Bard Judith	Folklore: Are bright colors evil? (51* d)	RE: Folklore: Are bright colors evil?	09 Dec 05
GREEN: In Anglo-Euro cultures, green has a long tradition (from medieval Britain) of being associated with the fey, magical, or supernatural realms. Women dressed in green were Sidhe, elves, faeries... green eyes were associated with were-cats or were-foxes... green clothing was worn by fairy folk (such as leprechauns) or outlaws (Robin Hood and his band) and so on. (Side note: Green eyes are still considered mysterious, seductive, and more appealing than the commoner brown or blue!) Overall, green was not to be trusted - not exactly evil, but certainly not suggestive of either sacred purity or secular mundanity!
