2) OR (Gold): Nobility, Magnanimity, Wealth, Power, Light, Constancy and Wisdom.

3) AZURE: Blue color that symbolizes Justice, Zeal, Truth, Loyalty, Charity and Beauty.

Next lets look at the characteristics of some figures that we can find in heraldry and crests:

* LEOPARD: The Leopard represents the Courageous and Endeavoring Knight who has carried out some daring enterprise using cunning rather than force to complete it.

* LION: The Lion symbolizes the Generously Warrior Spirit, adorned with the qualities of Vigilance, Dominion, Sovereignty, Majesty and Bravery.

* BRIDGE: The Bridge symbolizes Alliance and Union.

* THISTLE: The Thistle symbolizes in Heraldry a heart nobly humble, but so careful of its honor, that it defends with its sword the luster of its lineage.

* ROOK: The Rooks symbolize the Captain who defends his fortress.

* FUSIL: The Fusil is a symbol of Righteousness, Prudence and Equity and of the conveniences achieved through these virtues; it serves as a hieroglyph for those who gathered many goods using lawful and upright means.

* SCEPTER: The Scepter represents Dignity.
