The five colors represent the elements, and the Five Pure Lights and are arranged from left to right in specific order: blue, white, red, green, and then yellow. Different elements are associated with different colors for specific traditions, purposes and sadhana. Blue symbolizes sky/space, white symbolizes air/wind, red symbolizes fire, green symbolizes water, and yellow symbolizes earth. According to Traditional Tibetan medicine, health and harmony are produced through the balance of the five elements. Like all prayer flags, these may be displayed horizontally, vertically or at an angle. When the wind catches the flags, the prayer will go out to all sentient beings. The colors of the flags, blue, white, red, yellow and green are traditional and each color is symbolic: blue symbolizes sky/space, white symbolizes air/wind, red symbolizes fire, green symbolizes water, and yellow symbolizes earth. There is perhaps no simpler way to create good merit in this troubled world of ours than to put prayer flags up for the benefit of other living beings. Prayer flags are not just pretty pieces of colored cloth with funny writing on them. The ancient Buddhist prayers, mantras and powerful symbols displayed on them produce a spiritual vibration that is activated and carried by the wind across the countryside. All beings that are touched by the wind are uplifted and a little happier. The silent prayers are blessings spoken on the breath of nature. Just as a drop of water can permeate the ocean, prayers dissolved in the wind extend to fill all of space. *** View more great items Auspicious days for hanging prayer flags in 2022: 01/12, 01/23, 02/16, 02/20, 02/26, 02/28, 03/12, 03/23, 03/27, 03/28, 04/11, 04/25, 04/29, 05/03, 05/11, 05/16, 05/28, 06/09, 06/14, 06/25, 06/26, 07/23, 08/01, 08/07, 08/21, 08/25, 09/05, 09/20, 10/05, 11/18, 11/20, 12/03, 12/18, 12/26.
