Roots in the sun

Does strength have a color? Or rather, does one color in particular embody it? And what sign is strength? Virility, for example, seems too narrow in its definition.

On the other hand, as stated by great thinker Hildegard, Viriditas — the principle of life stemming from Nature’s green — has neither gender nor apparent limits. Viriditas “has its roots in the Sun”, she wrote nine centuries ago. But today this term seems untranslatable: it is neither merely ‘greenness’ nor lushness, but something that speaks of its birth, its color, one’s evergreen life.
