Symbolism of Yellow Flowers - a photo on Flickriver

            Yellow flowers have held many meanings over time and across the globe. In ancient Mayan culture, yellow flowers represented abundance because they had a similar color to corn. 
In China, yellow flowers symbolize that which is sacred. What’s more, in Mexico, the Mexican Marigold has a specific role as the flor de los muertos, or the flower of the dead, in the Day of the Dead celebrations. 
Yellow flowers have a powerful meaning in Thailand as well. The country’s national flower is the ratchaphruek, or the Cassia fistula, a tree that produces long, golden blooms. 
The ratchaphruek flower is considered a symbol of royalty and a potent ingredient in Ayurvedic medicine. It is also a representative flower of the state of Kerala in India and the North Central Province in Sri Lanka.
