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

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

3) GULES: Red color that symbolizes Strength, Victory, Daring and Highness.

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

* DRAGON: The Dragon symbolizes the most exquisite Care and Vigilance.

* SALTIRE: The Saltire symbolizes the Banner or script of the leader undefeated in combat.

* PEACOCK: The Peacock, by its head denotes Prudence; for his chest, of gold and sapphire, Loyalty, Fidelity and Zeal; in the hidden and submissive of his steps, Secret, and in the terribly out of tune voice of his singing, Terror of enemies.

* MARTLET: The Martlets mean the number of defeated enemies and are the distinctive mark of the fourth son.

* PALM: The Palm Tree symbolizes Victory and Triumph.
