Grey colour Symbols and Symbolic

• Gray is the color of ash and fog, and the Hebrews covered themselves with ashes to express intense pain.

• The gray of some foggy weather gives an impression of sadness, melancholy, boredom, it is what is commonly called "a gray time" and we say "make gray mine" to express a forbidding air.

• But if the gray has many references "gray" , it remains the color that we are still looking for, because we lived our first years in the gray, because the newborn lives in the gray, the very one that we see eyes closed, and he becomes aware of the world of color during his first three years.
