Next we are going to see the meanings of three tinctures:
1) GULES: Red color that symbolizes Strength, Victory, Daring and Highness.
2) ARGENT (Silver): Purity, Integrity, Obedience, Firmness, Surveillance, Eloquence and Expiration.
3) OR (Gold): Nobility, Magnanimity, Wealth, Power, Light, Constancy and Wisdom.
Next lets look at the characteristics of some figures that we can find in heraldry and crests:
* 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.
* HEART: The Heart is a symbol of Vigilant Vassal. In its fiery color, it demonstrates Warmth of mind and loving expression of Affection.
* CABRIO: The Cabrio symbolizes the boots and spurs, and for this reason it was granted as an adornment of the shield to the Knight who was wounded from the combat in his legs.
* TURTLE: The Turtle is one of the most noble figures, being a symbol of the Knight who retires late from combat, facing his enemy until the last moment, trusting in his own strength.
* GOAT: The Goat symbolizes one who wins through politics rather than war.
* HERON: The Heron represents Prudence in preventing dangers, guarding against them.
* WINDMILL: The Windmills and their Wheels are a symbol of Obedience, because they face the violence of the current and obey the movement that it prints.
* EMPIRE: The Head of the Empire, belonging to Italian heraldry, represents a political alliance with the Ghibelline party (derived from the Hohenstaufen, Lords of Waibling) who were loyal to the Emperor.
