I'd love to be whatever color Jesus eyes were, when He walked the earth Son of God.
 
well I think of myself as dead to myself and alive in Christ so my color would be "CAPUT MORTUUM."

If you're one of those super cool Latin scholars, or maybe one who knows a little about alchemy, you may have heard the term caput mortuum. In Latin, the words translate into "Worthless remains" or "Dead head"..The color name comes from the variety of purples and brownish colors that are created when iron oxide, A.K.A. rust is oxidized. It is said that the color was widely used when painter's would paint important people or religious figures such as patrons. It's a highly popular color used in dying paper, as well as oil paintings. ...."apart from Him I am "Worthless remains"...but with Him all things are possible in this "Dead head"..smile.:rolleyes:.

I agree, the colour of royalty - we are a royal priesthood.:)


Why Is the Color Purple Associated With Royalty?


The color purple has been associated with royalty, power and wealth for centuries. In fact,
Queen Elizabeth I forbad anyone except close members of the royal family to wear it.
Purple's elite status stems from the rarity and cost of the dye originally used to produce it.
Purple fabric used to be so outrageously expensive that only rulers could afford it.
The dye initially used to make purple came from the Phoenician trading city of Tyre, which
is now in modern-day Lebanon. Fabric traders obtained the dye from a small mollusk that
was only found in the Tyre region of the Mediterranean Sea.


A lot of work went into producing the dye, as more than 9,000 mollusks were needed to create
just one gram of Tyrian purple. Since only wealthy rulers could afford to buy and wear the color , it
became associated with the imperial classes of Rome, Egypt, and Persia. Purple also came to
represent spirituality and holiness because the ancient emperors, kings and queens that wore
the color were often thought of as gods or descendents of the gods.


Sometimes, however, the dye was too expensive even for royalty. Third-century Roman emperor
Aurelian famously wouldn't allow his wife to buy a shawl made from Tyrian purple silk because it
literally cost its weight in gold. Talk about sticker shock.
