The yellow belt represents gold, meaning truth. It is important that an individual be truthful to themselves, as it eliminates conceitedness and introduces personal contentment.

The green belt represents growth. Growth is normally associated with changes that we must accept even if they may cause feelings of insecurity. Growth is essential for living.

The blue belt represents the sky or the ocean. The color blue depicts the mental depth or maturity of an individual. We cannot see how deep the sea or how vast the sky is, but that does not mean that's all there is.

The red belt represents the sun's brightness and the physical acts of the individual. It is only through physical activity that an individual is given identity through their mental depth and capabilities.

The black belt combines all of the belt colors and thus represents all of the various concepts of each belt color. It represents the commitment to the value system of the colors and the dignity that comes from pride in oneself.
