Anyhow. There are a few topics about the Istari here, but having not read HoME or UT, I shall ask in the hopes that my simple question may be answered by the multitude of scholars who abide here in the "Smart People's Forum".
What do you think are the symbolisms behind the colours of the Wizards? White, Grey, Brown, and I believe I heard Blue. (I don't know, as I haven't read the above books.) Plus Saruman's tie-dye. Freakin' hippie. Uh... right.
I've got my own theories, of course, but I want to hear yours instead.
I apologise if there is another topic in this genre... if it's not one I currently frequent, I don't know if it's there.
