Yellow

A wide yellow sky and a small yellow object do different work. Compare the Fool’s bright sky with the cliff at his feet, and the Sun’s open scene. Brightness does not guarantee safety.

The Fool: pale yellow sky, with the cliff and dog still in view.

The Sun: warm light across the figure and setting.

These are contextual reading associations, not a universal color code. Some Golden Dawn ritual schemes associate red, yellow and blue with fire, air and water; they do not fix the meaning of every colored object. Other colors also vary by tradition and printing. Sources distinguish contemporary reading experience, Waite’s descriptions and historical ritual schemes.
