Next we are going to see the meanings of three tinctures:

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

2) ARGENT (Silver): Purity, Integrity, Obedience, Firmness, Surveillance, Eloquence and Expiration.

3) PURPLE: Justice, Wit, Truth, Greatness, Wisdom and Love; those who wear this color are obliged to defend the Prince defending ecclesiastical people.

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

* FIG: The Fig Tree or its leaves symbolize the State Benefactors.

* ANGIO: The Chief of Angio, belonging to Italian heraldry, represents a political alliance with the Welf party (derived from Welf, Duke of Bavaria) who were loyal to the Pope.

* GYRON: The Gyron represents Favor.

* SHELL: The Shell symbolizes the Knight who marches to the borders of his states to widen them by fighting; it is also a symbol of Pilgrim.

* CHAIN: The Chain generally means Captivity suffered by the defense of the King or the Homeland.

* ARROW: The Fess represents Readiness (for battle); if depicted with a cross, represents an affliction.

* SUN: The Sun is a symbol of Sovereigns and Kings, those who with their power vivify the entire State; It is an emblem of Eternity, Greatness, Power, Providence, Illustrious Nobility and Magnificence.
