Blue is the color of the sky and sea. It is often associated with depth and stability. It symbolizes trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, intelligence, faith, truth, and heaven. Blue is considered beneficial to the mind and body.

In Islam, and in the Shinto religion of Japan, it is worn by pilgrims; and by the Brahmins in India.
