I have already briefly mentioned the conditions that determine the colors of December above. Now let's focus on the main colors of the week of Christmas, which are the main determinants of the colors of this period.

Red

Although red has different meanings in different cultures, it is actually a color with high energy in general. We already know what it means in Christian and western culture.

Let's see what it means in other cultures:

China: This is a geography with a very deep history. And its red color signifies long life. There are cases where it also represents happiness. Although it has similarities with Western culture, the closed structure of China has attributed this color in different meanings.

India: India is a society that has interacted with China for thousands of years. Therefore, although it has similar cultural motifs, the color red represents love and affection in this geography.

Green

Range colors include different shades of green, among which the most prominent color groups are those that include the Christmas tree. The pine tree is generally preferred as a Christmas tree.

Green, which has a very important meaning in other societies, is also one of the important colors of the religion of Islam.

Representing nature and growth, this color is naturally relaxing.

White

Due to the climate, it is normal to see snowy weather in December, at least on the Tropic of Cancer. White is one of the defining colors of the month of December, as the great power of the media is in this part of the world.

In general, this color represents purity and cleanliness. Because it is a color that is a little more difficult to keep clean compared to other colors. Respect is one of the meanings attributed to this color.
