types, predominantly the cloning factor of Neanderthal, we are medically diagnosed as Delphic so named after the conditions of entry requirement to the Temple of Delphi. In nature we are akin to say Queen type. Like with the bees the Dark Mother who is ae wosca manifest is the extra large queen bee, supported by the other queen bees who are as Daughters. The male guard bees, who attend the queens are as Bright Sons. This pattern of the sexes echoes across many species.
Ranking: Highest is affirmed not only by people type but also becoming a mother and by personal attainment. I am the High Priestess. Levels as follows, with both inheritance and attainment one may become a Daughter; with blood and attainment a sister or magi, and with attainment in either of the sexes any may become a priest or priestess. With dedication to the way, the mysteries and a seeking of wosca, as all now contain some inheritance from us, any may name themselves witch.
Attainment: This must be proven.
Black: Ng, Anea, Mastery and security. The Warrior.
Associations: We secure love to enable culture to flourish into excellence. This is the Dark Path. The Way of Shadow, that which houses the light. This is where beginnings arise and that which is final and absolute. This is a Mystery. This is the possibility of All.
Representation: Mastery. Absolute. Dedication. Beginning. Primordial.
Inheritance: All have the potential to master the arts, or to enable security in culture. Those who bear dominant genetics such as dark skin, hair, eyes and more likely to have particular gifts and genius. All bear the mothers mtDNA.
Science: The above is confirmed by science. Further there is a differentiation and overlap in those who wish to follow this path. Some may be natural called by the gifts they bearn. Others are called to become warriors, those who work in security and policing, and may wear black uniforms when they are dedicated to Justice, or if they master the warriors art a black belt. This is also used for those who pursue or master shaping such as metallurgy. This black is combined with other colours; predominately green as most mecha pertain to everyday usage in life. Where of weapons, red. Where of transport, blue. Or further denotions in metallic which shall be noted later.
Ranking: Any who follow the dark path and are oath sworn or of metallurgy may wear black.
Attainment: Mastery must be proven and confirmed. Levels of ranking must be gained by experience and evidence.
Red: Justice. First. Blood. Power. Change.
Associations: Reality must begin as we intend to continue, with strength of love as might, the emboldenment of right as justice and law to govern the selection of variance of evolution and perseverance of hope and attainment. First contains last. To begin we must be wise; this is how hope is nurtured.
Representations: Morality, strength, passion, chaos, rada, the dragon, selection,.
Inheritance: Those of the Blood are of the blood. Those who bearn the gifts of rada may be of the path of rada. Those who are called to the path of justice may be of the path of justice. Ou ae, ae rua.
Science: Those who are called to this path are not only as above in relation to justice and war, but also those who study and know of first movements. Red frequency, rada, nuclear forces, the pattern of genetic selection and mutation, the maximalisation of the pattern including the study of suns, those who understanding the logic and mathematics of chaos such as hexamal theory and that which pertains. This is also related to those who express or invigorate or incite the passions.
Ranking: any who are called to this path may wear a red belt.
Attainment: Depending of which variation of field you operate in there are various established methods of ranking; such as the red robes of judges. Further you may independently study and prove your ability and understanding. Any may be oath sworn to justice and uphold this as duty. Any, possibly, may note they call the passions but there is expectation that this is conducted justly.
Orange: Creation. Sound. Movement.
Associations: Here is the securement of volume which creates both upheaval and possibility of actualisation, and the early forms of realisation which in turn secure dimension as a possibility to be expressed within.
Representation: Freedom. Music. Heat. Earthquakes. Controlled chaos.
Inheritance: As culture developed some peoples mastered this path, some of whom are arguably inheritors such as the Tibetan and Shaolin monks.
Science: Those who are called to this path understand the movements of the harmonisation of the frequencies in ae, logi, and phy such as oneness of spirit in movement, the seismic activity of the earth and planet development, the lesser nuclear force, sound in volume, distribution, frequency and radio waves and, of course, music. This also pertains to how fundamental logi is coded into functions in computer programming and physical structures.
Ranking: For those who join a particular temple the ranking is well established. Any who are called to this path may wear an orange belt.
Attainment: This must be proven, within variant systems. Independent study is welcome. If you are called to music the Druids still have in place the Order of Bards and Ovates; here there is traditional transmutation of orange to the brown of wood such as instruments are made from. There is also a somewhat acceptance of higher ranking established by popular skill.
Yellow: In sacred understanding yellow is separated from the pattern as in nature yellow often denotes poison, such as the markings on snakes and the colour of flowers. This becomes the Yellow Book and ought to be a restricted study. This is why yellow is used on hazard and poison warnings.
Ranking: No one is allowed to wear yellow; with the exception of mastery of the understanding and in conjunction as a representation in a different predominant path. Usually this would never be worn, but perhaps signified in book cover or warning label. (However, if you are seeking to represent ambient or gold it is acceptable to choose a yellow which is akin.)
Ambient: The gold of the world.
Associations: This is the natural enlightenment that welcomes all.
Representation: Joy. Brilliance. Relaxation. Natural.
Inheritance: This translates to natura which is all shades of cream, pale browns, tans, browns, amber, and golden. Everyone is natura. Everyone may wear natura, and amongst the Druids and Tribes it is traditional to make natura robes which are then dyed to look as if they are gilden with sunshine.
Science: Natural light, photosynthesis and the products of trees such as amber. The shared unity and tones of all flesh. Temperate and balanced ph. Pottery.
Attainment: All
Green: Life. The Forest that is home.
Associations: Forestry. Gardening. Medicine.
Representations: Growth. Arables. Joining. Sustenance. Nurture. Work and rest. Healing. Continuance.
Inheritance: Some people are known as green kin either becuase they have ancestry of the black giants from the Isles or the have the gift of green fingers.
Science: Anything which relates to green biology and environmental sciences inclusive of habitat care and creation. Aromylls. Nutrition. Potions. Arboration.
Ranking: Any who are called to this path may wear the green belt.
Attainment: This is demonstrated. If you have the gift it will be obvious and you may also wear a touch of gold.
Blue: The River.
Associations: Seafaring, astronomy, fishing, dyes and weaving. Hydraulics. Wind and wave.
Representations: Transmutative, development and mechanism.
Inheritance: Those with the Sight may note this.
Science: This path relates to gases and bonding in particle physics, the arrangement of the solar systems in astrophysics, and so to the creation of complex therums across science and mechanics and textiles, the weather and climate in environmental sciences, the effects of energies such as electric, anything relating to water from marine biology to tidal power to dyes, the creation, management and sailing of ships, and fishing inclusive of population management of resources.
Ranking: anyone called to this path may wear a blue belt. Only Priestesses who are druid, mothers, and have recognition may wear the blue robes. Those who have recognition of attainment may bearn woad tattoos.
Attainment: In many fields this is already noted, including the council of seafarers. However if you are dedicated to this path as a witch or coven leader and have worked toward independent attainment and demonstrated to the pagan and intellectual community it is granted to you that you may wear the blue (if you are female and mother); you must swear oath to the Goddess. Please note that in the past you could only wear these robes if you had attained a high enough kenning to create woad. As this secret, for the most part, as been lost I will allow this. Up to now many people have not dared to make this claim and where there have been false claiments they were stripped. A blue belt or tattoo if you are called: a blue robe if you a truly dedicated and oath sworn only. There are particular schools of martial arts who may wear the blue and they are extremely selective on who they accept to train; you need to be able to fly or shape the wind.
The Light: may only be attained with clarity and excellence.
Blue: Foca
This is of advance intellect, the ability to perceive clearly the diagrams of principles and theruums and to enact them as graphs or abilities such as high percentile proprioception, balance and grace. This is where the sacred becomes near perfect in reality. This is intellect. To know.
Green; Rejuvenation.
This is the advance understanding of life, the ability to create and understand life from the bio-engineered, to to the operations of life from creation to being to sustenance including all round healing of mind, body and spirit. This is joy. To see.
Pink: Refinement.
This is the advance of totality in harmony, the ability to know all your gifts and shape them toward betterment, to enact the goodness of being arisen in spirit. To embrace freedom and love, and to find where possible ways to ensure this continuance for everyone in peace. To hear.
Attainment: This must be lived.
History: These colours may be woven trough those of other branches where there is attainment of the highest form or oath sworn dedication to this lived existence such as the Orders of Knights; see Order of Catherine who fought so valiantly to end slavery during the colonial period.
The Arts
Peace should always be enacted and the arts are viewed as the highest forms of achievement.
Blue; In the theatre this represents script and poetry as expression.
Lilac: In the theatre this represents the expression of emotion in acting and dance, though natura is the traditional colour for the clothing of dancers.
Blush: In performance this represents the arousal of the sense including singing.
Attainment in the Branches
This is further noted in any branch where excellence of mastery is achieved in any given circumstance. Where belts denote the branch and following of the path they may be decorated, or other pieces of jewellery given with attainment in accordance with gems of those colours or the colours of light, or metals as listed below. Or, when known, metals treated with said colours. In particular metallurgy is decorated so.
Gold: Gold is highest, found within and gift given. This also pertains to those who speak.
Silver: Silver is brightest, found above like the moon. This pertains to pattern.
Copper: Copper is furthest, found below in the deepen. This also pertains to the connections of all.
So depending on your calling and skillsets there are five you may choose from: black, red, orange, green and blue. Or perhaps you find these paths are not for you and choose the theatre. It is typical to start on one path, with introduction to all, and find that you have correspondence in others and so as you reach attainments your belt may become woven with multiple colours and well decorated.
May you find your path good and true and become a strong branch.
NB: The paths are not restricted to sex or gender, accept how described above. In future if there is a sex based difference I will use the term male or female, or the associated titles with the variative sexes. If I am referring to gender I will use the terms men and women, boy and girl; and you attribute the one which is appropriate for you, inclusive of trans people. In all likelihood I will only specify trans if this is in regard to the trans temples, socio-political or of Pride.
In regard to the term Two Spirit. This is not accepted as a term that means trans. Two Spirit is a person who is able to communicate with spirit, is associated with a genetic difference, and is recognised and ascribed at birth by the elders. You cannot become Two Spirit. There has been some confusion due to the fact that some Two Spirit people have variative genders inclusive of ones we would modernly describe as trans. Some of these people were very well known in the civil rights movement and the development of Pride. As with any other person it is up to an individual to identify themselves as trans or any other gender.
.In regard to mothers. As described above certain rankings and attainment are after one has become a mother and has birthed a child. This is an ancient requirement and will not be broken. Apart from that exception, and that of the title Dark Mother, I will use the term mother to apply to anyone who is a mother whether by birthing, adoption or marriage/partnership, inclusive of trans mothers. The same applies to fathers.
