The Meaning of Green
One of the reasons it is such a popular color for jewelry is because it is associated with symbolism and superstition. Native Americans associated the color with nature, healing, and harmony. During times of war, they used it in their war paint to represent endurance. They used the plans around them to make paint and jewelry that they could wear to gain the properties the color represented to them. Green is also traditionally associated with money, finances, and jealousy. Many people assume this association is because money is green. You may have heard the expression that someone is green with envy too. Green is such a luxurious and coveted color that many people believe is represents what so many people want, and only a very few can have. This is another reason so many people wear it with pride.
The Culture of Green
Just as the Native Americans associated the color with nature and plants, so do many people in modern times. Many organizations and businesses use it in their logos or names. People or businesses that have “gone green” are often focused on recycling, sustainability, and protecting the planet. Because being green is considered responsible and trendy, the color is associated with positive actions, as are people who wear the color. Green is also considered to be a relaxing color. It is often associated with restfulness and peace. It’s a dominant color in nature, so it’s easy to find the color all around you. It’s also believed to make people smarter, enhance vision, and soothe the mind. It is even thought to help fight depression, anxiety, and nervousness. In many cultures, it is is believed to be lucky, and it’s the national color of Ireland and St. Patrick’s Day. Green is believed to create balance and empathy.
