1) SABLE: Black color that symbolizes Prudence, Sadness, Rigor, Honesty and Obedience.

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

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

* LAUREL: The Laurel is a symbol of Good Fame, and due to the perpetual greenness of its leaves, of Imperecedera Victoria.

* PELICAN: The Pelican is a symbol of the Charitable and Pious Lord towards his vassals.

* LANCE: The Lance represents Strength with Prudence.

* TIGER: The Tiger represents Fierceness and Valour; Resentment; Dangerous if aroused.
