5. Blue for the Above Direction representing help and assistance from Father Sky and other Supernatural Spirits.

6. Green for the Below Direction representing help and assistance from Mother Earth and other Earth Spirits.

7. Purple for the Within Direction, representing Great Mystery which is the connection between your spirit to all of Creation.
